....IM BORED OF RIDING SOLO ....lets put it together
Finally somebody on this sight wants to ride!!! I think we screwed up and lost Zeb and Super 3, two of the best ride planners around. Maybe you guys can actually get a group to show up and ride. Keep us posted.
Chiung, did you find a new bike yet to replace the 250? The wife's expecting so I am selling her Katana 600 if you are interested.
chiung
11-05-2006, 10:00 AM
Mike - got your pm - sorry didn't get back to you earlier. Still selling the 250. Guy came to look at it yesterday and wanted to trade for cash plus an AK-47?!? WTF

We usually meet at Hooters on ISB at 8. Gary and Mike, if you guys want we can then meet you and the west volusia people at 40 and 19 around 8:45.
If everyone is up for Sugarloaf, it will be a while before we are back in Daytona, 2 or 3 pm.

11-06-2006, 11:17 AM
MAN YOU GUYS ARE A BUNCH OF EARLY BIRDS HUH? WHERE'S SUGARLOAF? SUGARLOAF KEY?
"Jackass"
11-06-2006, 12:43 PM
OK, Sugarloaf isn't a mountain. I'm used to 6-7000 ft mountains, I grew up in Virginia & West Virginia. What's the best way out there?
bluespecv03
11-06-2006, 01:11 PM
Ill meet up wherever and whenever. 8 at Hooters sounds fine with me, and it would be nice to go on a long ride to somewhere Ive never been.
chiung
11-06-2006, 01:30 PM
lol - definitely a stretch of the imagination to call it a mountain, but it is the highest spot in peninsular Florida and getting there is half the fun.
See you guys at 8 - less traffic then. Check chain and tires...

Chiung, count me in. I'll try to get Frank to go.
Thanks Gary. Hope you can make it too.
If everyone shows, which is half the battle, it sounds like we should have a good group.
See you guys bright and early Sunday. Chiung, does this mean you are leading??
chiung
11-06-2006, 06:08 PM
Depends on if you got that 'busa broken in yet

There is an auto cross I was thinking about going to sunday. But with this many people going I can't pass it up.
I'll try to get a couple friends to join us but they aren't too much of an early bird if you know what I mean.

How often do you guys get to ride with a big group? Im sure you can wake up at 7 for this!!!

11-07-2006, 07:35 PM
We'll likely stop for late b'fast/early lunch at the Mason Jar just north of Umatilla.

Mike - you going to make it? I've had this CD sitting here for a few years with pix etc from our Dragon trip - I'll put it in the bike for you...
super3
11-07-2006, 10:25 PM
Holy Moly, A ride! Sure wish I could make it But My Fiance will be in town this weekend and we already had plans that don't include waking up early.Ya'll have a great time!!!! Try and catch you next time. You know where to find me Monday to Saturday at Deland Motorsports at the parts counter stop by and see me. And by the way congrats Mike!!!! New 'Busa,new Baby who's got the life?
This might sound like a stupid question, but my wife wants to go also, which would be passenger not her own bike, so is this gonna be more of a ride or a sprint...lol
Chiung, I'll be there. My plan is to meet you guys at Hooters at 8. I haven't seen Gary post again but I think Frank is in too. I've been waiting for those pics, any word on the video from the S2000 fender cam?
Jim, Thanks. Sorry you can't make it. I've got an extra Katana in the garage if your better half wants to get up early and join us. Hope to see you soon. I need to get the Busa in for service so I will see you sometime, but you know how I am about service. Since it's not getting ridden much it is actually still pretty clean.
This is shaping up to be a nice group ride. See you guys Sunday!!
chiung
11-07-2006, 10:58 PM
Bring her along - there'll be stops along the way. You've been halfway there with me already. The only fast parts of the route are on roads without any turnoffs. so it's hard to get lost.
Super, how much do you get for a 530 chain for an RC?
This might sound like a stupid question, but my wife wants to go also, which would be passenger not her own bike, so is this gonna be more of a ride or a sprint...lol

:x Darnit...I'm working this weekend :x
Maybe I can stop by Hooters on my way home and meet everyone. Maybe even ride to the westside meet'n spot...Hmmm.
"Jackass"
11-08-2006, 12:55 PM
And just think, all this has stemmed from me asking if anyone was riding out last sat. night. My fiance is thinking about taking Sunday off now & going with since it's gonna be such a big gathering. I guess Grandma better take the kid. See all Sunday @ 8, sleepy eyed & half asleep.
grubel
11-08-2006, 05:50 PM
I'll be at Hooters at 8am as well.
Gary - Are you trying to pass that avatar off as Halloween costumes and not a typical Saturday night at the Ubels?
grubel
11-08-2006, 08:52 PM
What costumes?

how will the ride be? fun and quick, or just a cruise?
BernardZX2
11-08-2006, 11:21 PM
how will the ride be? fun and quick, or just a cruise?
All of the above. A few quick parts, a few FAST parts, a bit of cruising in between and fun overall. It will not even feel like you've been out there for that long. (At least not until that night. :D )
Buellbomb
11-09-2006, 07:21 AM
I might make it. Don't wait for me, though.
And congrats, Mike!

11-09-2006, 08:48 AM
Chiung, sorry I didn,t check site until on my way out the door this morning, I'll check on a chain and post tonight or call me at work, 386 740 2453 and ask for Jim in the parts dept.
Mike, Thanks for the offer,Mary is most definetly a passenger only kind of girl. And besides I still want to "sleep in" Sunday don't forget we still only get to see each other every couple weeks or so for the next 245 days. Ya'll have fun and I'll see you soon!!

Definately wear a helmet. Let me put it this way. If I had a one piece I'd probably wear it. :) I think it'll be quite cold anyway.

How about meeting at the gas station just east of Marsh Road? We should be there around 8:45, and for sure some people will need to top off tanks.

11-13-2006, 12:38 AM
total trip was 200 miles for me, and i didn't go from daytona, so 250-300 for those that did the whole route. what a blast. and yeah www.2wf.com you can see that he is the editor and tester, and is riding the piss out of a ton of bikes on that site.
Gary & Jay, Sorry you guys had to bail early you missed a great ride.
Chris, I like the 4 county route I say we do it next time.
Come on Bernard, a half day, man up, lets ride these things.
I had a great time today. I'm always nervous riding with a new group cause you never know what kind of idiots or azzholes you can get stuck with that put everybody at risk but it seemed we didn't have either in the group today. I can't wait to ride with you guys again.

Yeah, you young guys just wait, it all starts falling apart after 35. Having a protruding L5 S1 disc kindof sucks on long rides like that. But I'll suck it up. Loved the ride.

Easier said than done, gotta check w\the babysitter. I know she'll keep her the weekend of the 3rd.
hey guys way off the subject here. (sorry for the crappy spelling I'm in a hurry)
can you all say a special prayer ( or what ever you do ) friend of mine up north had a bad one. He was going down the road and it sounds like he hit sand on a bad tire and sent him flying down on his right side. He now has a collapsed lung and 5 broken ribs. They are not sure if they will be able to rebuild his shoulder yet.
Everyone I know what we do is fun as you can get but, be carefull out there you just never know.
PS, Mike I'm going to get my new tires on TODAY

Jason, PM me and lets get together. I ride daliy and always willing on any weekend just depends on the kids and wife as well.
Sugarloaf is somewhere in Apopka not sure what all turns we made. I think Chong would have a better answer on that one.
