3 of us had the opportunity to weave 'politely' through a medium sized gaggle of harley d's in a tight section of 84.
First showing a wheel to the last one and blipping throttle a couple of times got them bobbing and weaving like a flamingo mating dance.
I just know the next time I go to the garage it's going to smell like hot Pirelli and 848 goodness.
For some reason I have the warmest fuzziest feeling now. Like I can make it through another week.
wish you were here [moto]
That was one of the best rides I've been on in a long time. [thumbsup]

Yes, it was the politest weaving. Instead of passing the four Harley riders at once we just snaked through the formation. I think I paused next each member and gave a little "excuse me" gesture. Thaks E for taking the lead and pulling us through!
It wouldn't have been fair game to just pass them all.
We had to navigate them like Pylons and then run a circle around the last one [laugh]
I wish this was bragging about some great skill we possessed, however they were so slow in the twisties it was more like a chewing gum exercise :P
I do have to say though my chicken strips are a bit smaller after this ride. It was a healthy pace and an all around excellent day I will remember for a while.
Thanks guys [thumbsup]
