Anyone have any good riding planned for the weekend?
Been jonesin to ride for two months now, so Scarlet and I will be spending some good quality time together this weekend (Chris is coaching, so Scarlet will keep me company).
Doing a Bears for Bears poker run kinda ride tomorrow (ABATE is putting it on; it's to get bears and stuffed toys for kids)... Sunday, the usual group ride (hah, "usual".. it's been months since I've done a "usual" Sunday ride... I can't wait!). Everyone ride safe! |
they're predicting snow... so yeah :lol:
I'll probably get a couple hundred miles in before it flies. |
Yeah- actually heading out here shortly. Local group is doing a decent ride around the island, hitting some decent roads, then getting together for a BBQ. Should be a good time. ;)
|
We'll see... my weekend is a bit packed.
Tonight drinks and billiards for a buddies b-day Big Rivalry game tomorrow for my Alma Mater Sunday Bond and then help one of my classmates study for a test on Monday. |
Neeb, you're gonna get a coldfront coming through tomorrow so gear up warmly, we're gonna get the cold on Sunday. I'll be kid free next week so hopefully I'll be out almost every night on the bike somewhere.

Since the weather people are calling for thunder showers saturday, I'm hoping to get some miles in on sunday. It's supposed to be in the 40s so I'll just ride during the day :dthumb:

Ugh! Hopefully they can contain it before it destroys anything else. :(
Thats the one thing i do not miss, fires out there. Stay safe. |
Yeah Sat and Sun...its supposed to be 86 each day. :rockwoot:
|
Welp, I missed the bears for bears ride... it started storming over night and was raining steadily till just a few minutes ago. We're in a little clear spot, but radar shows much more headed our way, dammit.
Hoping it'll dry up this afternoon at least, and I'll just go for a solo ride up to Fernandina or something. Quote:

Nope Jeeps and I are in the "big" truck right now trying to beat the snow home. Hope we make it cause WV suck in the snow when your pullin two trailers.
|
What is this "snow" thing that y'all keep talking about? :stirpot:

Alright so Mother Nature was being funny (not hah ha funny) today.
Sun came out, rain went away.... weather channel reduced the chance of rain from 50% to 30%.... since it's at least 30% chance of rain EVERY day in Florida, I headed out to meet my friends. And since it was bright, sunny and 80 degrees, I did so in mesh jacket and dark visor. Hah. Bad idea. Rain came back. With a vengeance. With it came about a 25 degree temperature drop. So, 154 miles later, I'm home, cold and wet. :lol: (still, a bad day of riding is better than a day with no riding at all :lol: ) |
We had our first official snow in Denver yesterday, a tenth of an inch. Out here, that's how they measure precipitation. I rode up Lookout Mountain today, but stopped just before the upper switchbacks. At around 7,000 feet and in permanent shade of some evergreens, it looked very shiny and wet. The temp was in the lower teens yesterday night, and I didn't want to chance it being icy.
Tomorrow it's supposed to be in the 60's and Tuesday near 70. I'll be riding with my friend Neal who got a new Suzuki DL650. I only have 70 miles on my new tires, so I'll take it easy on the corners. |
I get to go to California Superbike School at Laguna Seca on Monday. Not technically the weekend, but I got the day off, so it is kind of a weekend for me. I'm so excited. :rockout:

Nice! I am jealous :) |
Heading out in about an hour to meet up with a few peeps for an all-day ride. I think we're heading into the Ocala Forest... :woot:
|
Just so you know... you all suck. It is in the 30's here.
|
I wish. Been busy the past two weekends and now we have guests coming in for the next couple of weeks. I think my wife's friend's husband rides, though...so when they are here maybe I can get him out for a ride in the mountains.

|
I decided that unless there is snow on the ground at thanksgiving, I am riding my bike the 3 hours back home and back to here. Fuck the cold, I'll bundle up with under armour cold gear at the bottom.

|
Since it's snowing here AND my bike it totaled, the only thing I WANT to ride is the hot little number that sits 1 row over from me. Only problem is..... I'm married so I cant. :idk:

The Superbike School was incredible. #1 was Laguna Seca. Couldn't have been a better day. A little chilly in the morning, but warmed up nicely. Not a cloud in the sky. The track was excellent. So smooth. I started out pretty slow, just learning the bike and the track. By the end of the last track session, I was going so much faster, but not working harder. They definitely lay it out to you in the simplest terms, and you get on track instruction, and debriefing after each run. Highly recommend it. WHOOOOOO!!!!!! |
