Saw a Pitster Pro XTR200 at work today!
Cruising by one of the parking lots at work today I saw a Pitster Pro XTR200 parked beside a sportbike, then I saw it leaving at the end of shift... I wonder if it's forum member Motomaster??

XTR seems to be here at work pretty regularly now... On a side note, there was an albertadualsport.ca sticker tucked between my throttle cables on my klr. Nice sticker, think I'll put it on my panniers . Wish I knew who to thank but I have no idea who put it there

I bet if you shout out on albertadualsport.ca, you'll find out. Might be an opportunity to find a riding buddy.

I've been a member on that forum since 2010 but had never posted. I started a thank you thread for the sticker and one of the members described my KLR and location so I think I found the generous soul! Funny how something as simple as a sticker can make your day |

Yup, he does, though in a different part of the plant. He pm'd me and was saying that he knows of 3 or 4 other KLR riders and is setting up a group ride in a couple of weeks... Sounds like fun!
Edit: Oh, forgot to mention, I pm'd Motomaster just to see if that was his XTR at work, no reply yet though. I'm not sure how often he checks in |

That's cool! It would be great to connect with other KiLleR riders.

Yep that was me! Sorry haven't been on here in a while. And I bet I know who that other KLR rider is... I used to work on the other side of the plant a few years back. Small world!

Thanks for posting the nice thread, Stew. It's gratifying when someone does something friendly.

That is pretty cool! I've seen a KLR in 721 parking lot, was that yours? I thought it was red in colour, but it could have been blue...

Nope, the red one belongs to a Dow guy I think? I park mine over at the 521 building just west of 721. I haven't been riding for the past couple of weeks due to a nasty chest infection. Lol, plus, I'm taking my son to Disneyland in a week and I seem to have this weird talent for laying myself up just before holidays, so I'm taking the truck to be safe
