Got to ride
Looked around and it seams like there is no meetings or group (at least on this forum) for the FJR owners who are unfortunate enough to be living in flaaaat and boooaring South Florida.
I am still suffering serious twisties withdrawals, having only recently moved to S FL from Japan, where good roads, and awesome twisties were in abundance
. Unfortunately I don't think these twisties addiction is going to ease up anytime soon :dribble:
I wanted to start a topic that would address two things:
1. check if there is any interest from the SFL locals in organizing some kind of a regular (say monthly) meeting/brunch. If anyone is interested pls speak up with suggestions for venues, dates, etc.
2. find out how many locals are interested in doing rides out to where they have some decent roads.
My first suggestion is to make a pilgrimage out to Deal's Gap (and soon).
Given the distances involved it would make sense to plan this for a long weekend. Looking at a 2007 calendar I can see there are two possible dates:
1. Sep 1-3
2. Oct 6-8
One idea would be to leave on Fri night, arriving there in the early hours of the morning, get some sleep, and have the whole day (an early start would be preferable) Sunday to ride.
Get an early start back on Monday morning.
Could anyone interested pls categorize the two dates in order that would be best for them?

Now this is what I call a road :yahoo:
