That meeting spot is just for the possible MD rt17 trip on the 15th. I will likely not be attending the skyline drive meet.

I guess It's safe to say that we can make a new thread for the skyline "stroll"
The skyline drive "stroll" is gonna be on A Saturday, October 22nd. Meeting place is at Sheetz in Haymarket Virginia, Time is still undecided. What do you guys think of 9am or 10am? earlier? Do you guys want to do the whole skyline drive or just half? It's gonna take approximately 3 hours to ride the whole skyline. Please bring your cold weather gear. According to weather.com the weather averages on that day is gonna be to 65 hi - 40 lo. Address: Sheetz 15315 Washington Street Haymarket, VA 20169 I would have to say that I still consider myself a new rider and I don't have a stand alone GPS, so If anyone wants to lead the group please do. I'm afraid that I would mess-up the whole group if I lead. Who's coming? 1.kaiserz 2.hoodadooda 3.hoodadooda's friend 4.jamesio 5.kcaja1 ? 6.Live2ride ? 7.Momaru ? 8.gogoKawi ? 9.Honko ? I might be able to get 3 more 250 riders to come and join |

I have to say, that sheetz is an awesome place to meet up. I got gas there the other day for 15-20 cents cheaper than anywhere else I've seen . Plus I already know where it is . I really really really hope I can go.

I just found out we have a wedding party planned on the 22nd . I'll have to probably work all day; if I can convince my manager to bring me in at say 3pm then I might be able to make it if it's an early ride. Unfortunately I think they want me to work open to close.

I should definitely be there for the 22nd ride. Had potentially conflicting events with my girlfriend, but those have since been rescheduled.
I vote for 10am meet time in Haymarket since that'll let me sleep in til 5am, instead of needing to get up at 4am to make the ride.

If I am able to go, maybe we could meet up on your way past my town and ride up to Haymarket as a duo. I know where it is.

I guess the meet-up time is 10am then. One more question, do you guys want to do the whole skyline? that's aprox 3 hours one way + break/rest.

I'm happy either way. If we don't do the whole thing, I might ask for recommendations of other good roads in the area, esp twisties. If that winds up being the case, anyone else will be more than welcome to join/lead
No sense in riding 4 hours one-way to go home early

Sounds like the whole 9 yards, unless there's a lot of objection. I'll probably still wanna find some twisties along the way (or more likely afterward), just fair warning

Guys change of plan.
We're gonna change the meeting place to Shell 10 South St # 1, Front Royal, VA (540) 635-1499 it's more practical, so we can just gas-up and go strait to skyline (: |

Ok everyone, I'm off work the 22nd and it seems that the weather will be in the mid 60's and sunny / partly sunny on Saturday . One question though, I figured I'd take my 250 to the group ride since it is a ninjette specific ride; but I just got my zx6r insured and was wondering which one you guys would prefer that I ride? I can't remember the last time I went there (way before I started riding) so I figured it would make more sense and be safer to take the 250, right?

Great! I was hoping you would be able to join. As far as which bike to ride, it is ultimately up to you, but I think ninja 250s look awesome in packs and I highly recommend you take the more comfortable one since you will spend a considerable amount of time in the saddle. |

I just realized if we do end up having the family get together on the 22nd it would probably be in the late afternoon/evening, so I am definitely up for going! (if I can get up).
I live in Fairfax so if any of you are near and want to meet up somewhere and ride to the official meet up spot (an hour ride in itself, for me at least) let me know. |

You think the ZX is comfier than the 250? I would have figured it to be the other way around because of the riding position. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten a chance to actually ride one yet... |
