    Anyone riding tomorrow (6/28) Super-secret or other?

    Sunday's not looking too great, 60-70% chance of showers, depending on where you look.

    Anyone heading anywhere, besides the stunt show? Have the morning to mid-afternoon to waste.

    I may go on a super secret solo ride before the stunt show... but it's so secret that I won't even tell myself about it yet.

    Good plan. I might do something similar. Shhhh, don't tell me that I'm going. I don't want me to know.

    In all seriousness though, I might head to the Bean, since I got there last week and didn't stop due to the huge threat of rain.

    OK, here's the deal...

    I'll hang at the D&D on 122 in Blackstone MA on the Woonsocket RI line until 10am. (So, meet at 9:30, that way if Mark wants to make it, he might be there at 10.)

    I'll probably be riding 2 up, so this might be a good ride for the little lady, Mark.

    2 up huh??? Cool, I can finally bring the little lady to a ride where I'm not worried the whole time about her not being able to keep up and pushing the envelope too far....

    Just remember, when I lead, I run stop signs.

    I just spoke with the wife and we're tenatively in on this, however we are going out drinking so if our evil side takes control tonight with the booze then we'll be a no show. Leave at 10am on the nose and if we're not there then we didn't make it.


    Stop signs mean stop........iey iey

    Sounds like a plan.

    If you need the route, I have a gpx file that you can import into GroupRider.

    Looks like we're out for this guys, we just woke up and feeling a little groggy. No way the wife can be ready to leave here in 40 minutes....(women..pfft), but that stuntshow looks interesting ( and later in the day) so we're going to check that out....if the weather holds

    I just got a call from Kurt. Hes already there...LOL. He got there over 30 minutes early last time we left from there as well. I'm in no hurry, the D&D is less than 1/2 mile from my place.

    Richie, hope you make. We haven't ridden together yet this season. Tuesdays have been a wash.

    Wow, what do you know, James joined Kurt and I. It was a decent pace (15ish over) and no issues, as it should be.

    I did a different route than I normally do coming out of the Bean. I usually head 244 West to 198 South to 44E and loop up back by the Bean and head home on 44.

    This time, instead of going 198 South, I went North and picked up 171 east back to Putnam than caught 44 East. Nice 20 mile loop.

    Total for me today was 125 miles.

    BTW Kurt, if you think the car crossing the double yellow and heading for me was scary,when I was on rt 98 in Uxbridge, I rounded a blind left-hander to discover a long-nosed tractor-trailer half in my lane. Talk about shaken up. He discovered he was there last minute and pulled it hard back into his own lane.

    OY!

    Aside of what Kurt hit, they were nice, wide open country roads. A few twisties, but plenty to do 15 over on without any issues or major traffic.

    Hey, thanks for the ride, it was good! Nice & easy riding, I checked my M.P.G. after the ride, 55.5 not bad at all. Best I ever got was 68.4 out of that ZRX.

    Also, that grooved road turned to 2 miles of oil soaked dirt, two wheel tracks of it. But we got home in one piece, no problem.
    Yeah, even Annalisa saw it and she tightened up on me when it happened.

    Sorry about the dirt. It was only a short section of grooved pavement when we went through the week before.
