Hello. I am new to Moto Guzzi and just acquired a Norge. Before that I owned BMWs.

I am seeking other riders who want to go on daily or multi-day rides from Chicago to Wisconsin, Indiana, or Michigan. I usually create custom ride routes to have road diversity and to make rides interesting.

Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,
Adam
 
I'm in Southern Illinois, but I have friends and family further North. I'd be down for a group ride around the Great Lakes.
Hello! Thanks for your response. You are in Southern Illinois? How far south? Do you know of other MG riders near you?

As for a ride around the Lake Michigan it is 1000 miles all the way around. Have driven it, but not by motorcycle.

Would be interested in riding. Reach out to me at akallish@me.com
 
There is a Guzzi monthly breakfast in DeKalb, IL, been going on since 1984, always a crowd. During Covid it's been eat outside, last month they were closed. Go to MGNOC site & contact the club rep, Tim Smith.
 
Hello Adam, I live in Traverse City, MI. riding a 14 custom and would very much be interested in joining in on a ride. Glad to see someone motivated to put together a ride. Will stay in touch. Skip

Thanks for the reminder. I do plan in the spring to visit DeKalb to meet people. However, I am also interested in doing focused and extended rides as an event in itself.

Hey @Skip Stauber thanks for the note. I was in your area over the summer with my BMW and rode up the west arm of the peninsula and then north through the road of trees. If I make it up there I will reach out to you.
