I already got scolded for making a post without an intro, so here you go.

This is a bit of a love story. I dated "K" in high school and college. We had a serious relationship but we were just kids. After my marriage of 11 years failed, "K" and I are back together. We've been together for about a year now and things are so much better than either of us could have imagined.

I didn't have a car in college. I rode an old xs650. K even somehow fell asleep on the back of it one night. I've been a dirt rider for the last few years. I've got a yz 250 in the garage.

Anyway, "k" and I got to talking about a month ago about dreams, traveling, bikes, etc. She's a bit of world traveler. I'm pretty much a dumb redneck.

So, last week, "k" bought us a s10. Naturally, it's been the coldest weekend of the year. We managed a little more than 200 miles this weekend.

Looking forward to putting some serious miles on this bike. All of the luggage should be here soon. Can't wait to load it down and skip town.

Here are 2 pics from today. The second one caused some serious stares from traffic driving by. We just pulled over at a scenic spot to warm up a bit and K decided to lay down in the sunshine.










The bike is fantastic.

I should say thank you to the members of this forum. You have been invaluable during the buying process and our brief ownership. We look forward to contributing.

Welcome on, Bloodline. Good story. Glad things are working out for you. And glad you guys got yourselves a Super Tenere. Do I see siblings in your future? Another Tenere, perhaps??


Hope you get some serious riding soon. Four feet of snow here, but it will go quickly .. once it starts to go. ::004:: . R. ::022::

Welcome aboard Bloodline and K, you will love your Tenere about as much as I love your city of Charleston and that's alot! Charleston is much like my City of St. Augustine except bigger. You have great restaurants there like we do here. Enjoy your Super T ::021:: ::022::

It just seemed like most of the intros were, well, boring.

I got flamed for not introducing myself, so I figured I'd give a proper intro...

Congrats and welcome to the group. I grew up in Charleston before moving to SoCal. Beautiful city you live in!
