'06 MTS 1000ds S - sexier than ever


« on: June 15, 2009, 06:39:50 PM »

Took a wrong turn this weekend and ended up on a dirt road near Jamestown. Crappy cell phone pic, but best scenery of the whole ride.  And thanks to JP and Brian at BMS for fixing the phantom haunted bike sound on the Monster.  Grin

That whole "In the name of Miguel Galluzzi, be gone you evil spirit!" and splattering the tank with Holy oil really worked?

Looks like your were tryiing to go up Left Hand, and did not turn.  Am I right?

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Hah, hah! You've made that mistake before too, huh?  Wink I don't know how many times I've been up there and somehow this time I forgot to turn. Duh...

Not to split hairs, but I think it was actually the sacrificial Shoei and cloves of garlic...

Yeah, Randy, I've been impressed with the camera on this Crackberry. And the Multi didn't suck either.  Grin Although, I think that if I wanted to spend alot of time in the dirt I'd raise the front a bit to stretch out the rake and trail. It's a mite twitchy for dirt as it is.

Nice route to be lost on!   [moto]

I took the Duc to work last Friday.  Had to force myself to.  Didn't enjoy the ride at all – which I used to even though it includes US36.  Is there a Ductor in the house for this ailment of mine?  I would love to get lost again on the bike....

If you ride in a day next week, let me know.  Many people have already said I am a lost cause.

buh dum, ching...  Roll Eyes


Maybe we should try to get a mellow group together this weekend. P2P take deux? Coffee at the Barking Dog in Lyons and a chill ride up the canyon...


BTW, WTF is wrong with you that you didn't enjoy the ride?! Even if it's a torrential downpour I usually can find a way to have fun. Geez, Randimus, get that girl off the road bike and back on the Capirex!  Cheesy
