Best Ninjette ride of 2013!

ally99 · December 29th, 2013, 03:47 PM

Anyone care to share their best little Ninjette ride of 2013? (We know yours @Alex!

:bounce) Where did it take you? What about it kicked ass?

I didn't go on as many last year as usual. I guess in a significant sense, my best was my ride home on November 29...my first time on my brand new Ninja 300! It only had 2 miles on the ODO when I drove it out of the dealer's parking lot! Even though it was break-in and I wouldn't call it the most spirited ride, it was definitely the most memorable!

i think the best bike ride i've had this year was 2up in georgia on that shorter loop. the ride to laguna seca/monterey takes second. and then in third, in january or february i think me and kevin took our sport bikes offroading on an ohv trail to get to this little stream. it was fun

Ahhh, yes, with the annoying passenger who doesn't understand how to ride pinion and taps you to turn like miles early. Oops!

I think my favorite trip was the one from Mt Evans to Badwater.

Rode my little 250 from Fallon NV to Idaho Springs CO over a day and a half, then rode up to 14k feet and was able to see the sunrise over Denver. Cruised through six states, cutting through the breathtaking southwest, riding through cold, heat, crystal clear sunshine, and intense rain and lightning, to finish at the bottom of the continent under an intensely bright moon.

Everything about that trip sealed in why I love riding. The freedom, the sensations, the sense of place, and letting it all go. I can't wait for next year.

Up and down Mt. Washington in Vt.

Epic trip.

We hit great paved roads all around the area, railed on endless dirt forest service roads (at speeds they might frown upon) and hit the toll road up the mountain to a spectacular and surreal landscape above the tree line.

Amazing place, if you are close, make a point to visit.

Scraping pegs on the most dangerous road in the country, a single **** up and it's a hundred foot drop off the edge of the mountain.

A downhill decreasing radius turn almost upended me on that one
