Bear Mtn II Sat 6/23
We have similar roads west of hudson and I think saturday's crew would like them. . These are not as fast as 301 but we have a snake thru a residential area with an uphill switchback and a WOT road with little enforcement. Close by is 218, a Ducati Dealer for drooling purposes. There are sections with gravel for urban to play on and a launching pad for Fizz to catch air. The rest of us can ride at our own pace.

I think I'm OK for Sunday.
Study the road on google map. Unles you get off first at the bottom they will eat you but where it branches off to Perkins Drive is where you own the road. Big prob with bear mtn is, except after the very first sweeper....no place to pass safely. |

Hey...I'm in the Viagara generation...we know how to get stuff done. Didnt you see that commercial where the guy's '67 camaro is overheating and he stops and pisses in the radiator and then drives back to the nursing home ? Guaranteed I COULDA GOT THAT BIKE BACK TO qUEENS AND GUARANTEED THAT ANY OF YOU GUYS COULD'VE DONE IT TOO. Thinking out of the box is easy when you're senile. And then....when we reached TSP...who was it you or Fizzz....wanting to wire the thing together with weeds.....that was soo funny. Next trip...I'll show you how to roll bananna skins into joints. Called electrikal banannas. Circa '66 or '67.

I took a nice run down 301 after I left you guys. I actually went in the wrong direction but didn't mind much since the road as so nice. Long sweepers, a couple stretches to open it up, some nice tight corners, all with the lake/reservoir as a backdrop.
Great to meet you all and looking forward to riding with you again. I can't make it this Sunday but I'll stay tuned for the next one. Stay safe. |

Did the ride I laid out at the top of this post.
NW Jersey is beautiful with roads that are consistently clean, in good reapir and the ones i was on are made for bikes. Got on a few park paths that were no wider than the bike...sideways. HighPoint park is perfecdtly suited to beginners with tiny roads that are so clean and nice that you dont even wanna run them fast. OK....so who's up for tomorrow ? |

I'm going to pull the brake and the caliper and see if it's that/that area.

I removed my front brakes and moved the bike without it and it didn't make any sounds or scratching or anything. So hopefully by replacing them, the bike SHOULD be alright again! I'm going to buy 3 more sets to replace the back brakes and have some extra for days like this (i use to do the same with my car).
If what i was feeling was the brake wear indicator, that totally sucks but actually works! |

I think that will be totally awesome! We can do that, then a little night test (read: run) around the city or your area, or something else! Will be some more awesome video at night though! just saying. As for the video, you sure can. But you will get UNEDITED video which totally sucks a**! I'll try uploading to youtube and I'll send the links around. |

I got em, urbaninja came through! Thanks again. I do need to buy some more though, will be heading to dealer and see if he can get em for me as these only lasted around 4,500 miles. Something must have been bad on them. I'll have him do the rear cuz it looks like I'll have a hard time doing these (don;t have the right tools). Or I just might buy the right tools and do it myself.
