    With all the new members from NC and surrounding areas we need to arrange an NC Tech-Together, which is a get-together to share tech tips and experience. It was always an eye opener for members, new and old alike, to be able to share and compare our P-cars side-by-side. Clutch problems and...

    Hello, All: My wife and I went on our first long day-ride of 2015. We headed up to Stone Mountain, North Carolina. We got there, but it was very quiet. Never been before. Roamed around the huge park for a couple of hours without any lunch. Couldn't find the darned mountain! I mean, it was...

    Hello NC Wingers! I am actively looking for a job in quality, safety, production, process improvement or customer service in or around Hickory/Lincolnton, North Carolina. This is to the North West of Charlotte. I have a good resume and 20 years of experience, but these jobs are, apparently...

    Memorial Day weekend 2014. Lake Lure. Rumbling Bald Resort. Lunch. Maybe Saturday. If not, then Sunday. Anyone interested in meeting up? This is the setting for my Gold Wing themed murder mystery and I need to do some research (tax deductible, I suppose). B-E-A-utiful place, at least in...

    I am a new Goldwing Rider. Here's the story: In 2008 my wife, office manager, and riding partner was riding a bicycle to work and was hit from behind by a large delivery truck at 60 mph. Presumed dead at the scene, first responders cared enough to revive and life-flight to a Trauma Center...

    North Carolina has a free motorcycle street riding class put on my experienced motor officers. It is called BikeSafeNC and the class is FREE. My wife and I took the class a couple of years ago and it was very good. Very focused on safe street riding. Yes, there were a lot of Scare-You-To-Death...

    My 2012 Wing is ready for its 12,000 checkup. I could take the bike to Gastonia (where I bought it), Shelby (they do a lot of GL trikes and did my front suspension), or Charlotte (I don't know them, but you would think they would do a lot of volume). Suggestions? :shrug: Also, would you do...

    I hate them, Hate Them, HATE THEM! All I'm trying to do is register my new-to-me trailer. I've been to two different North Carolina plate offices and gotten two different excuses for why they won't take my freaking money. (At first they said the title wasn't notarized. It was. Now, they say a...

    MotoMark is a motorcycle training school in North Carolina. They have a parking lot course, private lessons and a new "Overland Confidence" course that looks like a lot of fun. I not sure I am physically able to do this adventure riding course, but most of you could. I don't know as you would...

    I want to add a trailer hitch and upgrade the suspension (including Progressive Mono Tubes and Rocky's Trippe Tree) on my 2012 Wing. I'm not sure I trust my local dealer--they are afraid to check the oil on a GL1800, never mind change a rear spring! So, I called around and here is what I found...

    For memorial day, my wife and I road to South Mountain State Park, near Morganton but actually in Connelly Springs. We entered the place name in our factory GPS and hit "Shortest Route." We ended up on Old NC18 and what a fun ride! I though I was on the Dragon--except there were NO semis--just a...

    I'm planning a two-up trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway. I'd like to ride the entire length in one trip. We will be leaving from near Charlotte, NC, riding up to VA, then down all the way to Cherokee, NC. This is our first long motorcycle trip in 25 years. I'm mostly a motorcycle commuter, but we...

    I've always wanted to go to the California Superbike School. I'm about to the point where I can afford to go, but I'm just not sure that's what I want to spend my money on now. You see, a one day class, including their gear and their 180 horsepower BMW S1000RR, costs $750, plus travel and hotel...

    I've never ridden with a trailer before. Does anyone or anyPLACE rent trailers to Wingers? I'm especially interested in locations close to Charlotte, North Carolina. Thanks.
