VT: Play Ground Ride II: Tuesday 9/23

[MotoFreak]

Time to get the Priller back to tame the beast...or just say hi and have fun!

9:00am at the Bridge for Breakfast (KB, Bread, Slyder...etc)
or 8:30am at my house (F4Iguy...etc.)

Same drill...be safe and have a good time scrubbin rubber!!!

[Mr Bread]

Anyone bringing a camera?

[MotoFreak]

BlueEyes will have hers...and Ill bring Troubles (since I still have it )
...are KB or F4IGuy coming?

[kbroderick]

I should be able to make it, and I can bring my camera (and I'll even take it out of the case this time around, if we're organized enough that I can set up to get some shots...I didn't want to stop last time around because (a) I was having too much fun and (b) I figured it might cause some undue heartburn if you saw me or my bike on the side of the road before you noticed the camera out). I will have to actually take off just a bit earlier...I'd like to not be flogging the Ninjette quite so hard to make it back for 1300 (I've got another meeting that looks like it will be that time on Tuesday to follow up on the one from last Tuesday, and I don't want to count on it starting late).

[F4Iguy]

tires are on, all is good! i'll be there!

[BlueEyes]

I'll probably have a friend from NY meeting us somewhere on that side. F4Iguy-since we both have to be to work at 1300, mind if I follow you back?

[Slyder]

fecal matter hit the oscillating wind generator in a big way, work wise. I dunno if I can make it, but I'm so very tempted. Front tire is shot on the left side...but uh, slick or not, she stuck like glue saturday

[BlueEyes]

If I don't start feeling better REALLY soon, I'll be couch-surfing again tomorrow

[Slyder]

rather be couch surfing than working here. ugh. my co-worker came back from vacation and said "I was hoping to come back to no job"

I need something else. sucks.

32 degree low temp tonight. Might be a tad too cold in the AM for me to want to ride 2 hours. doh.

[Mr Bread]

I remember you weren't feeling well after the ride last week -

Damn you aren't feeling better yet? I hope its not too serious.

Eat about 10 oranges - overdose on vitamin C, Drink tons of water, ect....

Get better soon so you can rip it up on your own!

Aw man, It would be great to get you out there with the group! I hope you can make it.




Weather is looking good! It also will be good to go one last time before the track.

[Slyder]

Oh to get jacked up on vitamin C, look for the stuff called airborn. might be airborne, with the E on the end. it's 1000mg shot of C or so.

weather looks good? 32 low, high 66 tomorrow is good?

to be at the bridge at 9am means leaving at like 7 and hauling ass...I'd be looking at a +10 to 17 degree wind chill.

As much as I love those Bridgestone BT002's...I don't think bridgestone had those temps in mind when they developed them

Emergen-C is good too....


The temps will be chilly, but its going to be sunny out.

[Slyder]

As much as I wish I could go, I cannot...gotta get the cage worked on and other fun junk. I have tomorrow off under severe protest, but oh well.

Enjoy and stay safe

Sadly, no. Found out yesterday I have a very persistent case of bronchitis. The original script they gave me didn't touch my nasty cough, so now I'm taking cough syrup w/ codeine. Doc told me not to drink alcohol, drive, or run a chain saw while taking it. Somehow I think this might also rule out operating a motorcycle?!

Enjoy tearing it up out there tomorrow. Wish I could join. . . . I'll try to catch ya'll next time!

[MotoFreak]

Well fellas...with BlueEyes out, and Corey working with a apathetic job hater...its going to be me, Bread, F4IGuy and KB...correct?

Also, do to the 41* at 7:00 forecast, lets shoot for 9:30 breakfast at the bridge...Ty, meet me at my house at 9:00...sound good for everyone?
Gives us an extra hour or so for things to warm up!

[village idiot]

hey, not sure where you'll be around 3:30. but i was thinking about hitting up the ap gap then going to bike night. just sent motofreak a PM with my number if you wanna meet up.

[Mr Bread]

Ugh.. 34* here now...

See you guys at 9:30!

[kbroderick]

Ugh.. 34* here now...

See you guys at 9:30!

It's up to 35*!

(At least according to wunderground).

[Trouble]

Bunch o' wusses. I rode to work at 5:30 this morning. Of course itt's only a 20 minute ride, but it was still a tid bit nipply.

[MotoFreak]

8:22 and I hope its 40* in the sun...glad Ty brought me my extra layer yesterday!

[kbroderick]

Fun ride, although I'm a little annoyed with the charging system on the Ninjette (in hindsight, I should have known to pull the headlight and taillight fuses before the first attempt at push-starting...the charging system just isn't particularly powerful to begin with, and my suspicions about mine being in less than perfect shape are getting stronger). Fun riding, though, and I'll get the pics up as soon as I grab a shower and some lunch.

[Mr Bread]

Wow.. What a great day!

Between meeting Uncle Snake's Aunt, KB almost hitting a turkey, me doing my first endo - because a car pulled out RIGHT in front of me, Motofreak running a good 1/4 mile in full leathers, removing large rocks in the turns, jumpstarting a bike w/ a van...


It was FUCKING AWESOME!

The sun was out and the temps were perfect.

OK - First and foremost I have to publicly give mad props to Motofreak. I told him in person, but I think it should be recognized by the forum. Taking the kawi back to the place he had his get off- Back on the horse, and fuckin ripppppin it up! That takes some balls. So way to go! - Good riding today!

KB - Every time I ride with you, I am pleasantly surprised at how well you absolutely flog the ninjette. Keep it up! also- Thank you for bringing your camera and taking some sweet shots!---Post em up!


I can't wait to get to the track!!!

I am not making it to bikenight tonight. Homework / Happy hour calls.

[BlueEyes]

Sounds like I missed a great day! Bummer - but I look forward to seeing the pics! Sounds like there are a few good stories to be told, too . . . turkeys, endos, running in leathers!!

When ya'll heading out again? Count me in for the next run. . .

[kbroderick]

Thanks to MotoFreak for standing around and grabbing some shots so I got to be on both sides of the camera rather than just behind it.

Conquering a turn with less-than-stellar memories (I didn't realize that I had set up in said turn until he told me):

Nice shots! Thanks again for taking them!
