saw a bunch of ducs in arlington last night

[Slag]

Funny that you saw those guys.  I did as well.  One was an ugly make the beast with two backser, but the s2r and the hyper were pretty cool

Just watched jester cruise by on commerce street...he looks fast even when he's going slow   

[RED]

Hmm...well if you're on the Commerce side I'll be sure to twist the throttle a couple of times next time I ride in just to say hello 

Still looking for that black 1098...

Spotted what looked to be two monsters and a Paul Smart going down I-35/Inwood around 12:30.

Did the PS have the large 16 printed within a large white circle?

Oh the irony... I pulled on Stemmons right behind them just before Inwood. A young woman on a red GT1000, a guy on a PS (obvious good taste in bikes), & another lady on a new Monster... Helmets, but T-shirts & jeans. They turned off at Market Center heading for AMS.
I was appalled at the seemingly total disregard for the bikes by the cages. They were having to ride very defensively. There were 4 or 5 dangerous lane changes & 1 guy tailgating, & all that in a coupla miles
Please be careful out there...

ST4 joining the tollway from Legacy around 18:00 yesterday.  Ducati lid, jeans and t-shirt.

I have to change my attitude when riding, I am used to people driving like idiots but at least they know they are doing it, when you pull along side then they acknowledge their mistake. Here they have no idea, they can cut across 3 lanes causing all sorts of mayhem, if you pull along side they look at you and ask politely if there is a problem, if you manage to explain what happened you get the "really" are you sure it happened like that look.

ST4S without panniers seen in Carrollton at around 8:00 AM yesterday stopped in the inside lane of the George Bush service road Eastbound at the Josey Ln. signal light. It was red, but not Red, if you get my drift. Rider was adequately geared for a morning commute, and may have been headed for the GB onramp after the light. I only realized I had a Duc sighting at the last minute, and was two lanes to the right with traffic between us in my white '99 VehiCross, turning SB on Josey to take my son to his summer program, or I would have exchanged greetings. Carrollton needs more Ducatisti!

Yellow Sport Classic in the match.com parking garage at Douglas & Luther.

[no c]

Yellow 1098 @ n tarrant & precint. Sounded great!

Also didn't read all the pages in here so not sure if anyone fessed up to that red sport classic mentioned on page one but I saw it this last week. Really neat bike. Actually seen more ducatis out this last week than anytime I can remember.

I'm gonna start it so here goes it.

why does anyone care what people are wearing?  some choose jackets and some not.  point is, it's their choice albeit not the smartest IMO.  Do I wear a jacket on my cruiser?  NO but I wear gloves, boots and helmet (my choice).  On my Duc I always dress for the occassion but those without have chosen their path.  Maybe I'm irritable today but I don't see the point.

Maybe I'm irritable today...

I take it the honeymoon is over....

Nope that's the 3rd year
