Shoop Posted May 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 BUMP. I called the dealer, Wheelsports. Yes, the Friday demo rides are from 4:30-7:30. They will be on suburban back streets. I'm guessing 35 mph max. Thinking harder about a 2-hr ride to get there. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Most of the back roads in that area are 50-55 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motocat12 Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 I was considering ditching this for a 3 day trip but my destination has rain forecast just like friday here. Up in the air, may aim for early Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
