Welcome John. Hope you like the FJR. I firmly believe that the red ones are the fastest.

Wifey and I are a few years from retirement and we are currently researching places to move. Blue ridge, GA is on the very short list.

Happy new year.

Welcome to FJRiders, jwgoldin! I'm in Vinings, and of course I know where to find Loganville. As soon as my thermometer climbs above freezing, I'll be riding again.

Keep an eye on this section of the website for stuff happening in our backyard, or this section to see long-distance stuff. You just missed this, but it will roll around again next year.

If you have an FJR, especially the "Ticket Me Red" '14, it's safe to say you've sought out all the help you need.

You may now fire your psychologist and cancel your Viagra prescription. You don't need them anymore. Well, unless your psychologist is worthy of your Viagra prescription.

65K on my 2014A. Welcome form a fellow Georgian. I live everywhere you want to be. North of Atlanta, where I can, if I so choose, get to Robbinsville or get on the Cherohala from my house without ever hitting a highway.

Welcome from an ex Georgian. I had a 1978 Suzuki GS750 back when I lived near Roswell and used to ride up in the mountains. Now I'm on an FJR near Seattle, WA.

Welcome, I encourage you to head West the last week IN June to attend this year's premier event, The Black Hills Roundup II, right here in Spearfish SD. About 60 of the finest FJR folks from all over the world will gather for 5 days of riding and lieing. We'd love to see you too. Check out the Future Ride Planning Threads and click on Black Hills Roundup II for all the details.
