Doc I think I now know why you can't sleep the night before a ride. You stay up all night researching every bike out there don't you.
-
In WVA a lot of new pavement was put down on 250, but when I was there near the end of June there was a fair amount of gravel so watch yourself. Awesome road. I took it down to 79.

I can believe it happens often, but it surely shouldn't. It's simple stay in your lane. Don't ride above your level. Especially at Tail, you know it's dangerous and there will be traffic.

Wow
-
That's even better. I think it's awesome to pass on skills/knowledge to our kids.
-
Nice work Whaler

Totally agree with you Tonik that people live the life they see. I see it very often as a teacher. The idea that the apple does not fall from the tree holds very true most of the time. Sure you have some rare cases where they don't. My problem is I don't have an answer of how we intervene.

Nice riding with you again Nivin and Al. Nice to meet you Jim, Jim and Tim. I had a blast. Pace was great. Route was great too. I still ended up with like 350 miles today.
-
Bring the Duc I'm looking forward to seeing it.
-
I know your pain Whaler. I too have had to miss out on rides to be a parent.
-
I'm in. See you at 8 tomorrow.
-
Nice bike Nivin. Is this what you're riding Saturday?

I carry a small can of wd40 with me when I need to lube my chain before returning home and just lube the chain by rolling it section by section. Not the best job but it usually is effective.
-
Think you may have offered that to me for my 05 600rr.
-
Yeah the gravel sucked when I was on it. Hopefully it will clear out in time.

March 3rd may have worked last year.
-
Thanks I will give them a call.

I really seconded Pauly's post to push for a fall ride. No pressure Derek. Knew you originally were only planning 1 ride. I like Doc's idea. Keep it simple. Plan a ride and let's go. No complaints here about the 2 rides I've made. Rode with different groups both times and had a blast each time.
-
^^ what he said.
-
Wife just changed plans on me Derek so unfortunately I will no longer be able to make this ride with you.
-
Thanks for posting this topic Derek. I too have a desire to do a track day. Not sure if I'll go for it this year or next. Thanks for all of the info the rest of you have posted.
-
I'll keep watching this. I can probably ride with you until at least noon and longer if by that time you're starting to head north.
-
That means I need to hit the road by 6am. That's early but possible. How long of a route are you thinking?
