Sitting here at my desk bored out of my mind, I've decided to chose a few of my favorite pics from each of the rides I have done this season (The ones I actually got pictures of).
I started the season off with my beautiful 2000 996S. Here are some pics I took of it last fall
On May 1st of 2004, I did a ride with a few guys from NESR. This would be my last ride on the 996S. Here are a few pics to explain why:
After healing up a bit (my left knee was kinda messed up) and dealing with my insurance company, I decided to purchase a new bike, a Monster S4R. I decided to get on a group ride with FireNutzEE(Wayne), blackvfr(Mike), and lrrs167(John). Here are some pics of my first ride on the new bike. The pics were taken on Rte 118 somewhere west of Woodstock NH on July 3rd
The next week Wayne July 11th, Mike, John and I decided to post an "All Welcome" ride thread. The ride went from Nashua NH up to North Conway, then back south. Here are some pics of the turnout By the way, I don't remember all that attended the ride, so here is our last updated list from the original thread
FireNutzRR -Ducati Monster S4R
lrrs167 -Ducati 748 or Yamaha FZR 1000
A996S (me) -Ducati Monster S4R
Honda
blackvfr -honda interceptor
BenSV -honda interceptor
Lefty954 -Honda CBR 954RR
Slingblade -Honda RC 51
_Friend of Slingblade -Honda RC 51
rjh200 -Honda CBR600RR
Preston -Honda VFR
Daytona440 - Honda CBR600F4i
Half Squid - HONDA RC51 (Mike)
Suzuki
tls25rs -Suzuki TL1000S
Punjistick -Suzuki GSXR 600
Kawasaki
TheIglu -Kawasaki ZRX1200R
BadDog -Kawasaki ZR1000
Yamaha
Craig -Yamaha XJ600S
A few weeks later(July 25th) Wayne, Daytona440 (Tim) and I decided to do a northern MA, southern VT, southern NH ride. Here we were at some BBQ pork place somewhere in MA. That was some great pulled pork![]()
And here we were on Rte 9 in VT at some popular overlook. Too many Harleys out there that day.
On Aug 8th, Wayne, John, Mike, and SlingBlade (Greg) did a ride from Townsend MA over to VT, then up to Okemo Mtn. What a fun ride with perfect weather. This one was taken somewhere on Rte 100 inVT.
And here is a great shot from the top of Okemo Mtn in VT
On Aug 14th, Wayne and I did a ride through central VT and central-southern NH. These pics were taken on some road between Rte 100 and I think 5
Some time in late August, Wayne, Mike, John and I did a ride from BCM Ducati in Laconia NH, up through the lakes region, and into Conway, then across Rte 112 (Kanc). Here we are waiting for Wayne's mechanic to finish replacing his rotors and god knows what else
ANd a shot taken somewhere off of 112
On Sept 12th, Wayne and I decided to attend the annual Italian Bike Show in Sturbridge MA. We're in the forground of this shot.Mike was supposed to be with us on this one, but I ended up being really late and we missed meeting up with him. I still owe you a lunch the next time we ride Mike
There were a lot of nice bikes there
Sept 26th, Wayne and I met up with SideShow(Chris) and rode from Derry NH up to North Conway, across the Kanc and 118. Here is a shot of us on Rte 118
And a group shot on Rte 4 overlooking Mount Kearsarge
Oct 3rd, Wayne, Chris, DucatiWheelie(Elliott) and I rode from Townsend MA and into southern VT and back. Here we are at our lunch stop somewhere in VT. I love those Wheels Elliott
and a shot at our last gas stop in NH at Rte 10 and 123.
I've had a great riding season this year (aside from putting my 996 down). I'm glad I was able to meet all of you, and I enjoyed every minute of every ride we did. I'm especially glad to have met Wayne, because as you can see, every group ride I've done this year was with him. If you guys are ever able to get your hands on his maps, make copies of every page and look for the yellow and orange highlighted routes he has marked out. They are all a blast. I seem to have learned something from just about everyone that I rode with this year and am greatful for having spent some time with such great riders. I hope we can do this all over again next year![]()

You're more than welcome in my book Mike. I'll keep you posted under one condition: you can't make more than one "oh look... matching bikes! How cute!" comment on the ride. I'll give you one, but anything more than that and I'll have to dig up some of those pics of about 16 of you RC 51 guys.Originally posted by Half Squid

I'll let you know towards the end of the week if I will still be riding. I've been sick since last wednesday and until today, I thought it was just a bad cold. Now it appears to be a respiratory infection of some sort. I hope I will be feeling better by Sunday though.
On a completely different note, I wish I didn't work for myself so I could get sick pay![]()
You better get better by Sunday!!!!!Originally posted by A996S

Hey I know where that Sunoco station is ! FYI There is a ride {fall foliage spectacluar} leaving from BCM this weekend OCt 17th, at 10am sharp. I'm going to try to make it. Nice pics of the Red Bull, I gots a bayliss rep, the bikes would look Sweet next to each other![]()
I actually don't own the Red Bull anymore because it was totalled in the crash I posted pics of (pics 3 & 4). I am now the proud owner of one of those Monster S4Rs that you see in every other pic I posted. Let me tell you that you have a gorgeous bike by the wayOriginally posted by ducatiboy

Great pics and writeup Adam - I had a blast this season too. It was definitely great to meet so many of you on that NH ride, up at the August trackday, and the few times I hit up the Moto Market and Lowell bike nights.
Hopefully next season after I'm out of school I'll be living in a better location to get out on more rides! (And maybe with a new(er) bike?)
Great pics...sorry about the offy you had on the 996S
