Title: Group ride-Sunday 6/14???
Post by: Monstermash on June 04, 2009, 10:15:34 AM
Hey gang,

I've been having a tough time of it as of late. There is a lot going on in my personal life that I have been dealing with and I haven't really felt much like riding. Some of you may have seen a thread I started over the No Moto content board. In case you missed it here's a link.

http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=24555.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=24555.0)

Anyway, in an attempt to break out of this funk I'm in I thinking fo taking a nice long ride next Sunday. I get bored fairly quickly riding alone so I was hoping for some company. Anyone want to join me?

Route and time are TBD with some input from whoever wants to come.

'Mash

Wow, no one else wants to join us? I'm disappointed in you local guys. You're not making a good case for me to keep my bike.  [roll]

I'm in for sure.  I'm working until 3am on saturday night, so if possible, I'd like to avoid an ungodly early hour.  I'm pretty flexible though, and I'll sleep when I'm 40.   If everybody wants to leave at 7 or something, I can make that happen (if necessary)

There is ZERO chance of us leaving at 7am. There are two reasons for this.

1. Adam didn't plan the ride!  ;) [laugh]
2. There is no make the beast with two backsing way I'm getting out of bed that early for ANYTHING, much less a motorcycle ride. lol.

I was thinking more of 11am-noon.

How does everyone feel about that time frame?

Moto Market most likely. The problem is the possible rain. 40% might be ok with Jewcati but not with me.

I'll post up tomorrow night if the weather looks like it might cooperate.

Oh please, anything less than 60-70% doesn't mean a thing ...  Unless your bike is made of paper mache of course  ;)

Who? Me? When? Where? How? Lol.

I know you're talking about the DIMBY ride last year as my bike has never seen rain other than that day. Curse you DP!!!!!!  >:( [laugh]

Well gang.......


Chance of rain is now 60% so I guess we'll have to try and do this next weekend.

On the up side, we can now be joined by Adam as I don't think he'll be out of town next weekend!  [thumbsup]

So lets try for next Sunday the 21st.  [thumbsup]

Yeah - sucks to have the problem of having the naked S4R, the big bore open class bike, and the maintenance free sport tourer.

A cross I'm willing to bear  :P

Well, I'm out for next weekend too. I'm heading to UpState New York to meet my dad and grandfather for Father's Day...

I definitely can't do father's day...got family coming into town that I haven't seen in several years, and right now it looks like that's the only day I'm actually going to get to see them

Mash- sorry to hear that - what ever I can do to help let me know - I focus primarily on Banking etc, but been in the search biz for years in Boston. I work for a big global comapny and have a huge database, more than happy to try and drum up a contact name or a lead. Please ping me a note.
