You are good to go now Rick!! I a number of us are heading to Maggie Valley this Saturday for the VRA Rally, and our next meeting is schedule on 8/13 in Peoria.

I would love to ride down with you all but I am VP of the local chapter of BACA (Bikers Against Child Abuse) and we have a big event with the Peoria Chiefs on the 15th. Where and what time is your meeting on 8/13

Hope you can make it!
Breese, IL here. Home of Wally's and SKI! I do work in St. Louis.

New to the road riding scene. Just bought a 2017 Vulcan S 2 weeks ago. I managed to come up with a spiral fracture of my right fibula this past weekend while playing hockey so I will be out for a while.

Looking to get involved! Let me know if anyone is close.
I'm a little North of ya

I'm in Champaign, IL. I just bought a Vulcan S too, but mine's a 2015 non-ABS.

Hello Illinois Riders -

I am a new Vulcan S owner, bought it from a dealer in Maquoketa, Iowa and drove it back to the Chicago North Shore, mostly via Routes 64, 72 and 68 in early October. Really enjoyed the trip and looking forward to more rides come next spring with warmer weather. While I have almost 30 years riding small bikes (125 - 160), this is my first full-sized and have not done any groups rides before. I did buy a Cardo Packtalk Bold com system and install it in my helmet to facilitate riding with others.

While my bike is a bit small for full bore cruising I would be interested in shorter trips with groups if anyone is contemplating organizing anything once temps are solidly over 50 f. Ride safe everyone and hope to get together in about 5 months, or maybe sooner! - Randy

That is a really pretty Vulcan Jerry. What size, year, model is she? I like the black & silver with green pinstripe! Very nice! Have you ridden that on the tail of the dragon?
It’s a 2015 900 classic been to the dragon last year for 4 days had a blast did the Lake Michigan run this year
What a great day to go for a ride even if it’s just to run errands 54 degrees and sunny let’s just say errands took a little longer today and had to run by the lake. Last time out? hope not.
Hello everyone I live in Chicago but am always looking for new places to ride to and meet new people. If anyone wants to go for a ride let me know and hopefully we can set something up
