Hello all,
I am new to sidecar motorcycles as of this last summer. I recently purchased a 2006 Ural gear up and have been having a great time riding it. I live in Romeoville IL a few minutes from downtown Plainfield. I just made this profile. Thought I would say hello to everyone. 🙂
Hello Irish,
Welcome aboard.
That Gear Up will come in real handy in the coming months when things cool off a bit.

Hello Mr Irish,
Welcome! I am also new to sidecar riding as of this summer. I hope you are enjoying it as much as I have been. Does your passenger enoy riding? I understand that folks really love the Ural sidecars. I wish you a lot of luck, and a lot of fun riding!

Thank you Lonnie and Trish. Yes the gear up could come handy in the winter months. I cant say for sure I will ride in the snow but my love for riding it may force my hand. These rigs are a real blast.
People do seem to go nuts for these Russian motorcycles. Most people think its something from the eastern front that has been restored. Of course the fact it looks so old is also what I love about it. My girlfriend Karen does enjoy the side car though its hard to get her in it when its cold out and it is cold out. I cant blame her. Many safe journeys to you both. 🙂
