We went on the Veterans day ride with some of the Pensacola riders. Rode down to Panama City Beach to see the "Moving Wall". Was pretty nice 1st ride with them :)

LoL ok! I will be the only 250 there though, unless Kerry shows up... need to get a camera mount so I can record me passing the Hayabusas and ZX14s. :-D

This will be the first time for me taking the bike out since I've got it tuned correctly, AND also the first time with the 15 tooth front sprocket.

I'll give you my full report, sir!

you mean with the 120 main?

don't see why you need a camera mount... you still have your left hand available as you pass the other bikes or are you too busy giving them the one finger salute? :eek:

Yep! :thumbup: Everyone has complained it was too cold, or has been drinking too hard to get up the next morning. I haven't gone riding with the group in about 5 weeks or so. I'm jonesin'!

The bike feels great, riding in the same places as I usually do the big as more nuts. But I will use those guys to guage the real performance of the bike, lol.

Well then, looking forward to your return!

The ride today was only me and one other guy on his ZX-14. Once I passed him in some of the twisties, I kept on it for a while because I had nobody else to pass. Before you know it, his headlight disappeared behind me. Its great when the guy on the big bike has to play catch-up! :D

Awesome! There are lots of good places out in the middle of nowhere near Stockton, AL. Also there are severaly good roads in the Blackwater State Forest. Just don't do anything stupid near any place you see houses. Rednecks are known to come running outside with shotguns. :thumbup:

Was hot as hell yesterday! like HOT! We got together with a couple groups of riders. Some Alabama forum, pensacola riders, florida sportbikers, some chic forum riders. Could count this forum in too, since I was there :) Anyway, was a pretty nice ride up around Loxley. About 280 miles for me all together.

Hope to see ya out there some time!

Anyone up for a ride this weekend? We're probably looking at Sunday. A trip through the countryside in an attempt to find...

:: dims the lights and holds a flashlight under his chin :::

*The Ultimate Road*

A friend of mind just got a new red 250 today, too. We're looking to get some miles and some experience under his belt, its his first REAL street bike, not one of those chinese-built oddities that really isn't street legal and blows up every time you roll out of your driveway.

Bob, do you take 98 over to Pensacola when you go? If I end up going on Sunday we could meet in Fort Walton and ride down 98 if you want. I'm in Crestview, but I don't use I-10 haha. I'll probably end up taking 90 or 98 depending on my mood and if anyone wants to meet and ride out to Pcola.

TheDuck

I am still talking with one of my local friends (with a ZX-14.) He always teases me about riding a 250 until we get deep in the twistsies. I'm trying to get together an army of 250s to make him want one, haha.

Anyways, I have at least 3 of us confirmed to go.

Tentative plan, this can be changed if its not good for everyone:

Sunday 7/12/09:
Meet at Bagelheads: 1791 East 9 Mile Rd - Pensacola http://maps.google.com/maps?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&ie=UTF8&q=bagelheads+pensacola&fb=1&split=1&gl=us&cid=4836041238702995772&li=lmd&ll=30.490101,-87.160034&spn=0.472168,0.899506&z=10&iwloc=A

There is a brand new Publix on there corner of 9 Mile Rd and University Pkwy. The Bagelheads is in a little building SEPERATE and ACROSS THE PARKING LOT from the Publix.

If you're a fan of Google streetview you will see a Albertsons where the Publix is now, if you have good eyes you'll see the blue Blockbuster awning that is still there now at the following link: http://maps.google.com/maps?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&ie=UTF8&q=bagelheads+pensacola&fb=1&split=1&gl=us&cid=4836041238702995772&li=lmd&ll=30.532102,-87.222798&spn=0,359.977276&z=16&iwloc=A&layer=c&cbll=30.53211,-87.222911&panoid=-itSC_r-nNt7IGMA6-26Sw&cbp=12,139.04,,0,-6.22

BagelHeads is right next door!
I'm thinking we'll meet about 10AM... kickstands up @ 10:30AM. Show up earlier if you want breakfast!

If anyone that wants to go and is unfamiliar with the area, let me know where you are familiar with here in Pensacola, and I will meet a group there and get you all out to BagelHeads to meet up with the rest.

July 7th, 2009, 03:37 PM
Where do you plan on riding to?

P.S.-Bob, we could do that. Just letting you know though, I don't haul ass much yet, you might leave me in the dust. I can't seem to stop getting blown off the road especially on 90 above 70mph haha.

Anyone want to ride Sunday, August 23rd? Hoping the weather will finally be cleared up. Haven't got to ride much lately, and was hoping to ride most of the day, just don't know where the hell to go. Any ideas?

You actually read my mind, Diemuzi and I were talking about this! What kind of thoughts do you have in mind?

I'm not really sure. I half-assed thought about Orange Beach or something, just a nice cruise. But I don't know. I don't know any of the fun spots to ride around here. Just figured Sunday would finally be a day we could probably ride since it's been raining like a son of a bitch lately every day out here. I get off at 2am Saturday night/Sunday morning and could probably be up and riding by 9 or 10. If you have any ideas, I'm down.

Hey Duck! I haven't forgotten about you guys and I keep looking to see if there is another ride going down.

Also, what was that twisty road we went down? I keep going to the same area but I can't find it! Tell me! Please!

I don't like posting that stuff publicly... law enforcement likes to read forums, too! :thumbup:

Not that we're going to do something illegal, but there's no sense in inviting an officer that hates sport bikes into the area.

Look for an PM from me.

Understood. Thank you very much. It is a very good road to practice and ride on. You don't even have to do anything crazy to enjoy it.

TheDuck

Its no Deals Gap, but it works.

The only problem with the roads around here is they aren't twisty enough (Deals Gap speed limit is 30mph and you don't need much more than that.)

In order to get the same *feel* on our small bendy roads you have to go faster. Plus we have no banked turns or anything spectacular, bleh.

Time to build a mountain of dirt someplace, and wrap a road around it. :thumbup:

You haven't answered when the hell we're going to ride again haha. Hit me up with that road information too. I keep thinking about heading back up there sometime, especially the road where you might lose your lunch.

Actually, I was thinking of that one, but leave from Pensacola, through Orange Beach, Gulf shores to Fort Morgan, then take the ferry across to Dauphin Island.

Alright I have Sunday and Monday off, September 27,28. Sunday has a 30 percent chance of rain, which could equal none, or 100 percent, according to the awesome weather folks. And 0 percent on Monday as of now. If yall want to go ride, I'm down for either day. Just let me know.

Well, Sean and I rode to the bike rally (Thunder week or some ****) in Panama City today. Gotta say, it wasn't looking like I thought it would. Guess we went on the wrong day. Sean saw a couple of 250's, and I saw a couple of chicks with their **** hanging out of their tops. I got to say though, the crusiers/choppers outweighed the sportsbikes 100 to 1, as did the not-so-pretty biker women to hot ass biker chicks. We took 98 into PC and out, and hit 331 on the way back, going out to 90, back west to 285, through Niceville a bit, then through Ft. Walton a bit. I think I put about 250 miles on the bike, and gotta say, Florida is ****ing flat and straight. No wrecks or close calls, until I left Sean and Ft. Walton. Got to 123 and 85 intersection. Was in the turning lane to head north on 85, in the right lane, next to some old folks in the left lane. Got the green arrow, I started going, gramps decided to make the left turn into my lane. I had to straighten out and hit the brakes, which brought me into the north bound lanes of 85. Luckily, no one heading north on 85 from niceville was there at the time, or I probably would have got slammed from behind. I flicked him off, and went about my business.

Anyways, gonna plan a trip up into Alabama. Who wants to go, and when is good for you. This will probably be on a Sunday, hopefully within the next month. Going to explore a little. Who's in?

Thanks for the offer to head out with you two, City riding just kills me. You should head out thru blackwater some time. It's in your back yard, and is a little hilly & twistie. Kinda got to watch out for the wild life, we got in just over 100 miles thru there today. It's really about the only place around here that makes you feel normal :)

TOMORROW: (taken from PensacolaRiders.com)

DO IT! I'll be with.

===============

The fall has set in. This comming week will be cool and its riding time.
So come one come all to the first fall ride to the Whalin Al. Hy 41. Some would know this as the Camden run.
We will meet at the Shell station at exit 5. This is where I-10 meets 9 mile road. Meet at 7:30am and kick stands up at 8:00 sharp. In consideration of (non)punctual people, we leave at 8:05 and that's final.
We will do our usual run through Stockton and then head North to Camden.
This ride will encompass 60% of the best twistier in this area. It will also be a 250 mile run. If you have to be back at a certain time, this ride is not for you.
We will stop and bullsh*t to let the crotch rocket boys stretch and have plenty of bullsh*t sessions. Bring some lunch money.
The ride will be adjusted to the participants, so if you want to bring Ma-Ma or some other large breasted women, that's fine.
NO ONE WILL BE LEFT BEHIND IF YOU FOLLOW THE RULES.
It would be nice if all the current people showed for this and maybe you could learn where the "secret squirrel club rides". All you Busa girls this means you.
Lets ride. and have fun
There are only 3 rules
Wear your gear
Shake hands with every one in attendance
RIDE YOUR OWN F*CKIN RIDE.
