I'm still reeling over the fact that we just happened to be in Zanesville at a Wendy's, completely unplanned, and he's there stalking w/ a video camera. I felt kinda like a douche just for the fact that the guys I was riding with had NO clue who he was... I recognized him, and I know he recognized me, or my bike, but none of the other guys are even on ORDN, except Turbo and he wasn't aware of the photoshop work I've been doing. So, I just felt bad that my internet drama spilled over into real life and ruined lunch for the crew because they just happened to be in the wrong place at the right time.... with me. Basically I got a lot of flack about "being an Ohio Poser" and "the guy that posts 'lol' to everything" (because there's nothing more important than my post count on here ) and "having no life because I'm on ORDN ALL the time" - not that I had just ridden 200+ miles down 83, 78, 555, 60 or anything. It was cool for Greg and the two guys I hadn't even met to go out there and talk with them (after he was kicked out of Wendy's), do a little friendly trash talking and have my back - I wouldn't have expected that. I surely didn't want to get involved in anything, physical or otherwise. I'm just appalled that this guy is 30 years old, and he's got nothing better to do than follow "Ohio Posers" around with video cameras. It's pretty pathetic, but if that's the image he wants to project for himself - that's on him. I just basically kept my mouth shut and let the non-OR people talk. It does take some balls to assume ALL the guys were ORDN people and he's pretty lucky it didn't get ugly, not so much from me, but the other guys who had no idea who this guy was and WTF he was doing taping them. And for that, I apologized to them and explained this whole backstory.

I'll save the ride recap for another thread (I'll probably crosspost the link here later), but long story short - Guess who showed up, video camera in hand, to the Zanesville Wendy's on Rt. 60? It was myself, Greg, John (Turbo810), and three other guys I just met - I met them and didn't even get their names (sorry fellas, you're cool, but I'm not good at exchanging pleasantries - I'm sure Greg knows them). We stop to grab a bite to eat at that Wendy's... we were there for maybe 15 minutes and a big guy that looked like this: came in with a "Sluts <3 Me" black T-shirt on, video camera rolling in hand, and started in on "Oh look, it's the Ohio Posers" over and over. Apparently we're posers for stopping for a bite to eat after 200 miles? Jon and I were the only OR.net members in the whole outing, so the other guys in the group were all WTF? Who is this guy? He proceeded to ask if we speed and run from the cops... all on camera. Jon put a huge kibosh on that, with a hearty "No". Then he asked where all our gear was (It was right in front of me, my jacket, helmet, gloves, and I was wearing my boots)... and Greg goes "I left mine in your moms bedroom" and proceeds to say something about being pretty brave to be videotaping 6 guys he's never met. I hope that camcorder he had has anti-shake technology, because that's all the rest of the tape is going to be. We asked him nicely to shut off the camera, but he said "Public place" so whatever... no sooner did that happen then the manager came out, asked if this guy was with us (We said "Hell no, he's bothering us with a camera"), and made him shut the thing off. The manager offered us free frosties for the hassle - we thanked her, but no one took her up on it. He went outside to be with his 'buddies' - we saw a GSXR 750 and (2) other ZX-10s (I think?). Jon and I stayed inside along with another kid, but the three others went out to talk. From the story I got, a friendly ride was offered, but declined by QuikZX9R because of "the douchebag you guys are with" (me). It was countered that he shouldn't worry about it if he's so fast, he'll be way out ahead anyway. Declined again. Then another kid that I was riding with piped up about how his chicken strips were huge compared to mine on the SV, then one of the guys said that his buddies used to ride with the guys in New Philly, but they were too slow, so he quit. Ohh, and I guess Quik is pissed that he was banned from here before he could post pics of his odometer to prove he rides 19k miles a year? I'm sure more was said over the 20 minutes they were out talking - but those are the highlights. Jon, myself, and the other kid left to grab the other three - of course Quik had nothing more to say other than I need to get home to post up on here. I <3 u guys (and gals). But, I wanted to make ya'll aware, there may be a video of me on their site (ourbikesdontleak.com) busting on ORDN as "Ohio Posers". ^--- from his website (http://ourbikesdontleak.com/ohioposers.htm) Sounds like a huge case of penis envy to me. I have no idea how he tracked us to Wendys or what his goals were for the tape, but obviously he's a creepy guy who's lacking in maturity.

That would've been us. Copper SV1k Two ZX-10s (black + red) Two new R1s (grey/red + white/red) Blue R6S The guy in front was Greg (black ZX-10) - he's not a member on here, but if you ever run into him. Do not, I repeat DO NOT, take him up on his offer to race.

It's a trap to get people to buy him expensive Cedar Point chicken wings.

True, that's another reason it is interesting.

I'm 90%... the missus just gave me leave to go as long as I'm back by 6PM

Greg == Jinx, right? Will he be on a scooter, still out-riding the rest of us?

That is an extremely interesting statement.

Do we have a general direction/destination before turning back around? Just for timing purposes... I should expect to be back at the 82/83 meet spot by _______ PM?

The MV is the only one that can turn. The MTT and Tomahawk are just way overpriced 'busas.

And of course, what brand was he on? Thanks for helping the cause, ya squid.

Matt, if Turbo and Punk are doing this ride, you may want to leave the cruiser at home. I can't speak FOR them, but the rides Uncle Punk usually does aren't cruiser-friendly.

Almost a beer...

WTF, and Tod didn't call me. I would've told him no, but it's the thought that counts. Bastard. What about Kevin?

Yea, which is funny, because I don't download attachments.... remember?

OMG OMG OMG! Shitty ended up in Hotel California. They haven't had that spirit here since, 1969. He can check out any time he likes, but he can never leave.

If michellemalkin.com is fair game, then Kos is fair as well. Not only that... it's just a clip, doesn't matter where it's posted. You want me to find the same video on another "less Kos" site? You know damn well that most of the sources I cite, I attempt to make them unbiased. Kos is obviously biased, but it's not commentary, it's the the hosting of a clip.

How do you think I got faster? There's no bigger motivator than someone trying to make you their catcher.

You'll look real cute going up/down the Flint River, white boy.

Seriously? Because my morning is completely free... I just need to be back in Elyria by 5 or 6PM

Touch, grab, lick... same difference

Alcohol is bad, but it's not Nitro. I've never been able to handle that coming from the pipe for more than 2-3 minutes.

I'm not surprised at anything I've read or seen in this thread.
