Don't let these guys scare you off. Here's some insight on how this group ride pace thing works. Nobody should be concerned much with what the lead rider or any other riders pace is because the group will be waiting at every turnoff for the last rider to show up before proceeding. These are not Isle of Man style/ Mach retard rides so straightaway speeds will be limited to the point where little or no braking should be required at corner entrys. If you attend this ride all that I ask is that you "ride your own ride". This means that you must be able to recognize when your corner speed starts to feel uncomfortable & back it off a bit when that happens. A good sign that you are uncomfortable is when your arms & shoulders start to tense up. When you slow down, the rider in front of you may disappear into the distance but that's OK! We all would rather wait a little bit for you at the next turnoff than see you injured or dead & your bike smashed up. That being said, if you are not totally comfortable with going 70 in the straights & passing safely in double yellow zones you should probably opt out of this ride so the rest of us can get home at a reasonable time. Thanks for reading. Hope I wasn't too preachy.

Happy Birthday Bike. Nashbar single-speed cross bike. Kind of a shitbox, but I'm a fucking terrible rider...so it works out. Not sure why I need to make my commute harder, but apparently I'm a masochist. If I have the balls to ride it to work tomorrow, I'll weigh it for you guys. Lol

You need a better mirror.

I really hate that I've missed this last year and will this year. Hopefully next year I'll be in a different role and have more time availiable to request off.

Welcome

I'm in.

Eh, I'm thinking about trailering.

2001 Schwinn homegrown comp, gathering dust. Will probably try to get out some this summer, need to get a new derailleur first.

Sorry for the misinformation. I had some diablos on my 600rr way back when so I googled "history Pirelli Diablo" & that's what I came up with. Maybe a new front next year then.

In.

They may be applying a crack reducing interlayer called Sami. It looks like chip and seal, but it has fiberglass fibers in the emulsion. They then top out with a stone seal aggregate prior to paving. It is supposed to be really effective.

I push two buttons on the remote and the sliding doors open. Another button opens the tailgate. It's awesome, even if it is a minivan.

Or just never use your mirrors

Once you go van you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner.

Be sure to hang any parts that fall off on the tree of shame

I will take it! Can I pay you cash at the rally?

Yep, I was just taking it to the next level and being very clear what the pace is going to be like. And like you I don't know Warren or his abilities. I only know I would crash in the first corner if I was at Jim's pace.

I do not want to discourage you from this ride, but since you are a new member, I want to know if you are familiar with Jim's pace?

Just the cost of doing business. And if you think they pass the saving on to you or me when say folks like your wife change their habits your crazy. It just goes to thier bottom line. So I take advantage of those situations to like your wife does. Like I said just the cost of doing business.

Figures... I think we've "thought" there was a race 3 times now.

Hospitality tax is always much higher than sales tax.

duolingo.com Freaking Awesome! Work is paying me to learn a new language(that I have been meaning to learn), and this $hit is free to everyone.

Seriously. Someone clean up this shit. We do NOT allow threads to go off topic here on Ohio Riders.
