Welcome. Don't know how I missed your post. Sorry for the late response.
Great looking bike. Nice touch on the introduction with the photo and map. You will do well here.
We love to read ride reports and I think you are the kind of guy who will post some interesting ones in the future.

Hey another MB member. Greetings from SK! There's another new Winnipeg member in 550guy, you should look him up.
Nice trip bringing 'er home, that's the way to get the feel of a new bike.
