Just wondering if anyone is in the Milwaukee area. I just moved here from St. Paul for college. I don't have the bike here yet but am planning on having it before spring. |

Hi! I live about 35 mi. SW of Milwaukee and come into the city every day for work at the Milwaukee County Transit System. Ride the bus, we need the business! No bike yet either. Looking at an XB12S. |

Carparts, check out the Storm Fronts section. Then go to the Belle City BRAG group and the Brew City group. Both are VERY active. Also Uke's. So join them at a meeting or read the posts on their sections to meet them. Both are Milwaukee area. |

No I'm not a keyboard wiz... I still"peck" the keys, use the mouse I'm ok. So typo's happen to me. I was trying to tell Carparts that DaveS at Appleton Buell is the man in Buell sales. |

Hey, if you want to make it to the next meeting, we'll figure a way to pick ya up. When are ya getting your bike down here? If you're worried about winter storage, we could probably help ya there also... Now that we only have two bikes in the shed(last year, we actually had 6 Buells in the shed at one time). Good choice on the ME degree. I wish I did that when I was younger. But kinda did the "work from the ground up" thingy. So now I sit at a desk, drawin' pretty 3D pictures all day |

Yeah that would be awesome! Ill have to check if ive got anything that day, im in a couple of clubs and orgs here. The only thing keeping the bike at home is that i dont have anywhere to park it close to campus, but if i got it here before winter id be interested in youre shed. Also my cell number is 612-720-8806. |

Carparts we'll hopefully meet and ride, and I'm glad you're looking forward to it, but while Mr Grumpy better watch out for me, you have no worries !! You're young enough to be my son, actually younger since my son is 24 !! Man where does time go !! |
