Hot Sauce and I were talking about doing a long (all day) ride on Labor Day weekend, prolly head down to SW VA and WV, if the weather is good of course.

I'm out of action with trips and people visiting until the third weekend in September or so but I'm always down for weekday and night stuff. Except for the fact that you're going to get rained on that sounds like it should be a great ride.

I ended up riding around Sugarloaf Mountain and Lake Seneca yesterday. There are some pretty fun roads out there and more cyclists than cars. Met a dude on a Shiver and ended up riding with him for about an hour. All in all it was a pretty good day to be riding. Here's a crappy video of a creek crossing near Lake Seneca: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdmJPN7vcSA

Count me in on that October ride.HNasty posted:Hot Sauce and I were talking about doing a long (all day) ride on Labor Day weekend, prolly head down to SW VA and WV, if the weather is good of course. We were thinking Sunday or Monday of this upcoming weekend. Sunday is much better for me but we didn't have a concrete day yet. Hopefully the weather is nice and the cops aren't writing too many tickets

I'd be up for an October ride. Early morning on any of the Sundays would be good, I have to work alternating Saturdays that month.

Tell him Charlie sent you and he might hook you up. ...or charge you more since I had to move and left him down a tech for a few weeks. Edit: anyone headed south/west this fall for some mountain carving?

McLarenF1 posted:I'm going to the Grand Prix on Fri and Sat, and probably hitting the bars afterwards (read: Sunday = recovery day), so I can only do a Monday ride. I might be going to the Grand Prix on Friday as well, I'll hit you up if I am there. As for riding, Monday may or may not work, I was hoping we'd do it Sunday. HNasty what day works best for you?

My plan is to gently caress off early Sunday morning (Monday as the back update in case of bad weather)and do around 400 miles, I'll be happy to accommodate anyone that comes but I would suggest picking up something comfy for your seat. Gonna be up in the mountains for most of the time, VA and WV mixed up.

Zero free time all of labor day weekend, and I've got to make up some hours and work Monday. Anyone want to set up just a general biker meetup in or around the city? Daylong rides are nearly impossible for me for the next several weeks.

It wouldn't be a proper ride without a storm on the way back. It actually hailed for a few minutes this time as well, I poo poo you not. We huddled under this bridge for cover until the rain slowed down. The best part was seeing an old dude on a chromed out trike ride by wearing only a bathing suit, honking and waving at us.

I already took my bike in but I still need to manually clean my carbs and install the jet kit I got laying around. If there's one thing I learned from seeing all the bikes there is that I probably put way too many mods on my bike. hot sauce posted:It wouldn't be a proper ride without a storm on the way back.

The best part was seeing an old dude on a chromed out trike ride by wearing only a bathing suit, honking and waving at us. Kinda glad I chickened out. Although I dont mind riding in the rain, I'd rather avoid it. I'm afraid my bike would explode after I installed some projectors. I also dont have the wrist strength for a longer ride so I would probably need to get some type of throttle lock.

If you want to give your wrists some relief, a few folks have this: http://www.amazon.com/Crampbuster-CB2-CrampBuster-Wide/dp/B000GZPH2U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1378392634&sr=8-1&keywords=cramp+buster I purchased one but haven't tried it out yet. The people who have it seem to really like it. Also, you should buy some rain gear - we have had rain every single ride over 1 hour long

You'll double back a few miles with the group into Great Falls for the cars & coffee. Otherwise, just head straight to Great Falls and meet them there.

And the curse is broken (kind of), took a ride with HNasty today and it didn't rain! But he did lose his cell phone, probably somewhere on the Laguna Seca Gravel Road Edition (complete with corkscrew of death) while in search of the secret Illuminati village. No we didn't find it. Fake Edit: Just checked my GPS tracker, we freaking rode right past it! Link to Aerial View Map

Haha, that's a $50,000 a year private girl's school - Foxcroft. My parents had a bed and breakfast in The Plains and I spent one Christmas break chauffeuring a mother of one of the students to the school and back a couple times a week. It was a fun drive but I don't think the mother enjoyed it much. Also, her 12 or 13 year old daughter would hit on me whenever I drove her - it was super awkward.

I can't think of anything less fun on a motorcycle than a ride like that, but the biker in me wants to run it anyway just out of spite over the denied permit. (The fact that it seems to have grown up as some sort of jingoistic backlash to an earlier "million muslim march" thing makes me less inclined to go overheat the Warrior.)
