Took the Ninjette on an SM ride - 10/8/08

[Alex]

Someone posted up a group ride for SuperMoto folks, figured I'd take the Ninjette along for some fun. Sure, we've got half the horsepower and half the suspension travel, but that makes it twice the fun!

First chunk of the ride was some of the fun goat trails around Skyline. But we ended up at a gate that I hadn't seen before, so I raised the white flag while the SM folks were able to continue up the dirt path while I patiently waited on the tarmac. It was a known dead-end, so we were able to meet up soon after for lunch before continuing the ride.

The Ninjette held up well! It has no complaints about being pranged for all its worth trying to keep up with faster bikes, and I certainly have fun trying. Here are some pics from the ride:
