[align=center]Hi All,[/align]
[align=center]I'm new to DSBC and to DS . I've been riding since the '60's, mostly on sport bikes and lately on a Cruiser.[/align]
[align=center]Time for a little change I guess![/align]
[align=center]

[/align]
[align=center]I bought a 2002 KLR650 A16 this week-end. Took it for a test ride and got to say it feels different than any other bike I've ever ridden. I've got some adjusting to do! I think this is going to be fun. [/align]
[align=center]I work in Sandon so will be right there when the time comes. I've done some of the roads around there on my excavator! The bike should be a little more fun althoughthe plucker power is definatly there with the hoe![/align]
[align=center]Hope to meet some of you soon.[/align]

Aaron,

Myself and my brother and his wife all ride. We all just got dual sport bikes (I just got a smaller one - yammi xt225) and we plan to get together end of July for some riding around here. I'll post something on our plans when we make them.

Hi all! New to Dualsport BC and a newbie to the sport. Just got my first bike, an 09 KLX 250s. Cant wait to get out riding and develop my skills and confidence on this bike.

Cheers all!:hb:

Hi UnbForester05:

Nice to meet you, and congratulations on a very nice bike too.

My favorite picture program is Google's "Picasa 3" which is free, small, easy to use and won't change your original file when you edit. You can select your pictures and hit the "export" button and select the size you want. It's small and quick to download and install.

It drops the smaller pics in a folder called picasa exports. I use the 1024 size which is just right for this board.

Hope I see you around although my riding is a little off-and-on lately.

Sparkle (mike)
