no way your bike is heavier than the Gran Canyon...

[zooom]

Worst of it seems on its way out, I say meet at Starbucks at 11:30 and head out as soon as everyone gets there.

sounds like a plan stan!

But if the rider bike combo is taken into account, I got you beat if you're less than 170 lbs. Too much !!

Think I'm out.  Weather doesn't look like it's going to clear out much, and I'm feeling like a little girl.

Actively precipitating at my place. I'm out.

Next weekend looks beautiful...sunny and 70. Looking to ride both days. Anyone up for Massimo's route just for giggles and grunts either Sat or Sun?

Next weekend is Donnie's demo day.  HELLO MV!!!

Damn! I forgot about that!

I'M IN!

I was wrong -- those roads dried up quickly. I shoulda gone on the ride. I need a kicking-self emoticon.

That's right! And not just for you!

Met Zooom and the ladies at Starbucks and we had a nice ride out, we met Obsidian (aka Cool Greg) there and rode back together.

Good times (for us)

You went to the Motofest? I thought that part of the plan was out.

[Meerkat]

I went for a Lars run minus Lars and the rest of the gang. it as absolutely beautiful. Nice and cool and the roads were mostly dry. A little traffic, but it's easy to pass when you're a party of one.

Thanks guys for a great ride back!  Very nice route.  Hope to meet up again soon and find some more roads.

I had a good time, nice roundtrip of 800 miles, to get there, but never got a drop of rain on me - so much for a Gene Hunt ride means you get wet. All the way up to Coudersport, Pa for overnight, then over to PA Grand Canyon, and back down to Clarion Hotel last night, all back roads of course, good food, good band, and some adult beverages. Then today at Motofest, up early to do a little cleaning off of 800 miles of bugs and road grime, Plexus, help from Nora, coffe, and some rags good enough for the situation. Then a mile down to the park, very nice collection of bikes, you would have to go back a few years to have that quality of older bikes. The BBQ food was good although I miss the ole gals serving itelian food. Got back to Reston around 4, not a drop of rain since I left Friday morning. Thanks to anyone who voted for my M900, 39K miles and she still cleans up pretty good I guess. Time to retire her from those long multi-day trips and keep her for day trips. Later - Gene
