New member from Arizona

Hello there.
Currently riding a Kawasaky Concours 14 and Ninja 250 (daughter). I have only visited (by motorcycle) three states but hope that will change soon.
Just came back from a 2,800 mile ride between Arizona and New Mexico wile doing the Tour of Honor. Looking forward to find more rides here.
I have NEVER ridden a dirt bike, so any advise is welcome.
I'm fairly new to the LD riding, did my first SS1000 with my daughter for her 16 year birthday between AZ and CA.


Regards...

Welcome to the MSTA. We need more members from AZ.

Welcome! There are definitely some LD and dual sport folks in this group that will have lots of good advise. -JEP-

Congratulations on the SaddleSore to both you and your daughter. While the Ninja 250 may not be what comes to mind first as a LD ride, but there have been plenty of IBA rides, including several Iron Butt Rallies, completed on them over the years. You both get a big thumbs up from me (ok...a bigger one for her for riding 1,000+ miles on a 250 at age 16).
I've done a number of LD rides over the years, and I hope you will feel free to ask any specific questions on this forum or via private message.
You are more than welcome to participate on this forum, but I hope you will also consider becoming a member of the MSTA (if you aren't already). Our regional and national rallies are where you really make connections. I don't think we've had any rallies in Arizona, but we've had events in California and several in both New Mexico and Colorado. Our national rally will be in Vermont next year...that would be an epic ride from AZ.
