redrocket04 Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 This is what I like about the cruisers. More rides that have benefits beyond terrorizing twisty road residents, and riding as fast as possible. Countdown to first 6k on the CBR/your gf has you whipped comment...

Likwid Posted May 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Ended up being pretty slow, ~20-40 mph most the ride. Took a few pictures, definitely a good ride, the firefighters' memorial got well over $20,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Limit of 1000 bikes and what 5 helmets for those 1000 bikes? Thats ok then they have a theme for the next memorial ride for those fallen riders who did not wear ANY gear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats ok then they have a theme for the next memorial ride for those fallen riders who did not wear ANY gear! You know what's amazing?1,000 bikes, no gear... and guess how many crashes ... 0.Meanwhile 10 of you go for a ride, with gear.... 2 crashes.So by my calculations, if there are 100x more crashes ... well you see where I'm going.

What's up with that?By the time we got there it was so packed we couldn't really get to the memorial to take pictures. It was pretty cool though, a statue of a firefighter fighting a fire...

Zoner1320 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 This ride was cool, but not as good as last years. It was nice to meet ya Matt. Hope you did not get tangled up in that traffic BS there in twinsburg. An ambulance had to go through and half the ride had to catch up with the other with out an escort. Have to say that was fun weaving in and out trying to catch up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoner1320 Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 My blisters have blisters. Dude I got fried....LOL. it was 90 damn degrees. I did not feel like putting my head in that microwave. Speeds were minimal and by the way 1545 bikes with at least one person with First Aid Training. I will take my chances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
