**mycirus** · 11-09-06, 05:11 AM

Well lets plan a meeting spot with the street toys.

**Punjistick** · 11-09-06, 11:39 AM

sounds good to me. Friday is looking awesome. I live in the South Shore area but don't mind riding a bit to a meeting place.

**PhatPat33** · 11-09-06, 12:45 PM

If you're out west, Routes 32, 116, 8a and Rt2, and see a bunch of VFR's during the afternoon/evening, wave and say hi. We'll just be out for a cruise.

Enjoy your ride and day off.

**mycirus** · 11-09-06, 02:48 PM

Okay where we meeting? Where we going? West?

**Wishbone** · 11-09-06, 03:26 PM

i got a route that goes 140-202-32-122 its about 200 miles i think? but i usually start it at the 146/20/90 park and ride. we could also split further west once up to 202/32 area we could hit rt. 2 and go threw the mountains but they scared me with the salt/sand last time threw.

let me know, i dont care just wanna ride

**mycirus** · 11-09-06, 06:59 PM

Yup, sounds like a plan. I just went out and started the bike and checked the air pressure. Its so warm right now. I am tempted to take it out now but darkness and wet leaves dont go so well. Its gonna be fun tomorrow. Cant wait. So yeah, who else is in. All the cool kids are doing it. It might be a good day to be "sick" tomorrow.

We just may cross paths. Me and about 4 or 5 other bikes should be out in the Barre area around 12:00.

**Punjistick** · 11-09-06, 08:01 PM

Count me in. Where exactly is this park and ride you speak of?

If you are coming from the Mass Pike take the RT146/RT20 exit and its right across the street after the toll (take left and quick right). Its easy to find. I will PM you my number.

**Punjistick** · 11-09-06, 08:37 PM

Ok I got it. It's exit 10A. See you guys at 10:30

**vaa** · 11-09-06, 11:23 PM

This sucks. Bike won't be ready in time. Maybe next week.
Have fun, be safe.

Hey John-How the PP's treating you? What's the word now that you got some miles on them?

**Wishbone** · 11-10-06, 02:14 AM

sucks that you cant make it vic, maybee if you weren't throwin money at your bike you could ride (i wish i could i dont got deep pockets

)

and yes the pp are awesome but im not sure if its just them or the set-up from pete. i only got about 600 miles on them and its cold out side so im not leaning way down, but i feel like i got more confidence and i keep missing my apex cause it seems to cut in quiker

but my chicken strip is down to about 1/2 inch. but tomorrow i will try harder to burn it down

ok so who else is in???? last call

**mycirus** · 11-10-06, 05:04 PM

Had a good day, about 150 miles. Thanks for coming guys. By the way, you got on 146 a little early. Thats where I was gonna take you around 8 miles back to 146. Oh well, still fun.

**Wishbone** · 11-10-06, 06:19 PM

oops that was my fault, i thought when you turned right and then down by the golf course that was the extra loop

good ride any way, hope to get a few more rides in before the snow flies

**Punjistick** · 11-10-06, 07:32 PM

I had a good time up until when my brother and I started to get off the pike. We were crusing along in the far right lane just a little ways before the off ramp when all of a sudden the ford explorer were were following swerves to the left, into the middle lane. Instinctively I hit the brakes and it probably saved my life because there was a car at a dead stop in front of us. There wasn't enough time to stop so I went left and my brother went right into the brake down lane. I knew I had locked the rear but later he told me that I made a huge cloud of smoke and left a huge skid mark. I know I damn near highsided and it's a miracle I was able to stay on the bike and not hit anything. Afterwards we got stuck in stop-and-go traffic the whole way home. I think the fastest I got going at one time was 35mph.

**mycirus** · 11-10-06, 07:46 PM

Wow, glad you kept it upright.

Friday off anyone?
