    Riding Monday

    Pretty sure I'll be riding in the Derry, NH area tomorrow. If there's some locals interested in meeting up, lemme know. You'll spot a yellow gixxer loaded into the bed of an old rusty black Toyota pickup

    If you showed up for this ride, you'd kill me when you got there

    Next weekend I was thinking about riding up to the races, probably on Saturday?

    well, maybe i can attempt to keep up to a Bean ride this year. I was very inexperienced on fast roads like that & it was my 1st trip to the bean.

    The reason I said you'd be pissed if you showed up was because it's not exactly a street ride, has nothing to do with keeping up

    Re: Riding Monday

    So i'm at the mobil gassing up to ride home (on the bike, BlackSquirrel!) when some goofy guy wearing some Civil War cavalry hat approaches me.

    him: "how big is that motor"
    me: "600"
    him: "how much does it weigh"
    me: "about 450 with fluids"
    him: "oh, so it must not be fast then"
    me: "well, define fast"
    him: "ya know, do a 1/4 mile in 11 seconds"

    then he proceeds to tell me how he's got a Valkrie that weighs the same, but has a bigger motor. I inform him that it's been geared, tuned, etc and is a quick bike. Then he proceeds to tell me that "well corners scare the shit outta me." While i'm literally laughing under my helmet, he asks what HP numbers i got from the dyno. Told him 106 in 4th gear, then he says that it is a fast bike for a 2cyl. When i politely inform him that these bikes are inline 4's, he said something like "whoa, those are fast".

    I pulled out of the station after filling up, then pulled a Krazy Kham around the offramp.
