Orders to Norfolk, Va.

I just got orders to Norfolk, Va today. I should be there by late October. Is there any one in here that can give me the "what's what" about the area and surrounding areas (other than the fact that it's right next to Va Beach)? Thanks.

Thanks ghost. I appreciate that. I'll probably hit you up with a PM once I get there. BTW, welcome to the forum. Make sure to post up some pics of your bike in the R1 pics thread and I believe there's an introduction thread as well. Loots of good info and good people on here.

I live about an hour from Norfolk. I don't really care for the roads in Norfolk because they are to crowded for me. I don't care for riding in all that traffic. What branch of the military are you in?

Well plans change and I got to Norfolk alot sooner than I thought. I just flew in yesterday. Luckily the guy that was shipping my bike got here before I did:. Now I just have to find a permanent place to stay and house my bike.

I'm in the Marine Corps. Are you in the service?

I don't know where any of that is. I'll have to get a map and do a little studying and LOTS of riding.
