DIMBY...Ducatis In My Back Yard

[ducpainter]

Now that my last post is out of the way....

Thanks to everyone for coming and bringing supplies.

It was great seeing old friends and meeting the faces behind the screen names.

We had fun. Z has a new girlfriend 

Friday evening was a drinkfest with large quantities of alcohol consumed.

Saturday morning was pretty subdued.   

I'm glad everyone enjoyed the ride...bike week is the wrong time for a large group...a little too much traffic for my tastes. Now everyone knows the meaning of rolling roablock, and just how rough NH roads can be.

I wish all the folks that had to leave early didn't have to.

Saturday night was the quietest bunch of hooligans I'd ever seen.

I think I might have hurt the kids Friday night.

I did walk the fire....I don't think there are any pics of that.

Special award to Monsterlover for his ride to and from...lethe is no slouch either...prize to Statler...longest drive and actually longest trip.

Thanks to 'Mash for standing in as barbecuey while I went to get a fire permit.

WTF happened to someguy?....you OK dude?

Thanks again to you, T, and Z.

How many kittens did you manage to send home with TiNi? 

We will have to do again sometime. 

Did you ever figure out who got away with.... 

[Monstermash]

So I was just on my way home for the Home Depot and I'm driving on I290 and happen to look up at an overpass and what (who) do I see? A Ford Explorer with a trailer and two Monsters. I'm thinking to myself, hey, I know that truck. I went down to the next exit and turned around to find Statler at the gas station fueling up for the ride home. What was odd is I live over two hours from Ducpainter!

So we chatted for a few minutes and then I had something to... ummm...do. I'll leave it up to Statler to give you the details.

The same number you took.

[DesmoDiva]

The same number you took.

I thought she would have at least took one. 

Had B and I driven, instead of riden, you would be missing one.

She was over ruled on the kitten subject.

Let me guess. 

Now that Larry is gone, M wants to get a dog?

[red baron]

'tini will post the pics when she gets home...

I was busy drinking.

Don't know what happened to him.

He never showed.

[TiNi]

if we ever get home, I will
still driving, just outside of Chicopee

Briefly, I had SuCH a good time, in every way
I'll post more when I get to a real computer

HuGs to all, and an xtra to my new boyfriend

[Buckethead]

That was a great time! I wish I could have stuck around for Saturday.

It was great to put faces to names, and real names to screen names.

It never fails to amaze me what a varied bunch we are.

At the same time, I'm always struck by the fact that most Duc riders I know are really good people. DIMBY definitely solidified that feeling.

DP and T (and Z): THANK YOU for hosting.

DP and Statler: Thanks for the reflectorectomy!

TiNi: Thank you for the margaritas! Not that I needed them at that point, but they were delicious.

Herm: You were my guiding light on the ride over. No, literally. During some of the rain all I could see was your taillight. Thank god for LED's.

Everyone else: Thank you for making this as much fun as it was.

Shall we aim for the week after bike week next year?

Reporting in to say I made it home safe and sound, as requested by DuCaTiNi.

This weekend was one of the banner weekends of my life.   A huge thank you to our gracious hosts and all the guests for making this weekend so special.  A big toast to all


No Vodka emoticon?

I think we need to make a request to the geeks. 

Glad you made it safe howie.

Did you get wet?

Just got home about 20 minutes ago, I am so glad that we decided to take that Rt 30 from the Albany area to the Binghamton area. Holy shit was that road fun.
We got caught in heavy rain for about 45 minutes or so in Vermont but otherwise we skirted around all the other bad weather somehow.
Don't expect to hear anything from MonsterLover until midnight or so, he's still got quite a ride to go.

It was great to meet you all and I look forward to doing it again.
Hopefully we can hit some of those roads without getting slowed down again.

Thanks to Nate and T for the wonderful hospitality and providing the base that everyone built upon to make for a fun time.
