Hello all, Andrew Byrd here. Long distance endurance riding enthusiast. Slave to the job, so when I find ride time, I prefer to stay on the bike and go far.  I like competing in Rallies - The Void, Mason/Dixon2020, Rock-n-ride, IBR.
Considering attending the National Rally this year, However it falls on the same week as the COG Nat Rally. We shall see. Hope to see and meet some fellow members out on the road.   

Thanks for taking the time to read,
Andrew (aka - Byrdman)

Welcome!  We have quite a few members that are also LD riders, or have been in the past.  A few that have done the IBR.  If you get the time off, try to make some of our regional rallies.  We may not do super long days while at them but we make up for it in the quality of the riding that gets done.  Hope to meet you in person somewhere along the line.

However, it goes it should be a good one.  TM

Welcome aboard Andrew, I see you're in the Columbus area, many fine members of the club there. Once you have a blue book (membership directory) look thru it for some contact info. Others from that area may help you out.

If you have just a portion of day try to make it to Marietta during the Mail Pouch Fly By Week in late August, lots of the Ohio folks will be there along with people from other areas.
