Well my cast came off today and Donnie just called to tell me that my bike is ready. How's that for timing? Anyone caging out to DucPond soon?

Too bad this wasn't last weekend. We were just up at Summit on Saturday for the WERA endurance race.
Where do you live?
I'm in DC, but I can get as far out as the metro and buses will take me
I am going to Summit on Sat...I am planning on taking the bike...but if the weather doesn't hold up, I will be in my cage.
My dad is taking me 2-up on his Harley this afternoon. It should be quite a sight. 550 pounds of Crider on one bike.
I got my bike home safely. It finally runs right now that I got rid of the udder and got the full termis. All those idling problems that I've spent the last year trouble shooting are gone. Donnie can't figure out why that fixed it but I guess it doesn't matter anymore. I wonder if I broke something that time I cooked up some dog food in my udder? Is there anything to break in there? Anyway, the bike is stored away until the ERC on Sunday, as promised :)
I had to put some mickey mouse ears back on it be cause apparently 3 months is not enough time to get the correct clamps for my new CRG mirrors, and they couldn't find my old bar-ends mirrors. I think I've got a new a new vanity plate idea: "BAKORDR"

Good to see you back in the saddle ! [thumbsup]

Personally, I think you should put as many refamiliarity miles on before the ERC as possible. The class is challenging enough without having to knock three months of rust off during the exercises! (Just my 2 cents.)
Well in that case I'll try to get some miles in this week. I would say I'd come to Rhodeside but it doesn't look like there was a thread this week. I've never seen that before.

BTW, I was going through some old race folders and found the title for my old EX500 race bike.... yep, Rod Crider was the previous owner!!!!
Small world, eh?
I knew I had seen you before. It just took me a year to figure out where.
Tim bought one bike from the 550 pounds of Rod Criders?
Just show up at Rhodeside regardless of posts. It's too nice for everyone to bail out. (I'm bailing for a show, but I did ride today.)
Rod. Glad to hear you're up and riding again.

--- I bet you've said this to more than a few girls. [thumbsup]
Finally, I'd pay to see a photo of you and papa Crider riding two up.
