Black Monster w/black frame on Princess Anne heading south near Pungo around 9:00 this morning.  I didn't recognize it as anyone here, but you never know.  No riding for me this weekend but I did take a grinder to an extra clutch cover I had.  We'll see how it works out.

I just got back from DC...went to visit my momma!!! I'm not sure if anyone is going for a ride tomorrow...weather permitting I'll be out there somewhere. Be safe folks.
Word to your momma [thumbsup]

O.k., who ordered the crappy weather?
It blew so hard yesterday, it kept blowing out the flame on my gas grill!
How's a man supposed to feed the neighbors if he can't keep the grill going?

That was me.  Me and a friend (did you see the Harley Sportster in trail?).  We were going to take the Knotts Island ferry across to Carrituck, then go down to Kitty Hawk.  Ferry no worky and the wind was blowing so hard it almost blew us off the road.  Decided to bag it and headed back to the Peninsula.  Other than that, a fun ride.
2008 S2R 1k.  Black.  Pazzo Levers, 14 t front sprocket, CRG Hindsight LS mirrors, Cycle Cat Frame Sliders,  Oberon open clutch cover and gold/black EVR pressure plate, full Arrow exhaust with reflashed and mapped ECU, tail chop with gold Rizoma Avio 21 turn signals, Ohlins rear shock and Rizoma fluid reservoirs.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm already done.  It turned out pretty well.  From about 2 feet away it looks good.  But if you get up close you can see that I could have spent more time cleaning up the cuts with a file.  I am happy with it for a $5 rattle can, 1 hour of work and a little motivation from Will.

I don't know what I am going to be doing on Sunday until tomorrow night.  If I can fix my boat it will be fishing in the morning and riding in the afternoon.  If I can't fix it, I might as well ride all day.

What's up guys?  Good to see that there's a few other Duc riders here in the area.  I'm in Norfolk off Robin Hood Rd. and from what I've read it sounds like a couple of you are right down the road from me.  Bought an 03 Monster 620 about a month ago and looking to do some more riding if the weather and my work schedule allows it.  Hope to meet up sometime!

Steve,
Congrats on  the Monster, and welcome. Yeah, Kris, Shon, and I live within spitting distance of you. We keep growing like this, and we'll have to apply for our own club!
Dave,
What's up w/the boat? Clutch cover? ;D Need help? I sank mine, I bet I could sink yours too!
Will, post a link to the event, I'll see if I can make it.

Sunk yours?  :o Nope don't need any help.   ;)  I won't be taking a grinder to any of the engine components either.  The trolling motor broke last week.  I need a new (used) one or this one rebuilt.  There is a shop in Suffolk that does that kind of work, I'll be calling them tomorrow.
