    Called the track and confirmed prices for Sunday:

    Paddock (on bike or on foot) - $25.00
    Grandstands - $10.00

    I am planning on leaving Seacoast at 9:00 sharp. Have given a heads up to Lion Cafe to expect a handfull of us!

    It the weather really looks sucky I will cancel and post any updates on my website. BatMan Home

    Check there before leaving if you plan to join us...!

    Re: Sunday, June 15th Ride to the Races!

    Anyone from MA thinking about doing this ride? Possibly meet at Motomarket in Acton for an 8:00am departure to make it to Seacoast by about 8:45?

    I hate slabbing 90 minutes by myself.

    Possibly RI riders meet further south?

    Thoughts?

    Assuming weather cooperates and all goes according to schedule, anyone from the Boston area going straight up to Derry (without an Acton sidetrip)?

    93 north exit 3 follow signs to 28 follow 28 north towards derry seacoast is on the right right before the flashing yellow (caution slow down) light.



    We will be there before 9 am with gas this time and you wont be leaving just as we show up.

    and if the weather is crappy and you cancel i will be sad for all motorcycle riders. it rained last time and the ride was great. it was a little chilly but remember it was october!

    Re: Sunday, June 15th Ride to the Races!

    I'll put it this way, if it;s not raining when I get up at 6, I'll take my chances and head to Motomarket for an 8:00 departure from there to Seacoast. If it is raining, I'll just stay in and whine. (no, more than I usually do)

    Forecast certainly looks daunting. Nonetheless, I'll check this thread and Dave's website in the morning...

    Re: Sunday, June 15th Ride to the Races!

    Well, I'm out. No sooner did I wheel the bike out of the garage, then the sky opened up and poured. Up to that point, the ground was dry.

    I don't mind getting a little wet, but doppler says I'd be geting constantly wet all the way up to Derry.

    Not fun, IMO.

    Have fun.

    I'm out too. Too much dark green, orange, and red on the radar. May come up in the car later on in the morning.

    Well...I am looking at the map and it looks likd the edge we are in now will be passing within an hour. I will show up at Seacoast in case anyone does decide to go...if not, I may go up and watch some races anyway!

    Sorry Dave. I'm going to pass on the Lion Café and ride up to the track before lunch when it's dryer. If you're there, I'll see you in the infield.

    too bad we couldn't push this back an hour... looks like this cell is not going to be here long. Dave might see you up there at some point but not keen on dragging the girl out on the pillion in this..

    EX500 or an older CBR600 (F2 or F3) or older ZX-6 (early to mid 90's).

    As this is would be her first bike, I don't want to go nuts. (And it's something that I would need to ride home, so a 250 won't do as it would struggle to get my ass home.

    Yeah... my first bike was an EX250. In retrospect, I should have gone with a 500. I outgrew the 250 in about a month. I like the handling, but not being able to be on the highway without feeling like I was risking my life was no good. If you do end up with a 250, I'm sure someone here would be more than happy to ride it home for you
