dk58 · March 26th, 2011, 02:43 PM

Saw somebody on a black new gen in Robinson today, anybody from here?

Mekkakat · March 26th, 2011, 07:00 PM

not me! lol

Sixringz · March 26th, 2011, 07:02 PM

It was like 20 today!

Mekkakat · March 26th, 2011, 07:04 PM

I rode literally almost all day lol. 7AM to 7PM. It was pretty freaking cold by the time I got in haha.

ablackburn99 · March 27th, 2011, 07:57 PM

passed the motorcycle license test today. 13 points

0-20 = pass
20+ = fail

Mekkakat · March 27th, 2011, 08:01 PM

Hey congratulations! I also passed

highfive man!

congrats on the ninja too! I saw your earlier post and wondered why any one would ride from dawn to dusk on one of the coldest days of spring, then I realized you got a new bike.

Haha yeah. Thanks Adam!

Not me!

On another note, I've been out and about almost every day after work when it's not raining. If any of you are ever down in the Pittsburgh area (I live 5 blocks from Heinz Stadium), hit me up on here and we can meet up!

dk58 · April 10th, 2011, 04:00 PM

I go to school at CCAC Allegheny campus, so I'm always down there. Hopefully weather will be nice on weekdays so I can start riding

Mekkakat · April 15th, 2011, 05:40 AM

Saw a black newgen getting off at Green Tree during rush hour. I was riding too, but we were 3 lanes apart. Any of you guys?

dk58 · April 15th, 2011, 09:18 AM

Not I. Weather is getting good, we should try to set up a group ride soon

Mekkakat · April 15th, 2011, 09:31 AM

I'm all about it. We should all try and find a good day for next month

Dano · April 26th, 2011, 07:15 PM

If you guys get a ride together let me know I may be able to go.

dk58 · May 24th, 2011, 01:28 PM

Everybody still alive? We should set something up!

Mekkakat · May 24th, 2011, 01:30 PM

all about it! I'm always down as long as my band doesn't have a show (like this Friday).

dk58 · May 24th, 2011, 01:42 PM

What about a short notice ride this Sunday? Most people are probably busy because of the holiday Monday, but it would be worth a shot if anybody else wants to.

I might be able to do Sunday. I'm traveling Saturday, but I have to see what the rest of the folks are doing. I think some fam might be coming to town to my parent's house, but I'll check and let you know for sure

dk58 · May 24th, 2011, 01:51 PM

Sounds good. Hopefully we can get something regular going in the summer, if the weather ever decides to get predictable.

Dano · May 24th, 2011, 08:51 PM

I have to work sunday. Just bought a new house so I am busy with that, once it gets to be better weather everyone could come out my way tons of backroads, i got a nice loop I used to ride on my SV up to mt pleasant by seven springs out to ohio pyle into uniontown. about a 3-4 hr ride.

dk58 · May 24th, 2011, 09:26 PM

I would definitely be interested in coming out that way. A friend and I have talked about riding out Rt. 30 or something soon, so I bet he would be in as well.

Ria44 · September 27th, 2011, 01:35 PM

me!

miss_syn · September 28th, 2011, 08:55 AM

old bump but me too

rph12 · November 27th, 2011, 03:05 AM

I'm a student at Pitt now actually, from about 25 miles north of Pittsburgh previously. Been here pretty much my whole life. Just picked up my 250 yesterday from a guy up in Kittaning, now I'm always down for a ride with people.

dk58 · November 27th, 2011, 09:49 AM

Good to see somebody new. Are you living in Oakland? I always used to bomb through the road to the top of Schenley park. One of my favorite short rides

TBC · November 27th, 2011, 01:56 PM

I'll also chime in. Another Pitt student, got my 250 pre-gen this past October. Weather sucks today, though

.

bluebr65 · December 7th, 2011, 11:01 AM

Mt. Washington for me

Let's all ride in the spring!

Definitely! Freaking rain today is driving me mad

. Was going to head out for a ride last night, but it was "misting" in a very odd way. I could barely see out of my car - I didn't even want to try with my helmet

.

bluebr65 · December 7th, 2011, 12:02 PM

Ohhh the temptation was there for me too, hate this cold, I actually just put the bike away for the winter. Can't wait to get things organized for the spring!!!

onetruevibe · December 7th, 2011, 12:06 PM

I'm about 45mins north. Hit me up in the spring.

bluebr65 · December 7th, 2011, 12:11 PM

Def will be reaching out to everyone in the area once it warms up and the salts have gone away. If things work out we should make it a reoccurring ride.

miss_syn · December 7th, 2011, 12:58 PM

It did ice over in October once. All the nice days we've been having I seem to be busy, then when I have time nature's like "Oh hey, got your ship ready?"

bluebr65 · December 7th, 2011, 01:42 PM

So true, I'm just finishing up the winterization process. Oil changed, chain lubed, up on the stands, battery being tended, stabil + full tank + run thru carb ride. Lets see how creative things can get after that tax return

Snow's falling right now, north of the city.

I swear, it was only ten minutes later that I walked out the door, saw the snow ("wintery mix"...ugh), and swore under my breath

.

I've had the bike prepped for storage for well over a month

. Oil change, full tank, Sta-Bil in it, battery tender hooked up...I've only put on a good 250 miles since then

. No idea how to clean the chain and my garage isn't flat enough to put it on the rear stand, so those aren't on the list.

bluebr65 · December 8th, 2011, 09:20 AM

frigid this morn. why why why whaaaaaaaaa

miss_syn · December 8th, 2011, 02:04 PM

Sunday is looking hopeful for me. I'd like to get a last ride in.
