Spotted in the wild.....

Out of the blue, an R1100S passed us, east of Prairie du Chien WI Saturday morning. Failed to catch the plate, I was busy telling Cathy what it was. It's been a year since a similar situation happened (was at SLAP, granted that's a MC affair but hardly an S environment. It was visiting at a house near the campground.)
fwiw, I've only seen one Ural 'in the wild' since they got on my radar (or are they perhaps a sickness?).
Said S was being ridden quite responsibly(?) fwiw.
Anyone here?
Jim

Well, I see Urals with sidecars here constantly. The rig seems quite popular with solo camper guys, especially traveling with their dogs.

Dogs and Urals? What next?



Couldn't push it out of the shed without her jumping in. We've put off replacing her for a year. Not much point in having a hack without a dog.
