996.87 miles in 18 hours. I went from Austin, TX to Atlanta, GA overnight. [moto] [coffee] [moto] [coffee] True story. [thumbsup] Yes, there were women involved... Identical twins to be exact. [evil] Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: TCK! on June 06, 2008, 07:56:23 PM Yes, there were women involved... Identical twins to be exact. [evil] Omg twins... Last twins I was drinking with my buddy got rejected by them so he poured his cocktail down the back of one of the girls pants and the lime got wedged between her nice, firm, tan, no under-wearing butt cheeks... It was the one time in my life I really wanted to do some tequila shooters... Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: ducnymph on June 07, 2008, 12:07:42 PM Dam, that's naughty DW13 :o
EEL, friday afternoon sounds good for the 27th and the 4th for a ride. I work late night and on the weekends so afternoons during the week are good for me. I might not be able to make the whole ride, but could certainly join for a good chunk of the afternoon ;D Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: EEL on June 23, 2008, 04:06:48 PM Times almost here! anyone up for a ride??? Bike's ready to go!
Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: TCK! on June 23, 2008, 04:14:06 PM Sorry I'm out, flying to St Louis on Friday for a wedding :D

Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: duckwrench13 on June 24, 2008, 08:17:50 AM After this weekend's ride, my back feels pretty good. I might be up for a few hours out on the bike this week.
But I did have a though about riding on the 4th... It is a BIG [drink] TIME [drink] HOLIDAY! Which will mean BIG TIME [leo] POLICE [leo] PRESENCE [leo]. And with all the petty reasons they've come up with to stop motorcyclist these days, the increased patrols might be something to consider. Just my $.02 ;D Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: TCK! on June 24, 2008, 08:33:04 AM Yeah I think I'm staying off the streets until winter comes back and the force goes back into hibernation. Maybe they'll be busy giving out Cell Phone violation tickets, wouldn't that be nice :D
Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: EEL on June 24, 2008, 09:15:53 AM I'm probably game for Sunday...any route in mind? I'm game for anything. I pretty much know the 9/35/84/empire grade/HWY 1/Stage/Swanton/Bonny doon roads like the back of my hand. Little less familiar with the mines / calaveras / redwood rd / east bay rides. Pick something and I am game for Sunday. Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: somegirl on June 24, 2008, 09:34:13 AM I might be up for something on the 3rd or the 4th.
But I did have a though about riding on the 4th... It is a BIG [drink] TIME [drink] HOLIDAY! Which will mean BIG TIME [leo] POLICE [leo] PRESENCE [leo]. Good point, a couple of weekends ago I spotted 3 separate patrol cars on 84 between Pescadero and Alice's.

Pick something and I am game for Sunday. I can ride 35/84/Pescadero/hwy 1 if you're game. You've got pm. Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: EEL on June 25, 2008, 01:47:58 PM Ride scheduled for Sunday this week. PM if interested. I have updated starting post with info.
Anyone up for weekday evening rides (before sundown)? Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: Labbedds on June 28, 2008, 12:58:02 PM I'm in, details?
Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: sidm on June 28, 2008, 07:35:44 PM I'm in, details? Not sure if EEL will be posting between now and tomorrow, so will pm you shortly for a heads up (assuming you are referencing Sunday's ride). Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: Labbedds on June 28, 2008, 07:48:59 PM We might be doing this: how about panoramic, 1 to pt reyes (gas) then to Tomales petaluma, chileno valley, then cut over to pt reyes petaluma rd, nicasio then lucas valley. The usual loop, very fun. We can get some lunch at pizza antica after maybe?
But I'll talk to the guys tomorrow and maybe we will switch it up and meet up at alices at 10:15. I have your cell. Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: sidm on June 29, 2008, 07:55:35 AM Leaving now for Hwy 9. I'll let EEL make the call if he wants to switch things up since it's originally his ride. I have a feeling we will stay down here. If we don't meet...have a fun/safe ride.
Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: sidm on June 29, 2008, 01:41:19 PM We managed to stay out of the LEOs' eyes, the roads were dry for the most part, and the company was good.
Good times EEL [thumbsup] [moto] . I'll try to get back on your schedule one of these days for another ride. Title: Re: Ride marathon Post by: EEL on June 29, 2008, 04:32:42 PM Agreed!
That as an excellent first experience with Pescadero. Good pace, good ride. Ping me if you're available during the week. [thumbsup] |
