Who rode this weekend and where did you go?

We must have just beat the rain all day, only sprinkled on us 10 minutes today in Centrailia...

 

sloav8r man those bags look good on your bike!!oh how do you like your blackbird ???got someone know may get ride of his and i always liked that bike i may get a deal on it..

 

Yea ya did, you lucky doof, didn't start here till 2:30pm or so good thing you didn't stop by huh. :wink:

 

AH, 75 miles for me on Saturday, up Hwy 89 towards Florence to look for Spring wildflowers. The VFR wanted to be photographed next to its favorite color blooms. What a nice ride...that beauty acclerates effortlessly when passing a car or two. Amazing bike...wonderful ride.

 

about 250 miles clear skys 75deg throu lower al and upper fl longest trip iv had on my vfr lot better than r6 for distance

 

Me and a couple of friends rode about 100 miles. We went into Dallas and stopped by Strokers which has some awesome bikes(currently out of my price range).

 

Let' see. On Saturday I rode from Baltimore Maryland to Rocky Mount North Carolina with five other bikes. Three of those were Goldwings. We called it the Ironbutt 500. It was to win a bet from a friend who moved down there and started working for Kawasaki. He had to buy us all lunch. It had looked like rain when we left but as the day wore on it only got better and better.
On Sunday I did a short 100 miles ride through the local twisty backroads with two others to get my "need for Speed" out of my system. Was a lot cooler and a bit windy but worth every moment.

Ride Safe.....

 

I hear ya. If it was just wind I MAY have gone out, but when the wind kicks up here the dust becomes a real hazard. It knocks your vis down to a couple of bike lengths and puts sand in fun places like the middle of turns. You also get the bonus of coming home looking like one of Bubba Zanetti's avatars.

Action

 

Rode 5 hours, never check miles just crank and go.

 

Derstuka it seems i only find this thread if i post the same thing and then it lists under similar threads guess i'm still a newb...........:nerd: :scared:

 

Ohh now I understand some of the frustration not getting to ride then reading about it and seeing all these cool bikes on here ..:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

 

Believe it or not I am interested in where riders go would like to ride out to west coast and back on the vfr no trailering ride whole way . Think i could piece together a map from various members anyhoo, I'm interested in all ride storys kinda like the articles in CW and yes even taz and kc :tongue: like to know what they did while out on a cruise.......:hug:

 

Me & the Boyz at a truck stop in Olympia, the 99 weighed in at 480 pounds with about a quarter tank...

Yup. I guess that really changes things. Originally from the prairies up here so have experienced the dust storms. Don't get those on the wet coast though.

 

On Sunday, I took the VFR out west of Great Falls about 20 miles and back. I came back to the house, restored feeling back into my digits, and then proceeded to go east of town about 20 miles. I meant to come back after that but ended up riding an additional 50 miles out and back. This thing is addictive. Imagine what I'll be like when the temp gets above 45 degrees :crazy:

While I'm talking about this ride, I was trying to pass this piece of garbage Pontiac Grand Prix on a hill (don't worry...passing was allowed...it wasn't a double yellow line...geez!) and this woman threw a f***in' sandwich out of her window! At almost 90 mph! WTF, mate! A whole sandwich! I gave her a well-deserved gesture, some good ol' VTEC transition, and showed her what a well-built motor is capable of. That sandwich almost hit me. Some people...

Anyone ever see Anchorman? Remember that scene with Jack Black on the cruiser? That's how I almost felt...

Sweet have you ever ridin the duck that bike looks cool wonder though how far you can ride it before needing a long rest..

 

LOL I hear ya thats what i was hoping this thread would bring out things that really go on out there while your riding. coke can cigarette but still lit any thing else you can think of thrown out the window while your behind the car ..sounds like she didn't want you to pass then acted as the piece of crap so is by throwing something at you like to shoot out there tire while going by when they do that......:smash:

 

PuCaudata: Man! That is terrible and chaps my hide. First, it is littering and I HATE that. Second, it is "feeding" the wildlife and will probably get a bird or some critter killed as it eats off the road. And most importantly, it endangered your life. Did she know you were passing--was it intentional...cause if so....arrrrgggghhhh! Very frustrating!
