.... I'll just say this... next year, we will organize a ride as big. maybe not as long. and organize groups. leaders, sweepers, and CAMERAMEN. we had our epic ride. I want an epic vid.... we will have a ride to ride first and shoot a vid as an objective....

it gets too dark to early this time of year.....

again... I am partial to the aprilia.... the rotax engine is beautiful, but very torqy.... get a used one for real cheap if you can find it. aprilia has made a few nice 750cc bikes. state 8 has always got a couple of them. but if you buy italian, buy used. you'll save like 50-60% on the bike. and get ready for the italian "quarks". but nothin you can't handle. I love mine. you'll love yours.

I'm might do this. I def vouch for ending in the CVNP.

don't forget where u are doc. I bet maybe one other person would recognize that song, if that many. but it's your creation so do your thing .

I know I cant speak on their behalf, but I really think the logistics of this ride worked as well as they could have for everybody considering we slapped it together right before we left.

... hey... guy's gotta eat...

15,000 would get you an amazing machine new to nearly new. if it were me I'd use it to by a couple bikes. a stunt bike(that I could beat up and not worry bout). a nice supersport maybe 5 years old. and a decent cruiser.

I'll vouch for the v-twin. but I am kinda partial. a very different kind of power and ride in my opinion. and plus you dont see as many rc51s on the road. so there u go.

doesnt look too bad. I am a school teacher tho. so fridays are out. but I like this. could get my cousin in ytown for this.

ride wouldn't be near as long as the last one. lemme see what the weekend holds.

.... look.... lets be for real.... I'm a newb lol. I'm like a little kid when it comes to things like this. excited, yet nervous to lead at all, but it worked out well.

we'll see what the weather looks like. stay tuned. the last ride left me not "needing more" but just excited.

where are you talkin about dry roads. just curious. was it me? or after we split at I-70? and doc.... don't rush on the vid. work your magic. it's you're art. just gimme me face time (I don't care how shameless I sound. I'm a friggin' star out here hahahahaha) again. thanks to everyone. just lookin forward to next season! I know we had a lot of people who haven't ridden with us before. hope this ride motivated most of you guys to join us for more rides!

.... 10,000+ views.... almost 800 posts..... gettin' on 80 pages..... this thread has become a sticky by default.... I hope your proud of yourself doc.... .........my autobiography wouldn't be this long.....

I gotta give mad props to those of you who spanned the state from the lake to the river and back.... you guys are beasts for real....

so the station doesn't think they're getting robbed

.... if you're talking about the red gloves... that was me... get your tanned people straight

we should just get a massive slab ride together. maybe just in and around cleveland.

.... I think we had like 2 or 3 cams...... doc... try to get the footage from the other riders and make another sweet vid!!!

.... hhhmmm..... I was wonderin' why you broke off from us ..... safe and home. great ride. and doc! I wanna send u some songs I think would be good for the vid.....

you picked up a bike for this ride... you're a beast buddy.........

.... ok.... us akron people are meeting at the bp on grant st. and I-77 at 9am-930am.we'll probably roll as soon as I get there unless I need gas. dont wanna kill alotta time here.

NO!!! a little late to be changing meet-ups. have route and stops printed please!

I know it looks wierd on the maps but its RIGHT off the highway. u cant miss it
