Hi, I lead Mnmsta weekday 400+mi rides in the Wisconsin Hill Country about once a month. That said I also go on shorter putts to the North of the metro on my smaller bikes ex250 or sv650. I'm 71 and no longer go on things like the "Caribou Death Ride". These are pace rides and my chicken stripes aren't too wide. Been riding 60 yrs so I know lots of good roads. "Guzzi John" Champlin,Mn
