Gary N. Posted October 6, 2019 #4 Posted October 6, 2019 Hi everyone. Read the new comments daily but guilty of not participating too much. Still riding the Black Cherry '06 (that's the fastest color you know). Just got home from the hospital yesterday after having my second knee replacement surgery. Sure hope it goes as well as the first one did. So I won't be riding for a few months now but still hoping to go to Hill Country again this winter. I'm taking the bike with me and crossing my fingers that I'll be able to ride again by then.

M61A1MECH Posted October 6, 2019 #6 Posted October 6, 2019 Still here, still riding my Goldwing, tweeking it as I go with little mods here and there. Tried retirement, not sure I liked it , went back to work part time 20 hours a week, with a 4 day weekend every other week. Headed to Helen, GA next weekend.
bigbob Posted October 6, 2019 #7 Posted October 6, 2019 It's been A long time since I posted last. Cant ride no more due to failing eyesight, but I still like to come here to see what is happening in venturerider world. ridesafe: Bigbob
GaryZ Posted October 6, 2019 #8 Posted October 6, 2019 Still alive and kicking. The Beast has not been ridden in a couple of years. It is waiting for me to build a single carb manifold. The '92 hasn't seen a lot of use this year due to lots of other demands for my time. I have a heater for the shop and I hope to get stuff done over the winter. Safe riding to all.
pope3567 Posted October 6, 2019 #9 Posted October 6, 2019 Hello All...been awhile since I posted, been too busy riding before the winter rains set in.

IH Truck Guy Posted October 6, 2019 #10 Posted October 6, 2019 Hi Don, just been busy with life and work. Thanks for doing this.
EtRider Posted October 6, 2019 #11 Posted October 6, 2019 Still riding 2013 Venture. Last time was out in South Dakota area. Enjoyed it very much but now maybe looking at Trike option or maybe even a Spyder. (Carl would be happy ) .
Guest divey Posted October 6, 2019 #12 Posted October 6, 2019 I get my daily fix (several times a day) from this Site and do post occasionally. The time and money saved from belonging to this forum is amazing, not to mention the camaraderie. Still riding my 08 RSV trike.
Skid Posted October 6, 2019 #13 Posted October 6, 2019 Count me in! I’m doing well and still riding the Midnight. Skid Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
RedRider Posted October 6, 2019 #14 Posted October 6, 2019 I'm in. Haven't been posting much lately, life is busy. RR

Bigbill53 Posted October 6, 2019 #16 Posted October 6, 2019 I had a wrong test done on me but it found an aneurysm in my brain, surgery on 11/4 .
KevinR Posted October 6, 2019 #17 Posted October 6, 2019 Haven't ridden the Midnight Venture much in the last couple of years as I've been unsuccessfully trying to sell it, but I put a new battery and fuel pump in it this summer and took a nice ride on it a couple of weeks ago. Love riding it, thought about triking it but at $13K to convert, it's not happening. Maybe a sidecar for the wife? She likes the idea.
Sylvester Posted October 6, 2019 #18 Posted October 6, 2019 Yes I am still here and post often. Haven't ridden much this year or last due to arthritis. Will sell the 02 RSMV and 80 1100 XS Special next spring. May look at a Spyder touring model if it fits me.
YamaDuck Posted October 6, 2019 #19 Posted October 6, 2019 I am fine. Today is my Birthday I made it to 67. I ride a 2010 HD Electra Glide Ultra Limited now. Don't like it as much as my old MM but at least I can still buy new parts when I need them. I don't ride much but do ride one long trip a year. Take care everyone, Harry
Prairiehammer Posted October 6, 2019 #20 Posted October 6, 2019 Yo, Don. Still around, of course, always trying to help the poor ones with their First Gen Ventures. Us old timers have to stick together. Haven't ridden The Tuxedo for four years, but still keep it raring to go, just in case.
Red Ryder Posted October 6, 2019 #21 Posted October 6, 2019 Hey Don, we are doing good, and riding every chance we can with our Michigan weather. Either on the 2003 RSV-Hannigan Trike, 2008 Harley Ultra-105th Anniversary, or 1988 Honda Goldwing gl1500 with California sidecar Friendship III. Still love to ride, and feel the people on this forum you created are some of the best in the world. Later-
gwashorn Posted October 6, 2019 #22 Posted October 6, 2019 WOW, it's been awhile for me. Have not ridden much on my '89 VR. Between knee replacements and shoulder surgeries, it was iffy to get out. had the bike totally reconditioned on carbs running and such but let her set too much and once again, darn ethanol and running ragged from sticky carb. Trying to get her clean again but guessing I will have to sell her if this next shoulder surgery keeps me down too much. Thanks for keeping the web going.
stanG Posted October 6, 2019 #23 Posted October 6, 2019 Doing great. Having sold the blonde 83 last year I've been riding an 04 midnight venture and loving it. I don't check in to the forum very often but I do keep track of what's going on. Always a great source of information and a great bunch of guys and gals.
Whoweo Posted October 6, 2019 #24 Posted October 6, 2019 Just took a 6400 mile ride to the west coast pulling my home made camper
Rabbit14 Posted October 6, 2019 #25 Posted October 6, 2019 Been super busy putting miles on before the weather goes to complete garbage...
