Memorable weekend...

Was the weather okay? Did you manage to get some riding in?

[nicrosato]

Some rain showers Saturday, but I think lots of people got in 300-350 mile rides. No rain on Sunday.

Loads of fun. Glad I managed to make it. Of course, the brakes went out on my car on the trip home and one of the straps holding my Duc down snapped but you can't win them all. And only 3 run-ins with law enforcement for me for the weekend...

hopefully in the next couple of days matt can get the videos that we got up for y'all....

it was a great ass weekend....i miss my mojo already...i hope your ready for next year women

And only 3 run-ins with law enforcement for me for the weekend...

After numerous run-ins with state troopers in Colorado several years ago, I swore I would never step foot in that state again. So far, so good.

[GAAN]

you missed out

I was bummed that I was missing out

and then

several dozen drunken strangers managed to freeze my iphone's voicemail feature with long dissertation questioning my sexuality and my mother's virtue

I drank myself to unconsciousness that night

and went on a nice long hungover moto ride out into the desert

it was like I was there

 

[DucMouse the Mighty]

when matt gets drunk he misses ya and wants to call ya...soooo he decided it would be a great idea to have everyone call ya

[GAAN]

I was missing him too so Jess and I rode out to the scene of his cow watching crash on Sunday

hadn't been out there since it happened and I think that was 07 or 08

great ride

made us both realize that we have been off the bikes for most tof the summer and Red Mt pass would have been a little much

still missed having lunch in Telluride and Goat Vodka  and Mojo's mojoness

Most definitely. Colorado is beautiful. But those state troopers have a field day when they see out-of-state plates. I had a state trooper follow me for about 20 minutes coming down a mountain pass (I was driving a car with California plates). I was going a couple ticks UNDER the speed limit. Well, after 20 minutes, he finally thought of something he could pull me over for, and his lights lit up.

I pulled over. He comes up to me and says, "do you know why I pulled you over?".

I said "I have no idea, but I can't wait to hear it."

Officer: "Well, did you see that police vehicle we passed about a quarter mile back on the side of the road with its lights flashing?"

Me: "Yeah...why?"

Officer: "Well, the state law is that you are required to change into the next lane as you pass a stopped emergency vehicle, to give them extra room."


Me: "And how was I supposed to know that?"
