MidgetTodd Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 I figured that was you, for some inexplicable reason I never saved your number on my phone. That's been fixed. Thanks a ton for the encouragement everyone. Like I said before, I think my biggest problem was not separating nice country spirited rides like what I went on with SWing'r and Hue from grab-your-balls-and-hold-on-wheee! rides like the more experienced people. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.I think I'll stay in the kiddie pool of Columbus/Delaware for a while. Kinda reminds me of Cedar Point, you need to be this tall to ride the Coshocton ride, and I'm still a widdle kid rocking out on the bumper cars (you can't lowside those). It'll happen, but it's not happening tomorrow.Oh yeah, and I scored my first goal of the year just now. It was a beautiful Avery/Brodeur moment, you hardcore hockey fans will know what I'm talking about.not to make light of your situation cheech but theres some good quotes there Im gonna use and glad your otay ... and yes jim is good people i know him and have rode with him and hes a otayI don't understand why someone didn't tell you to go back home when they saw you ride up on a katana.thats plain wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magley64 Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 just kinda reinforces my stand of f- trying to keep up with you a-holes... if ya can't wait for me then I'll have just as much fun riding by myselfI was coming back for you n fonz if i didn't see you show up real fast on the non-castle run...

ChickOn2 Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) Hey Cheech, I'm glad you're still whole and beautiful!!And I'm with you, man... I will be riding to my comfort level, regardless of what the group is doing. Love 'em to death, but I will see y'all at the next stop sign.. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Dayton group, they'll tell you exactly how I gets down LOL Edited July 27, 2009 by ChickOn2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best wishes for safer rides!Pic taken at Hooters on 7/10/09Ah, better days. I'll start lining up shops tonight to get insurance estimates, I'm very much heartened by the fact that engine doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong. At least it'll make one hell of a go-kart (you can't lowside those either) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swingset Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Lots of lessons in this thread for new riders, and for experienced ones.Group rides can be dicey - and for a new rider the temptation to keep up or ride over your abilities will bite you. Don't fixate on the guy in front of you, don't try to impress anyone. If they ride off so fuckin what.And, for the experienced rider you are (whether you acknowledge it or not) determining the pace of the ride for someone who might want to impress or hang with your speed. Know your riding partners, if they're not up to your experience level make sure they know you'll be riding hard and don't expect them to match you.And for fuck's sake everyone turn around if one of you doesn't catch up.Luckily, this one turned out minor. Gear works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
