Hope the ride was glorious. I'm a bit jealous.

oh there was all sorts of fun, unfortunately Keira and I had to break off after lunch.... can't wait to hear the full report...

Reiobard and I are home after the Ribs ride. We broke off at lunch and took the short way home, due to my butt being sore and both of us exhausted (him from getting up with the munchkin at 4AM and me from not riding in forever). Overall, we had a very good time, even with those couple minor incidents.

Hope the afternoon was less eventful than the morning and everyone made it home safe and sound!

Thanks, Dave!! Maybe I'll bring my own bike to the next one.

Good route and good food today. Traffic was ... so so. I think this was also a record for you Dave being as you ended the ride almost 100 miles from the start point.

Excellent ride - thanks Dave - knackered! Very glad the two incidents proved to be fairly minor

Thanks for the ride Dave. I expected it to be kinda boring, but I'm glad I was wrong! Had a great time and will be doing more of your rides!
Nice meeting you Keith and Alicia ....I'm surprised those pics aren't up yet haha.
Also, good seeing old faces, errr I mean Cheese, Chuck....and others
Logged in about 330 miles, ride home kinda sucked, but it always does.

Well, the person furthest from home made it safely. 414 miles door to door for me. 250 slabbed miles (ewwww)

Great seeing the familiar faces (Dave[naturally], Rob, Ned, Mark[not sure if you remember me from one of last year's ride to the races]) and good to meet some new (Keith & Alicia & everyone else I talked to and didn't get their names)

I ended up in 3 miles worth of traffic on 495 close to the Pike from a car that completely demolished a camper. (looks like it just drove into it). Other than that nothing too eventful traffic-wise.

Great food, great people, great ride. If I'm available for it next season, I should be in.

What a great day it was today.. After all that rain we had a perfect day for the ride. Thanks Dave for leading us through some great roads.

[FZ6inNH]

My first DucDave ride... it was nice and eventful! Thanks for arranging it and thank God the weather held up. Perfect day for it.

Nice to know that it was only those two little incidents and no one was hurt! Good ride all and nice to meet each of you.

Nice to meet you Dave, thanks! Nice to meet everyone else too... It is official, I had the oldest and dirtiest bike on the ride...

Took the long-cut home after lunch and pulled into Boston around 9 pm... Longest ride of my life, but would gladly do it again!

It was great meeting you all. 93 was backed up at the 293/93 split so I just double backed and took 101 rather than sit on the high way.

I don't know about furthest from home but I did over 400 miles, nowhere near 250 mi of slab . Great ride with some trivial events, Dave's episode could have been avoided if I only made it clearer that I was on the hunt to turn the errant rider around (sorry Dave). Does the guy with the streetfighter post here? I assume he made it home OK

Mornin' all,
Good to meet you Dave, Adam(sv650), and the guy with the zx14(silver I think)! Also good to see Ned again and shoot the shit under better circumstances than last time......
I hung at Curtis' for half an hour or so and decided I need to ride more than eat so I bailed. Took Rt's 5,12,4,107,100,17, and made a couple passes on T**** Rd to boot. Going over Rt. 17 on the way home I might have seen Mark on his Triumph but not sure.....
The first real ride on my TL1000s was pretty good. Quite a lot different than the ZRX1200r I'd been riding for the last bunch years, no shit.... All in all I got an even 400 miles in in about 9 hours and called it a good day! Regards, Jake
