Also bike might be down for a couple weeks due to a big time parts trade out

Isn't that what winter is for?  ;)

Thought that's what buddies with spare bikes were for  ;D

Eh it's a now or never sort of deal. He's got a full system with highmounts and the sort of rear sets I've wanted. Strike while the iron is hot

Said "a couple weeks"  ;D

Yes, you sure did.  But I happen to know someone with an extra bike laying around...

If you're looking for something to ride, I've got a Honda that kinda looks like a Monster.  A tiny blue 400cc monster.

Yuu can also borrow a Monster 620 or SV650 from me.

Hmmmmmmmm....What will Yuu do with his current exhaust?

I may be out next weekend both days , it just depends on how much time I  have to plan another route.

Yea?  Do tell! 

I still really like the roads you have led me through so far, especially the little mini-corkscrew section.   [evil]

Love the sound of a hill minicorkscrew. Do tell, where is this fancy feature?

Been out riding every chance I get (which is a lot since I only have a half time job for the rest of summer), but I don't want to be "that guy" that holds everyone up. Just ask Yuu...3rd grade girls on bicycles are faster than I am. Anyone up for a noobie ride some afternoon this week?

The rides that Lars has been leading out through southern Maryland have been quite newb friendly.  There are a few folks there that will move around at a good clip, but there is almost always a guy at the back that knows the route very well and makes sure that no one gets left behind.  They're a really good group, even though they are mostly Buell riders.   [cheeky]

Lars D

They are mostly  Buell riders however that is because no Ducs show up.

This past Saturday was not much fun , it is too much to deal with 11 riders.

As far as this weekend I will attempt to make it MUCH more interesting with a few more roads that I do know.

It's getting shipped off as part of this trade. Rearsets and exhaust, for rear sets and exhaust. He needs biposto rearsets and wants low termis. He's got cycle cat rearsets which I want and a '916 style' full system for a 900. I've been trying to get good deal on highmouts for ages.

Well if ridings in the cards this weeked - I'll happily accept someones gererous offer... Though I think the CB1 might die with me on it. 230 in full gear will punish that poor thing.
