After work ride tonite?¿

Meh, try this again. I'm going out riding, if anyone cares to join me, likely somewhere out in the Berkshires of MA, call and I'll track you down/meet you somewhere!

Ok, heading out the door now. Doing 91 south to 116 in Deerfield, then taking Williamsburg Rd. to 9w, getting on 143w, then winging it from there. Stopping for fuel at Deerfield Neighbors/Mobil station on 116 before heading up the hill.

Noone lives out there in Nowheresville, NW. Try living somewhere else next time.

I think I killed about 400,000 bugs between my jacket, helmet, front fairing and even my damned brake and clutch levers were plastered with crap! Normally I wouldnt care about the bike being dirty, but the bugs were just disgusting, you almost could hardly see any paint on the front around the headlights, so gave it a quick bath with some wet paper towels, and about to do the same with my gear.

Poor Jeff...I know how you feel....some route in the Berkshires, I believe it was 143...was pretty BAD last year when Man God and I went ripping the roads at night..we had to turn around, we couldn't see shit after only 10 minutes, it was disgusting on our visors.

[JeffL]

Yeah, I ran a few portions of 143 after I came up 116 and crossed over via Williamsburg Rd. in Ashfield. God I forgot how fun Rt. 9 is west of 91.

Also found some VERY interesting roads between Windsor and Savoy, and from Savoy to N. Adams. Bike maps are so nice to have, the ones that show all the "fun" secondary roads for road bikers.

It wasnt that bad with the bugs until I headed north out of Adams along Rt. 8 into VT, then it was like it was raining almost, my shield was disgusting, pics to come, cause I stopped in Wilmington and took some. And to clean it off at a gast station for the last 35-40 miles home.

[JeffL]

Yummy.

[MissTwisties]

Holy shit....somehow my chocolate covered raisins don't taste as good right now...YUKKK.....lol

[JeffL]

Oh thats nothing, you should have seen the back of my mirrors and the whole front fairing.

[MissTwisties]

I imagine all the gooey smear it did when you tried to wipe it the first few times....yummm....it's almost as bad as trying to wipe....uhh never mind. all I can say is it takes lots of scott towels uh??

[MissTwisties]

he, pardon me...it's late and I'm tired.... (and I have a perverted mind)

[JeffL]

You sick bastard!!

Actually, I knew better than to try and wipe "dry", so went right inside and wet down like a half a roll worth of paper towels, and started dousching, I mean, wiping.
