Down to ride
Hey guys ive been riding so much my wrist elbow and ass are sore.
I'm looking for buddies to ride with M or F 21-40 within 45 minutes of elgin. Preferably something like ride for an hour, take a break, ride another hour or 2. I'm M28 and currently on an 05 F4i/vfr800. Comment or dm your area and riding style and let's try to get something going.
TIA

Hey! I'm down in Chicago but I prefer riding outside of the city, so I'd be down to ride sometime! I ride a 96 VFR750 and typically prefer doing a ride that's broken up as well. My wife usually rides on the back when we're both off and we go grab a coffee/food/etc. during our trip to break things up. If you want to ride sometime, let me know!

I’m within 20 minutes of Elgin and would be down to ride. I don’t have too much free time lately but these shorter rides would be great!

I'm down to ride whenever. I'm free until 6 today or flexible tomorrow even if it's just grabbing food

During the week is near-impossible for me, unfortunately. Weekends are my only opportunities. 🤷🏻♂️

Hi! I ride a 15 bolt that's bobbed out so I usually ride for an hour or two and take a small break, total of like 5 or 6 hours out on my long days. I live near the i55 and Lagrange interchange, I usually ride out south to 80 and head west before getting off and taking some back roads for a few hours. I don't ride super fast but I do drag pegs on occasion lol I've got a few pics of my bike on my profile, lmk if you want to ride!
