Ducati Monster Forum

77South posted a link to the Wisconsin Italian Motor Brunch (http://www.italianmotobrunch.com/).  The group meets in Elkorn the second Saturday of the month, so this upcoming Saturday the 12th is the next meet up.  Ducatiloo and I plan on driving up.  If anyone else is insterested it sounds like a good time.  So what do you guys say, anyone up for brunch and a ride? 

Thanks 77South for letting us all know about this. 

What kind of cupcakes are best for brunch? 

aaron this is up in your neck of the woods, Join us for Brunch?
And Waterloo Joe you bring your car ;D

I think i can make this.  should we meet up somewhere before hand and try to sneak a southern kettle ride in before hand?

I'm going to say no to the extra ride, this will be Kyna's first time as a rider going over 10 miles at once so we are going to be taking it easy on this trip.  I remember how stressful my first real ride was, and want to make sure that I keep the stress level as low as possible.  [moto]

Sorry that I'm the downer.   :-[

No were trying to make sure your not a downer  ;D
We have all been where you are don't worry about it.

As a small warning for Kyna, if this will be your first ride of over 10 miles, you might want to politely decline to take part in the group ride after brunch.  I joined them last fall, and the pace can be described as either spirited or hooligan, depending on your personal danger threshold.  I dropped out about 10 miles in, not wanting to kill myself.  I also will be declining the group ride after brunch.  Maybe I will go again someday after I get in a few track days.

I don't think I'm going to be up to riding to the Brunch.  I just got my license on the 1st and I'm pretty new to motorcycling in general.  Maybe in August I'll be better prepared. I may drive up in my car, but I'm not sure about that.  Ducatiloo might go up without me.   [bacon] is a big draw.

I can't make the 12th but this sounds like every month if I understand correctly.  Let me know how it went and i'll see if I can meet you in August.

Someone ought to go...and take your GPS in case there are any good routes I don't know about ;)

I am sadly not going to make it due to a bad tire >:(

maybe next month?

shit. i thought this was tomorrow.  opps, maybe next month.

Okay guys lets try this again.  The next brunch is THIS Saturday (the 9th).  I plan on going and driving the car if need be (no rain gear yet  :-[ )  I realize that Rockerbox is the same day, but that maybe we could make a day of moto stuff.  Just a thought.

I guess I can come with you.  I'll have to look into the Rockerbox, but looks like fun.

i would be in for a brunch at 11 and then ride to rocker box.  RB really doesn't get going until mid afternoon any way.

Ok,  I am going to look stupid.  What is Rocketbox? There I said it!  I feel a lot better now.

Are you coming?

It looks like an awesome time! Unfortunately, I have to finish the boys room this weekend.  Responsibilities suck!

As this will be my first ride longer than about 30 miles (I don't do freeways yet) I'm thinking either A) I'll be taking the car or B) I'm only going to the brunch but on the bike.  I haven't fully decided yet.

balls. this is my 2nd last week of getting done saturday mornings. Don't know that it'd be wise to go riding on that kinda sleep.
Where you all gonna meet up tho? milwaukee?

For the Brunch I was under the impression we were going to meet there.  As for Rockerbox - I'm not sure there was actually a planned meet up location.

Here we go again! ;) the brunch is tomorrow.   I will be there and, as long as I remeber to bring the camera, I will once again be posting photos.

it was a good day for brunch. the pancakes were worth the trip. and then there were these:
