Title: Duc à Deux Sighting Today--Hurst
Post by: caffeinejunkee on September 14, 2008, 04:08:18 PM
Saw two Ducs (red 999 and a red 620) pull into the NE Mall parking lot, and found out it was two folks new to our area: Michelle and Bobby--I gave them directions to the board.  [thumbsup]

Hope they post up and make some of our meets and rides...  [moto]

Bonnie, Jim, Lyndy and I went for a good loop today, and on the way back to our house we met    a dude on a 695 with termis.  Jim gave him our forum info.   [moto]  He says he's looking for some decent Sunday rides. [thumbsup]

Cool, maybe we'll have three more peeps joining us soon.  [moto]



BTW--just checked my phone, and I'm not seeing any texts about a meet-up and ride today....  [roll]  [cheeky]

Yeah, his name was Dan.  Sounds like he's a lurker.  He's got a pretty busy work schedule but expressed interest in joining us on short day-rides.  Fortunately, he met the right two "South-saieeed Ride Organizers", Tommy and Bonne!  [laugh]

Anyway, hopefully he'll get an account (if he doesn't have one already), and say "hey!"

Yeah, it was a double-super-secret south side ride.  You must not have had clearance, Clarence.

Seriously though - it was very spur of the moment...  And only lasted about an hour and covered just under 50 miles.  Thanks for leading Tommy & Bonnie!   [thumbsup]

Here's a couple of lame vids...  [moto]

And this one, I'm following ThelmaLou.  Please excuse the fact that I never shift gears - I'm hold the video camera in my left hand!  :-\

+1 You did great!  Wow, got to follow Bonnie down 917, I think she's faster than me (there's no bs in that statement!) Seriously, you looked like a natural.........maybe it was the Rossi helmet?
