Morganton Riders

Unread postby CamDriver » Sun May 22, 2022 9:48 am

My name is Matt and I live in the Oak Hill part of Morganton. I currently have two bikes; Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro and BMW R1200RT.

Met some of you in Newland yesterday. Always looking for people to ride with. I am comfortable on twisties and fire roads.

Hey Matt, welcome. I have a red GT pro also. I love it but it does t get ridden much since I got the GS so I’m selling it. It’s listed on FB Marketplace and CycleTrader if you know anyone who might be interested.

I am 5'9" and 158lbs. The GS is too tall and heavy for me...

We usually meet at the Gate gas station on N Green/181.

Hi Matt, welcome to the group! Just keep an eye on the "Upcoming Rides" sub-forum, or feel free to post a ride that you'd like company on.

Nice to speak with you Saturday Matt. Hope you avoided the rain, unlike us.

Hi Matt,
I was in the group that you met in Newland at Kay’s Kitchen.
Interesting I too am 5’9” and 75 years old and love my 2020 R1250GS. [FISTED HAND SIGN]

I was supposed to be gone this weekend to RideMSTA.com’s TriSTAR event in Sparta, NC but the guy I was going with canceled so I too canceled. I hope to be riding this weekend.

I’ll look and possibly post…
