Hampton Roads Ducati thread

Saw you guys pass by while I was driving my GF's Yaris @ Princess Anne near sand bridge.  Wished I could have gone out but I have to watch the Skins play!

Good (if slow) ride today, guys (and Nikita).
Good to meet you Shon, Troy, Nikita, we'll set something up for next weekend.

Bulldog, Kris, one question - What's it like to be that whipped?

//I keed, I keed!//

[swalter]

It was great meeting you guys today. Maybe we can get a Tidewater Ducati riding group thing happening? Yeah, we really need to head out toward route 10, Smithfield, Suffolk.....anywhere that traffic lights are rare .....talk about a buzz kill! Traffic is a killjoy!

Keep in touch..................oh................nice bikes you guys!!!!

[Bun-bun]

Thanks, Swalter.
Which bike were you riding?

It was nice to see three Ducatis while we were out today. Hopefully they'll find their way here.

Before I left home for the ride today, I dropped my wife off at Norfolk Gen'l for some tests. I expected her to be at the house when I got back, but it turns out that she was admitted, and will be at the hospital for a couple of days. Her Potassium was way low, and she was in serious danger of a heart attack from it.
Since they caught it in time, there shouldn't be any real problems. Just one of those things.

Sorry about that! Swalter is Shon. It's my old log in and I did not notice it when I was home till after I posted.

Hope all is well.....just the start of another week in paradise!

Well guys I'm glad that you all had fun this weekend. I ended up going to D.C. to see my beloved Skins play. I really wish that I was with you guys but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to fly up (My boss has a jet) see the game and be back home before 6 to finish my homework. I hope you all are going to have a few more rides if the weather holds up. I'm down for whatever as long as my homework is set!!!

Oh by the way...I am whipped and proud of it Jeff...I am very sorry to hear about the Mrs. I am glad that they caught it before it got to serious.

Does anyone have any pics? Want to see how the 757 boys roll!!!

What!   You suck!  Next time you have a extra ticket..... I'm down!  My sunday rides are going to be on hold due to the grid iron game.

Kris, I definately can't blame you for taking that oportunity.

Bulldog, I have three letters for you     D.....V.....R!  Get out and ride, the TV can wait.

Just finnished a 200 mile, straight highway ride up to DC.  Traffic wasn't bad at all, but I'm not sure it was a whole lot of fun.  Stopped by Coleman power sports.  They have a few Ducati's in stock, no monsters. Pair of 1098's, pair of Hypermotards, a 848, and an STS3.  Can't wait until Wednesday afternoon when I get to ride the twisties to Duc Pond and back then hit up Rhodeside at night.   [moto]  And this is suposed to be a business trip.   
Now it is off to try to find a place to watch monday night football.

Whats DVR?   

I'm too cheap to get it...

[Bun-bun]

Kris,
Can't blame you. Free jet ride, and a skins game? Hell yeah!
I did a job for a guy a couple years back who had his own learjet. Twice he took us out in it, once we went to lunch at a club in NYC! And, no, not a nightclub, this was like the Hahvahd club.
Anyway, Margie's still in. Evidently it's worse than I thought, and they're still doing tests, trying to figure out what's wrong. I'll keep y'all up to date.
Dave, glad your ride was uneventful. Enjoy your monkey business trip.
Jeff

I hope the wifey gets better!

Ok the small talk...The jet trip was cool. This got gets the whole trip catered and all the free booze you could ever want. I am not a big drinker so only a few beers for me (not to mention last year we rode up in a Hummer strstch limo and I got so drunk I pissed in a beer bottle). Landed and rode a limo right up to the elevator that takes us up to his suite. Nice seats with our own waitress and a buffett behind the seats. TV's, A/C...Life is grand. It made me feel rich. The company was not so great as the guys who were their with us have done this for years and seemed to want to make me inferior because I have only been twice. Very uncomfortable. Anyhow...The game was awesome and since I am a skins fan (have a shrine in my house and actually come from N.E. DC) it was nice to come away with a win. Flight home was super quick and goodbyes, thank yous were even quicker. I tell you what the guy who took me was super cool...they guys who he is paying for...azzholes...enough small talk.

Jeff, WTF is going on over there?! Do you need anything or is there anything that I can do to help? Are you eating? Do you need me to start swinging dinner by? Please let me know if there is anything that you need at all. If I can do you know I will!!!

What's the plan this weekend? I'm free all day Sunday. I'm up in Newport News but I like heading out in the Smithfield direction.

[wllgmr]

Im going for a ride this evening. Who wants to meet me in Suffolk around 6ish? Or maybe I'll leave town if anyone is riding.
