I see the "what do ya'll do for a living" thread is alive and well...got me thinking if everyone seems so willing to share...?

Besides going into every ID profile...is there a quick survey we can do to locate riders from your area? Might be nice to find fellow riders right in my backyard that I didn't even know were there!

I'll start....Hartland, WI.

And...it's not snowing...yet!

Map, and oh by the way, great idea, but that info is in the profile.

<----------------------------

What would be cool though is your favorite riding route or eating establishment.

Riding the Rt 5 to the Jamestown Ferry and back up RT 10 is a locale favorite ride to the east of Richmond. 

Virginia Diner in Wakefield.

Varyder, there is no need to hijack the thread or get all political, or putting your favorite Diner, this is not what this site is all about!!! It is about the Vision and nothing else, this is just extraneous information for the masses. If you feel the need to add info, there are the other 2, 3, 4 or 1500 other sites you could add your favorite info, too.

I rarely go anywhere else for just joshing and typing around, I haven't been to the other sites, I may have to and check out your blog page, Chris. Maybe we can rattle around over there.

Will they close this thread?

Vinner1, my humble apologies. I got busted again by the forum police, and rightly so. I was referring to the users listing shows the location so you would be able to even sort on that to find everyone's location, or at least the ones who filled their's in right anyways.

 As far as the pollopoco somewhere in the hollers of hillybilly land, this is as chatty as I get, and I don't know why. I think it is because I get blank stares from <brand removed> riders and <brand removeders> that this is the only place I get understood, and even then I get misunderstood. So to keep in theme of the site I add this statement:

I ride a 2008 Midnight Cherry Tour Premium Victory Vision bobbed to a Street Premium and it is the best bike on the road, bar none!

I retract all other comments and leave you with just one:

Prince George, VA.

I just updated the MAP...way cool...thanks. It would be great if everybody took the time to do that. I could just look at the earth, pick a rider, and see if they wanted to ride in my neck of the woods.

The neat thing about this website and Vision riders all over the country is that....there were only 2444 bikes made this year so we don't have this huge Vision Nation yet...and if there were a few riders where I live and didn't know about...maybe I'll see them some day!

Clubford (real name? Talk to your parents, ... my God) - sounds to me you were a Bike Dealer. And I said that doesn't count.
I only have my numbers in my signature to give others a sense of understanding that I am a 'real' biker - not someone going from bar-to-bar and talking about biking....
Speaking of names, I think I should start a new thread on "Why Vision Owners Have Ridiculous Handles - i.e. pollobiggrand ".....anyone up for that?
