Re: Hey.... trying this out...
To be honest there really isn't much. Basically Federal Hill is the only other place. Most of us typically meet on Newbury St in Boston or the Lowell Bike Night which is starting this Tuesday. People typically post up about the Newbury St and Lowell Bike night. Just have to keep an eye on the forum.
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
yeah i think im going to the Lowell one... if all goes well

The guy in the first video isn't picking up the 400lb bike.
He is spinning it on the kick stand. it is VERY easy and yuo don't need that much leverage to get the bike off the tires and onto the kickstand.
this video is a little more clear of how it works but I suggest doing it from the kickstand side like the guy in the first video... not from the opposite side of the kickstand like the guy in this other video
Kick stand spin #2
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
yeah that shows it to me alot better.. ok ill give it a try later today!!! thanks sooo much for your help!
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
Why don't you just get off the bike and pull it back into the space? It's a lot less embarrasing than dropping it while trying to spin it on a kickstand that isn't designed to hold up the weight of the whole bike.
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
I am still nervous on the Highway. I might need your "boys" to come protect me as I don't trust the other cars.
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
yeah i might have to do that if i get in the situation...
haha.. it was sooo helpful.. they were like my secret svc.. kept blocking everyone so that i could just get used to the speed

i remember my first time on the high way... was late to school and my car was in the shop, still didnt have my license, and didnt even take the MSF course yet. i was flying. pretty nervous but it was fun.
now i like going fast, but the highway is just too straight. i try and take back roads when i can. i love turns.
all i can say is wait till its a really windy day. than thats pretty scary. i have only been riding for a few months, but it is still scary to me.
Re: Hey.... trying this out...
so where are the pics already? I bet they're already plastered all over your facespace/mybook pages
