Hello from Chicago

[ADVon2Wheels]

Hi folks. Glad to have found this forum!

I live in Chicago and usually ride a 2002 BMW R1150 GS Adventure. Just a little bigger than the Trail 125. I'm 6'4" 220 lbs so I'm sure I'll look like a big gorilla on the Honda. But the main purpose for purchasing it is to sling it on the back of my homebuilt teardrop trailer. That way I'll have something fun to ride when going on a firewood or s'mores supply run. And then there's the dream of letting my boys ride it when they get a little older.

My order is in; deposit paid. Now let's see if it arrives before the snow falls again...

Best,
John

Thanks! It was my "covid mental health project." It is a kit from Chesapeake Light Craft in Maryland. Great company. I've built a couple of their sea kayaks too.
