I was googling for this topic and found your site. I added a link to your site on mine at http://www.bikerunity.com/page/featured, I think my members could benefit from your thoughts. Keep up the good work, I’ll be returning for more.
Thanks, Fred. Really glad you find the site info useful. We’ll keep building info as long as there are those that find it valuable. Working to complete all the key “newbie” info – getting licenses, going to riding school – so we have the complete base education for the newly inspired to ride.
Then we’ll branch out. If there are topics you’d like us to address for your membership, for sure let us know.
