You know, We have a number of riders in the philly riders thread too....Maybe we could get a group ride going one weekend.

Boosted139 · October 7th, 2011, 03:06 PM

I'm in, as long as I don't get lost on my way to the meeting spot haha. Going to be an early morning... see you all there!

WhiteRice · October 7th, 2011, 06:40 PM

I just rode the route. Got lost, but I know what I did wrong. Should be a good ride

I'll be there early to get a cup of coffee and something to eat.

sikuss · October 7th, 2011, 07:08 PM

I'll be there tomorrow.

Lockshi3 · October 7th, 2011, 07:11 PM

In as well

sikuss · October 8th, 2011, 02:20 PM

Great ride everyone -- good scenery! Here are my pictures..

Pit Stop at OCC

Does the third "C" stand for Can-Ams?

WhiteRice · October 8th, 2011, 03:15 PM

Ditto sikuss, kamikaze squirrels!

Video from today, riding parts are at 2x speed.

Next time I'll turn the camera around so there is actually something to look at. Also my 32GB card arrived today so we have more than an hour of film time to work with.

Link to original page on YouTube.

Boosted139 · October 8th, 2011, 03:32 PM

Kamikaze squirrels and killer bees! Great ride, hope to do it again soon.

WhiteRice · October 8th, 2011, 06:40 PM

You guys still down for covered bridges? It's more of a fun run than anything else. If so let me know and I'll start planning it.

Also post up your routes or events and I'll link them accordingly.

Back to our conversation during lunch. Some interest in track days were mentioned. Would anyone be interested in taking an ARC?

Definitely, you guys come up with a good route that ends with good food and we'll be there.

Keep it around the Delaware

I like the covered bridges run since it's down my way

sikuss · October 9th, 2011, 06:55 PM

Definitely down for the covered bridge run. You inspired me to pick up one of the contour cameras, so maybe we'll have some more footage to work with next time.

When you say ARC, are you referring to the MSF ERC: http://www.webbikeworld.com/motorcyc...-rider-course/ or the TC ARC: http://www.tonystrackdays.com/catego...j-schedule.htm

http://www.webbikeworld.com/motorcyc...ing-clinic.htm

The reviews make it seem like ARC is a better (i.e. more fun) course.

Lockshi3 · October 9th, 2011, 09:13 PM

Definitely down for covered bridges...

great ride and scenery... here are some of my pictures:

What's included in the service? The oil and filter are a breeze.

WhiteRice · October 13th, 2011, 09:26 AM

Oil/filter, spark plugs. Then a bunch of visual inspection stuff.

My friend and I actually just changed our oil/filter last weekend in our ninjas, if you want, you can come by and I'll help and show you how to change yours. I'm from jersey city btw..

I'll take point for some of the ride -- as always I'll have the phone w/ TomTom and my headphones, let's just hope the hunk of junk actually gives directions!

Also, I'm going to bring the contour along to test it out.

Thanks sikuss, you'll take the second leg of the journey after our break at bridge #3. The tough part about this trip is that it's not all point to point; sometimes you have to go a round about way to get to a bridge.

http://goo.gl/zoRQz

Here are some directions I made up that you can tape to your tank if you like, your part is page two. Basically the format is, "TURN - ROAD (Note/Landmark)".

Whiterice - thanks..yeah those are my cheekpads...as you can see there was a lot of dirt..and I've only used that helmet a few times so I'm sure all those dirt I got from my crash...beats me how it got in my helmet! lol

Lockshi3 - thanks! actually feeling better now...too bad the bike is in bad shape..

and I already ordered replacement parts and some gear...I guess its time to start modding the bike..

safe ride tom! post pics!

sikuss · October 14th, 2011, 08:29 PM

I removed my Puig double-bubble and reinstalled the stock windscreen. If any of you guys wants it you can take it for free; otherwise I'll post it up in the for sale forum.

I'd gladly use it. Just name your price, I can't take it for free! Why'd you go back to stock? Just curious.
