Yikes!

I thought my 12 on/12 off schedule was bad when I worked for the local Sheriff's Dept in county lock up corrections. What do you do Addy? Nurse, EMT, paramedic? How long is your shift?
I've always wanted to be a firefighter, but I'm just not sure if it's feasible at this time...

Hey Rick, is there any way you can edit your original post with the time/place/date we're doing this thing and any other useful info please? Lil easier to find info that way instead of having to dig through this thread. Thank you!

Snake · May 5th, 2009, 06:15 PM

Will do.

Snake · May 6th, 2009, 06:31 AM

The date, time, place and map has been added to the first thread.

Just make sure you note that the huge piece of concrete is a street, and we will meet behind those gas pumps. I don't want anyone parking their bike in the middle of the road!

Here

Snake · May 6th, 2009, 11:57 AM

Ok I will add that also.

wazioc · May 6th, 2009, 12:30 PM

Lookin good so far... We had talked about doing a backpacking trip over memorial day weekend thouhg

Not sure what we'll decide on in the end, but hopefully we can come out and meet you all since we' only about an hour away (Assuming we arent out camping somewhere)

Snake · May 6th, 2009, 12:33 PM

You can camp and ride. Heck I may need a place to stay Saturday night and camping underneath the stars sounds like a good idia to me!

Snake · May 10th, 2009, 02:22 PM

We are going to stick with the Fulshear location at 10 a.m. on the 23rd. I added dates, times, location and maps on my first post. Looks like we are going to have about 10 bikes.

I'm trying to wait until I get beyond my "break in" time before I really start to rack up the mileage, but other than that I'd be totally down for a ninjette rally!

How to break in a Ninja:
1. Warm up engine thoroughly while riding to a nice back road.
2. Spank that little puppy till it hollers!!! Make good use of the 9K - 11K power band. Redline it a few times.
3. Take milk and cookie break, then ride it at 70 - 80 mph for a while to get to some more good back roads.
4. Repeat # 2.
5. Repeat # 3.
6. Repeat # 2 & #3 all day long.

Go home and get a good night's sleep
Repeat # 1 - # 6.

It will be broken in, and running like a champ.

Snake · May 18th, 2009, 06:52 AM

I am watching the weather forecast very closely. So far they are calling for scattered thunderstorms which is typical this time of year. I will keep watching and keep everyone informed.

bob706 · May 18th, 2009, 11:01 AM

I got caught in some rain this past weekend - on a two mile long bridge - not fun at all. If I can't pick up some rain gear before this weekend I may have to bail on this trip.

Snake · May 18th, 2009, 11:18 AM

No prob I understand. I'm crossing my fingers that the weather will be good.

Apex · May 18th, 2009, 06:53 PM

I hope to get the bike put back together by this weekend. Not only that, but I need to break in the new tires before I even think about taking it out when it is raining.

bob706 · May 20th, 2009, 12:41 PM

just took a look at the forecast for this weekend and its calling for all kinds of rain along the whole gulf coast. i'll keep checking the next two days and if it doesn't look i'm not gonna chance getting rained on for 600 miles. hopefully the weather will cooperate.

I hear ya. I have been watching the weather closely as well. Friday at noon I will make the call whether I'm going or not.

sometimesido · May 20th, 2009, 04:08 PM

could have been 12...ah well.

Snake · May 21st, 2009, 04:38 AM

I just took a look at the long range forecast and they are calling for thunderstorms all weekend. Unfortunately this means we will have to cancel the Rally.
Can one of the locals from either Houston or Dallas take the lead and start planing onother ride for sometime in June? I realy would like to meet as many of you all as possible, ride amd compare bikes.
Thanks for everyones input.

Nauboey · May 21st, 2009, 06:16 AM

this sucks

bob706 · May 21st, 2009, 06:45 AM

If this gets rescheduled for june I'm game for all but the first weekend.

Cool. Lets get onother discusion going and then start onother thread once we get a date, time, place, etc.

Alex · May 21st, 2009, 09:32 AM

I'm sorry to hear that. Darned weather!

Snake · May 21st, 2009, 09:34 AM

Yes this pattern of raining on the weekends has got to change!!!!!

Nauboey · May 21st, 2009, 11:30 AM

How about the 2nd weekend of June the 13th?

Snake · May 21st, 2009, 01:49 PM

June 13th will work for me.
Everyone please post your ideas / suggestions.

bob706 · May 21st, 2009, 07:09 PM

My wife says I can go the second weekend in June.

I don't really need her permission, I'm just saying. Maybe the motorcycle gods will spare us the rain that weekend.

Apex · May 22nd, 2009, 12:07 PM

I won't be able to make it on the 13th, anniversary weekend. I will be busy all weekend long.
