I am down in Westchester County. I go up the Albany area now and then. Looks like nice riding country.

Hey northernrebel, welcome. I'm from upstate as well, outside of Binghamton. I spent about 6-7 years first in Albany and then Schenectady area back in the 80's, so I'm pretty familiar with your parts.

There is a donation link, and there's some cool merchandise; however, most of use just contribute by being here. Technical contributions are not required. On the other hand, if you post pictures of your bike sometime, we'll consider your contribution fully paid. :-)

Feel free to put yourself on the new member map.

You mean, there are bikers in Orange County, NY who don't ride choppers? Bwaaa Haaa Haaa

Then again, from what I've heard that OCC bikes are not really ridable anyway.

There is some beautiful riding in Orange County. It is HD country other than sportbikes.

I find at rides the "metric" guys tend to cluster together which the HD guys admire their latest piece of chrome.
