I woke up today, got bored, and called my college friends up to see if they wanted to go out for a drive/ride.

I tried to be like the Stig, but I couldn't fit. :(

We ended up in a Walmart parking lot after a good 45 min ride/drive up 23N. There were some fun parts, but no where to stop.

Time to whip out the GPS!

We decided to go to some lake and do random stuff... like throwing a football in the parking area.

I was beat by the end of the day... we just sat at a near-by bench to chat and catch up with each other's lives...

Sounds like fun! Looks like you had the perfect conditions for it as well. I will be done with the semester next monday and plan to 'just ride' all day every day. I've been all bummed out for a few days due to the **** weather, but at least I'm not tempted to ride instead of working on my final projects.

So, did you burn them through some twisties?! Also, have you done any strait line pulls (ok, I'll say it, drag races) against those cars? If so; result?

Nice! I wouldn't joining you guys for a ride. I would probably blend right in.

Thanks guys. No we didn't do any races, but we drove/ride at a fast pace when possible, and switch leaders occasionally. We didn't want to get a ticket.
