Just got my 06 Red FZ6 last week. I'm in Uptown, Minneapolis. We should do some riding sometime soon! Send me a PM and we could set something up.

The 17th weekend is no good for me. Having a birthday bash in the Brainerd area. The best days that work for me (at least through early August) is Monday day or evening, and Tuesday during the day. Otherwise I work Wednesday afternoon through Saturday evening every week, and all my Sunday's are booked.

I do go to a weekly meet for the Subaru club I'm in on Tuesday evenings at around 7 at Lake Calhoun's south beach. I bring my bike at least half the time to it, so if anyone wants to ever stop down and chat that would be cool.

Robaho, I work in Coon Rapids near the Olive Garden. Perhaps we could go on a run some Wednesday before I have to work or a Saturday evening? I grew up in the Blaine area, but am not familiar with any fun roads in the area.

I am booked on the 17th as well.
I don't have any plans for the 25th yet, so that would work for me! I would have to get up REALLY early to make it to Roch for an 8am ride....

I am free most evenings after 6pm, and on most weekends.

Moving back to Mpls in August, my new (to me) FZ6 is at a friend's place in Rochester until I get back. Sold the 650R up here in Canada.

I have family in Rochester and Stewartville, so I'm around all the time. I'll be in touch once I get in and settled.

I'm in Minneapolis. I've been hitting up the ABC roads in wisconsin lately. Otherwise I like to do the parkways around the mississippi.

If anyone wants to ride locally, let me know.

I'm finally settled in here in Mpls. Those of you in town, if you see this, it is me.

Busy this week and taking a road trip with my dad on the weekend, but early next week may head down toward welch village and goodhue county Rd 7 and 19, maybe come back up on the WI side.

Went for a weekend ride with my Dad. Met in Wabasha, rode down thru SW WI, and then back up thru SE MN.

Notable roads:

WI Hwy 108 south out of Mindoro WI
Goodhue County 3,2, and 5 - turn off MN 58 near Hay Creek, end in Lake City
County 26 east out of Rushford MN to Money Creek. I ran it the other direction, but it was good.
IA Hwy 364 south out of Lansing, IA.
