Hi All,

Bought a new R1250RS in the "stardust metallic" color last month. Already have 800 miles on it and first service done. I traded up from an R1250R--missed the fairing! Loving the bike so far. I teach at a boarding school for high school boys. We're back in person, and it's harder to find time now to ride, which is tough, since the summer spoiled me with so much time on the bike.

Looking forward to hearing about everyone's experience and to learning a lot from you! Including a shot from a recent track day on my previous BMW.

Here in Connecticut. Stay well!

Teaching high school boys must be a tough life - it is imperative you ride your bike more to keep your sanity!

You wouldn't be the first teacher named Chris to do so. Videos of Chris "Teach" McNeil come to mind.... (If you don't know, you can look it up.)
