Ducati Monster Forum

When: 9am-ish

Where: Old Susana Cafe 1555 Kuehner Drive, Simi Valley, CA 93063-4484

Meet me for French Toast and [bacon] and after we fill our bellies, we'll fill our tanks and head out through Moorpark to Santa Paula and hit the 150 to Ojai.

If ya want twisty directions to the Café instead of slabbin' it, I'll give 'em to ya... [thumbsup]

it's gonna be in the 70's. It would be a shame not to enjoy it. ;)

You can still be home in time to do the whole Hallmark Holiday thing... Better yet, bring your S.O. along...


[bacon]

I'm in on this! Neglected to do the maintenance so I could ride this weekend  ;D
Also, I'm gonna try to bring a friend along. He rides an R6 so feel free to give him as much shit as you want!

Are you planning on running the 33 as well or just going to Ojai?

It will be great to have you along!  [thumbsup]

Duc750, all are welcome, just make sure your friend has proper gear.  I'm leading a small group from SoCal Sport-Twins, and there is a no jeans or sneakers rule. And yes, since we're all going to be on twins, we will give your R6 friend plenty of shit!  ;)

erkishhorde, I want to run the 33, but some might want to turn back. Also, we might run into some snow on the ground further up the 33.

See you guys on Sunday! 


[bacon]

In and +2!  ;D

pregnant dogin'!  Some guys from SoCal Sport Twins are coming in from the Pasadena area on Buells.  [thumbsup] I hear there might be a coupla inline fours as well.    [roll] [laugh] 

That way we don't have to laugh at the Buells!  ;) [evil]


( I kid, I kid...)

Everyone is always welcome on any ride... Just don't be a Douche Canoe.  (my new favorite phrase)  ;D

wear your gear peeps!  [moto]




[bacon]

pics please..... ;D

Huge thanks to Ryan for putting together a ride that I can only describe as  EPIC!  [moto]

Good riders, great roads, and effin fabulous weather.  My own personal mileage was around 220 miles.  We covered 5 counties (very quickly  [thumbsup]).

this was a really good post.. after reading it i actually wanted to attend.  ;)

Kinda makes you miss [roll] the old days with pics of Luca Ospite, et al. crossing the double yellow (like no one ever does that)

And speedo pics of 140+

And then all the pregnant dogin' about unsafe and blah blah blah ;)

Ah, the good old days ;D

And of course, this didn't happen wtihout pics - rules are rules [cheeky]

i'd like to think that if i had another road bike i'd be much safer on it.  who knows if that's actually true.  =)

You have things to be safer for now [thumbsup] - so it probably is true

"things"... usually what i call them.   [laugh]

Really? Dang... I'm so outa the loop. I call them speed bumps.

Tell the "things" I apologize for the poorly worded comment [laugh] [laugh]

I might want to try the "Preview" button down there

Pics for those that don't have them burnt into their own heads (i.e. Peeps who didn't show up):

Beautimus pix !!

And a  [thumbsup] for the Firebolt (always liked those Buells)

...what are we.. er, what do you think.. we're talking about?



and nice pics!

Looks like a whole lot of fun!

Thanks for posting up the pics.  [thumbsup]

Ah, you DID hit the 33.

Oh yeah...we hit it HARD!  [moto]

Yeah, between the 33 and Cerro Noroeste Rd, my kickstand and footpegs are kinda mad at me.  [roll]  Time to get rearsets and a new kickstand...   [evil]

There were a lot of people who said they were comin' and either bailed at the last moment, or didn't even bother calling to say they weren't going to make it... :P

You guys missed out on one HELLuva ride...  Maybe next time...

I know you guys with S. O.'s  had a valid excuse, though...   ;)


[bacon] 

If ya had been sure you were gonna hit the 33 I woulda met you at the end to say hi.  [cheeky]

erkishhorde, I thought I had posted that we would hit the 33, with some turning around partway, but looking back on my post I see I was bit vague on that... Ooops!   [roll]



;D




[bacon]

is this place open/doing something again?  last time i was up yonder there was some activity.

Yep. There were workers repairing a fence and doing other miscellaneous construction.

Talked to one of them and I guess they want it open by the spring...
