[Robert Ford]

Greetings and thanks for having me. I found a reference to this site on the Road Runner Magazine forums and thought I'd stop by and check it out. Glad I did! P^

I've been riding for about 20 years and started M/C camping last summer while touring around the Blue Ridge Parkway and points north. Here's my bike all loaded just prior to departure:

Had an absolute blast and will be doing more this summer when I take off for a three week trip with a very loose schedule, though I wont be on the Boulevard in the picture above. Instead, I'll be on this beautiful 2009 FJR I picked up last August.

I hope to learn a lot and maybe pass along a nugget or two that I've picked up.

I plan on leaving home on June 3rd and wont have to be back at work until the 27th. :D

Other than dropping the wife off in upstate NY, and spending a couple of days in southern NH visiting some family, I have no real destination in mind, just a journey.
