Spring's here how about a group ride..............

[mnxs54]

Yeah that's fine Mark I'll add him in.

Thanks! Looking forward to meeting and riding with you guys.

If JoeCornMasher leads a group, I might opt to follow in someone else's tracks.....just sayin'

Ooooooo.....Ouch. Dirty cheap shot. (And funny as hell) :derisive:

 

[Gramps]

I would help...but I don't know the roads...and I have been known to crash while leading and too much looky-loo in my rear view mirror...plus, people complain about gravel and stuff when I lead...like it's MY fault or something. :lol:

edit: If I get my GPS sorted out...or if there are turn sheets, I could volunteer to lead a slow ass group..if needed.

Thanks wheatie, I think I got it covered. You can just sit back & enjoy the ride.

I'll post up further details a little later. Right now Webby has agreed to lead the

the fast group, and you better be more than just thinking you're fast to keep up with

him. Having some track & or race experience will keep you out of trouble with his group.

I think I'll have another two groups that will cater to a more relaxed ride. This of

course can all change depending on the actual number people that show. Keeping it a safe

experience is most important, so regardless of what group you're with always ride

within your capabilities. We'll talk more on this at the breakfast.

The switch in plans that freed me up for Sat. just got switched back :angry2: I'll have to miss this one. Looks like rain for Saturday, but hopefully it will miss you.

Sorry to hear that Mike. Yeah there is a 50/50 chance of showers but that's not going to stop us.

Cya next time Mike.

 

[wheatonFJR]

Still a "GO" for me unless work flares up violently...

 

[carlson_mn]

See you at CFO Mike if not a ride before then!

The weather models are very spotty 5 days out, so Thursday should be the earliest that we can get a reliable figure for Saturday.

Is he going to be on his GSXR750 or the Victory?

 

[Gramps]

I'm not sure Matt. If it's cool & a chance of rain as they're predicting, he'll more likely be on the Vic. I could be wrong tho.

I'm still planning on you Mark rain or shine. :drinks:

 

[Gramps]

Update. Unfortunately Mark (wheatonFJR) has a conflict with work that he is unable to get out of.

Next time buddy and you & Karl have a safe journey to California.

 

[Aasland]

I will probably skip this ride - rainy Saturdays are for homebrewing. I'll get my ride in on the more aptly named Sunday instead.

See you next time then. The forecast I just heard is a "chance of scattered rain or thunder storms & not a total wash out by any means".

I can deal with that. For now it's still a go.

 

[TripperMike]

Still looking like rain for Sat. But either way I will be having breakfast in Hastings @ 8:00 and whether we ride or not can be discussed over coffee. Looking forward to the ride with ya'll.

That's the plan man.

Marc;

I'll be the first one to be a pu$$y. The forecast looks sucky for Saturday. Young Jason and I are going for a ride Friday (tomorrow), so he'll get to test out his new suspension before we go to Arkansas, or what's left of it after the storms.

If the weather man really effed up, and it's dry Saturday, then I'll look for you guys going through Durand and tag along. I don't mind the cold, but the WET and cold on a day ride on twisty roads for my second ride of the year ain't gonna cut it. Let's hope the weather man is wrong. Sorry for backing out.....let the ripping begin.

 

[wheatonFJR]

Sorry about bailin' gramps.

Even if the weather gods had it raining...I would still ride up and visit. Occasionally work storms arise in my business, though. It's hard to pay for trips with unemployment money...

We'll just have to wait & see on the weather I guess. The other day they they were predicting an 80% chance of rain & we got nothin. I'm hoping for the same.

Where you guys headed on Friday? Coming close to the cities?

No need to be sorry wheatie. We'll make it happen sometime this year.

 

[SwollenRaccoon]

Thanks, Marc. We'll be heading to Wabasha, and then over the river into the hills. Probably get to Wabasha somewhere around noon to 12:30. I know you'll be prepping for Saturday, but feel free to join us if you can.

If not, and Mother Nature quits being a hag, I'll hook up with you guys Saturday. Thanks, Marc!
