Welcome from Colorado!
I loved riding around Idaho this past summer. I'll definitely be back!




Funny story: Back when I was a whole lot younger, I was given the nickname "Spudman"
One of my first jobs was working in the Kitchen of a large Grocery Store. One of my main duties was cooking huge quantities of Potatoes in these large steam-Vats every day.
They used them to make Potato-Salad that was sold in the Deli.
After awhile, everyone there was calling me Spudman!

Thanks Stefan. Owning BMW's all my life I'm used to "bending over" to appease the search for the perfect motorcycle. Realizing, that with the different riding I do, that goal is not attainable. Because adventure riding is my biggest vice I just resign myself to being a walking stimulus package to the moto economy. I'll keep the GSA as the goto bike but I have to say the S10 is close if you set it up right.
