Title: ACH- Sat the 8th.
Post by: ICON on August 04, 2009, 01:34:37 PM
Anyone here up for a friendly ride up to Newcombs and back. Maybe some Wrightwood if time permits. I'll be on a Silver S2R1000 and the name is Marc.

Post up if your free.  8am at the Shell station. Ride safe! [moto]

Marc,

I got a day pass from the boss, so I'll be there, but, ah, where exactly is that gas station for the meet-up?

[Updated]

Would that be "Jay's Shell" at the foot of ACH at Foothill?

(Didn't want to appear to be a total sandbagging slacker and did a google map search.)

Hmm... Maybe I should finish my fender then.  [laugh] Took it off about a month ago to restore the carbon fiber and never finished.

I'm not 100% sure but I think I might be able to make this ride.  If I do join I'm not sure if I should take the Monster or my buddies Street Triple. Decisions decisions decisions....

And NorDog coffee at the shell is like jet fuel, coffee at Newcombs is much better and Erik is buying  [coffee]

If you wait @ Newcombs for Erik to buy the coffee it'll be too late as they'll be serving the lunch menu [cheeky]

arai- why not the S4R? Are you having technical issues? Bring the Speed Triple if you can. My neighbor Joe might feel better since he rides a Speed Triple.

erkishhorde- Do you remember how to get to ACH?

Glad to hear you can come out and play...battle of the Black S4RS's! Anyhow, here is the address. If your coming from L.A. your going to get off at Angeles Crest exit and make a LEFT. The station will be on your Left side.  [moto]

Jay's Shell

No technical issues - I have a buddies Street Triple in my garage for the next couple of months and he asked me to "please take it out for spin every now and then" so I wasn't sure which bike I wanted to take.  After taking out the Street Triple the other day I was bitten by how much fun it is to ride but I've come to terms over which bike I want to ride on  [thumbsup]

DOUH! Yes......the coffee. Thanks Erick for the Java [coffee]!!!  Post up if anyone wants to do this again this Saturday. I'm thinking a ride up to Newcombs would suffice.

Oh yes, thanks for the coffee!

And yes on this Saturday (I THINK I can make it).
