    Lyle,



    I may be able to head out for a little bit for the ride to MotoMarket. I just need to be off and in Bellingham for 8. I know of a sweet route I could share with you!

    Mike.

    Mayhaps I'll meet you guys there depending on the wife situation

    I'll be headin down from Bedford, so no way to meet y'all to ride out to motomkt, but if the stars align, I'll be there

    What time you think y'all will end up getting to motomkt?

    Cheers,
    Chris

    But when we ride very fast motorcycles, we ride with immaculate sanity. We might abuse a substance here and there, but only when it's right. The final measure of any rider's skill is the inverse ratio of his preferred Traveling Speed to the number of bad scars on his body. It is that simple: If you ride fast and crash, you are a bad rider. If you go slow and crash, you are a bad rider. And if you are a bad rider, you should not ride motorcycles.

    Hey Mike-

    I'll post up or PM you when my wife gets back for the child handoff..I think I will be good to go around 4:30-5.

    Hohum-depending upon route etc, I tend to go thru Lincoln past Hanscom into the backside of Concord...let's see what happens-

    Ben...What time are you out? Maybe you can hook up with Mike and me..otherwise see you over there..

    Lopycam..try to trackdown Oreo_n2 (Brent)..he might be game..I think he is in that neck of the woods...

    Sweet, I usually end up coming up the back of Hanscom as well, mayhaps I'll see you guys on the road on the way over.

    Depending on when I leave, I'll likely get over there right around 5:30 - 6 (depending of course on how bad Rt 2 is at the concord elbow, and if I can leave work right at 5)

    Cheers,
    Chris

    sorry to miss you...

    Hey Bemused..

    I was standing with Ben when he noticed you...at that same time I saw a guy from HS...so I got sidetracked as he talked my ear off...even as I was getting my gear on to leave..you would have thought that putting in the earplugs might have been a good indicator..

    that said..I of course approached Hohum to introduce myself and he was all set to fire up the TT

    Ha. Just made for a more "spirited" ride out to Springfield

    Was cool to meet you man. Hopefully we'll have some nice weather for some more thursday nights, and maybe we can meet up to ride before heading out. I know a few routes from Framingham that are sweet, but I'd love to maybe ride some of the routes that Mike knows (here's to hopin they aren't the ones I already know )

    Cheers,
    Chris
