I'll be over there tonight having a beer. Hope to see you out there.
Ill head down for a little bit. I'll be there about 5
Awesome. I'll be over there about 5:30 PM. I have to work and r/t from work to home and back down, that's about 5:30.
Blue jeans!
WIsh I had seen this earlier, I would've swung by and said hi, a little more difficult living in Stead now!
Great! You've got a place, now it's time for a bike, there speedy!
Ran into Wills. Same Wills we've always known, full of piss and vinegar. 288 was there too, walking around checking out the bikes. Wills has been riding the same roads we have, only his schedule has him opposite the regular 9 - 5. I'll let him tell the story in his own words if he chooses. Things might be changing for him here in a couple weeks, so we may have the ol' cigar smoking, law enforcement chiding Wills along for a ride in the not too distant future.
:clap :thumbup
TB5 and I will be there tonight. Stop on by.
who is thinking about going this week? I think I might be able to sneak down there.
I shouldn't have a scheduling conflict. See you down there, if you decide to go. I'd like to compare notes on your Saturday morning ride.
Forgot I'm traveling that day. I might be back and I might not. Assume not given r/t time back to the house and commuting over to PJ's.
It kinda sucks if you don't know anybody there. I'm not fascinated enough with what few sportbikes are there to strike up a conversation with anyone, that's if I can find the owner of the bike I'm curious about.
I should qualify the last post as well. That would all change if two things were to happen at PJ's bike night. For one, if they had free beer, that would probably make for a more enjoyable outing. The other would be if we took away all the men and replaced them with hot single women of all ages. That would really spice things up!
I think my wife and I will be there tomorrow :)

They would be packed if they did that.
I think I'll head over there tonight for a cold one.
How was it? I had a chance of making it over there late, but got roped into doing more work after I returned to town. Didn't get home until after dark.
It was pretty good. Big at and I had dinner there and checked out bikes and watched the replay of the last motogp race
My wife and I had dinner and looked around for a bit. Good variety of bikes.
Do all these people who bring their bikes to PJ & Co actually ride them, or just shine them up and park them? If so, why aren't we riding with any of them on Sundays?

It's mostly Harleys down there, but there are a few sport bikes and some classics
I should be heading down there shorty
Biggest group of SSA and former SSA riders yet! That was fun. Scenery was better tonight too!
It was fun. Hopefully we can get more and more to come out
Just a heads up.
Can't go tonight. Work.
I won't be joining the fun on Wednesday. I have other plans. :-\ Sorry. I'd still encourage you guys to meet up there or even decide on going somewhere else, if that suits you.
Have fun!
I am going to try to bring Mrs. Cobra23, which means she will be riding on the back from Ferntucky to work in the morning.
Hope to see some of you there, I will be on the Ducati S4R..its blue and white. Gonna try to bring a new Ducati rider with me. "Jarrod" bought a 796 Monster.
Wed. the 16th.
Well we did not make it to the bike night.
I will be there next Wednesday though.
I should be able to make it too.
I might be able to sneak down for a little bit
I'm planning on having a beer and hanging out after work.
Planning to come down with the Mrs around 6 and have dinner.
I got Mrs. Cobra 23 to ride in from the ferntucky with me this morning, I will be there for dinner, and possibly with a new Ducati owner in tow.
Blue Monster S4R (me)
Black 796 Monster (other guy)
I'll try to remember to wear my black SSA T-shirt. Come over and say hello.
Rich. How was bike night, sorry I had to split once you guys got there, family blew a tire on there trailer and I had to go out on 80 to help them fix it.
Tons of people there tonight. If anyone wants a CBX-1000, there was one for sale for only $9,999. I'm nostalgic about a cool classic, but not ten grand worth.
Sorry I missed everyone. I arrived late and left early.
Nice evening at PJ's. Some nice classics there, old Honda racer, vintage Indian, and beautiful 3 wheel HD delivery trike. More sport bikes than usual.
Daniel covered the early shift, I covered the middle and GM late.
I was there, I made it to a social event...... but failed at meeting anyone.
Socially not capable.
Me
Ducati report, Cobra?
I actually saw only three Ducati's. All three were Monsters.
Mine, the 796 and an S2R. Spent a great deal of time studying the KZ's that were there. There was also an SR 650 (1978 special KZ) those are especially cool.
I am thinking there were about 50 bikes altogether. Lots of nice people, no loud mouthing or showboating that I saw, it was very nice.
Food is always good too at Pj's.
I got so burnt out at work today and ended up sidetracking me. Didn't make it out tonight. Although, with the threatening skies, that could have been a blessing in disguise.
I'm betting the rain in the mountains is going to remain stationary like it has been. C U over there, for those interested. A beer is in order tonight!
Come share my chips and salsa. Wearing a jean long sleve, straight in. Come in and say hi!
How long you hanging out GM?
I'm eating dinner now, but going to meet slmoto at A&W at 7:00pm to go over roads down in the Santa Cruz Mountains where he will be visiting friends this weekend.
Mel
i got it wrong. Big drops coming down. Just me from SSA. I'm thinking it's going to let up. :hiding :rainday
I just texted slmoto to see if he wants to meet up at PJ's instead. I'll update you when I hear from him.
Mel
GM, I'm headed down now and slmoto will be there in about 20 minutes. See ya there!
Mel
That was enjoyable and my bike got washed. Can't beat that! :|) Dry getting there. Dry inside while I ate and hung out with Mel and SL. Dry going back. It all worked out. :angel
Had a great time hanging out with you GM and SL! Good conversation on bikes and life in general 8)!
Mel
Yeah, good times. Great talking with you guys and hanging out. Thanks for the Bay Area ride info Mel.
You know when I got home, I started thinking about the generation gap between us! I am 15 years older than GM, and he is 15 years older than SL :)! 65/50/35...If we would have had a 20 year old there that would have been crazy ;D!
Mel
Did you two catch the YT video I was talking about in the Regular Members section?
I am planning to be a PJ's Wed, probably be there about 6, and get a bite to eat. Would be nice to hang with some SSA folks.
I'm kinda new at this bike night scene stuff, but I'll be there. :angel
Getting off work here in a few. See you over there Rich and anybody else wanting SSA company.
Sounds good. Monica and her friend Laura will be there too. Need to feed and walk the dog and will head down. Be there 6ish.
Enjoyed the company last evening at PJ's, nice evening to be out. Fun visiting with GM, Laura and Tom (nice meeting his lovely wife finally). GM even got to play motorcycle dominos with a FJR and Connie.

Who's going?
Late, but it kind of skipped my mind tonight.
I need to start getting in on this. Im too lazy to read the whole thread, when is this held?
Too busy killing your Mun astronauts?
http://www.pjandco.net/bike_night.html
I won't be able to make it to PJ's on Wednesday evening. I have another BBQ to attend in the afternoon.
Be careful where you park and be sure to use a side stand coaster to prevent your bike from tipping over. Nothing worse than having your pride and joy damaged unnecessarily. If you don't have a block of wood or something solid to put under the stand, PJ has some plastic ones for the asking. He's a great guy and genuinely wants your experience there to be a good one.
Damn GM, between goat roads and PJ's, you are having the worst luck with plastics!
Mel
Perhaps. I was really depressed after the PJs deal and it took me several days to put it into perspective. It's just one of those things that happen and there's nothing that can be done about it. It wasn't done intentionally and after she's all fixed back to her original condition, nobody will be able to tell the difference. And even if she's not, it's just a machine; metal and plastic.
The drama being self-inflicted about it pales by comparison to people's lives who are experiencing real problems in this world.
With the older bike's fairing crack, that's happened before. They're aftermarket ABS. I had the under cowling snap one side off already from a burst of water hitting it, while riding in the rain. It's been reinforced from the inside, so you can't tell unless you look to see why there's an additional screw in that area.

Who is thinking about head down tomorrow?
If I don't forget, I could go.
I wonder if we should try to sneak in a quick VC run before dark too. Interested?
I'd be interested in going, even more so if the VC run happens!
I think I would be game for a vc run
I'm a maybe. Have a 7 commute to Battle Mtn today. Leave details as to when and where you are meeting for VC run and if I can make it will join.
Dusk is 7:15 tonight and I'd prefer not to ride too much after that. Which means, that if we're going to do a short ride to the Highlands and back, we'll need to get going by 6:30 PM from PJs. That should give us enough daylight to be off of the hill before dark.
I still have to get a tire on the bike. This week has been my hell week for work and I haven't had time to get that done. It's going to be a marathon.
I'll have a new tire on by tonight. Work may be a problem though. People keep adding more and more work to my plate. :rant
screw work. lol you should have started earlier.

Yeah, I shouldn't be going because I have way too much work to get done too but I have to squeeze some fun in. I'll be going back into work after the ride for a few more hours.
I think as motorcyclists we think like we're at the smorgasbord. Start with the dessert isle first, then once finished, move on to the vegetables and grains. :evil1
After a nice home made top shelf margarita the ride was out of the question! Hope you guys had fun.
It was a good ride, I should have worn my leathers tonight. But going up almost no cars and coming down wasnt bad either

PJ's had some big deal with KTM and doing pictures with hot women near your bike for charity, but it all started after dark and we had plans already.
The four of us made our way out the back. Just before we departed, I told SL and 288 to expect the usual stop at the bottom, but the whole way from the lit intersection at the bottom of Geiger to the chain up area, all the cars had turned off. The only soul left was a HD rider, so we proceeded up behind him. By the time our group of four reached the lookout, there wasn't a car within sight going all the way up the mountain. It was a wild experience. On the way back, we had stopped to wait for a clearing, but there always seemed to be some traffic heading down. Finally, we just decided to go, except it was a false start. TB5 headed out first with cars directly in his path, but then I thought I'd hang back for a bit to see if there was a gap to take advantage of. The other two hung with me. We made a nice ride back, with the exception of a brief stoppage for horses crossing the roadway.
If TB5 was at the bottom when we arrived, we couldn't tell. We never caught up to him. And since many of us had chores to do tonight, we just proceeded back home, splitting off on the freeway as we found our exits.
It was a splendid little ride, if I do say so myself. We took in what we could, for as little riding time as there was. And we were rewarded mightily. Thanks guys for coming out.
We have a really good bunch of riders!

I debated bringing mine too, being that it was so stinking hot tonight. It wasn't as bad as I thought though. And once we got rolling the heat wasn't an issue.
That was an excellent lap. When I pulled out I only had to pass one car and the second pulled off for me. Had a clear run from VC all the way to the bottom of Geiger. Unheard of! The only near hiccup was the cop right after I pulled out. I was hanging off the bike in a turn and he flashed his lights at me. I looked down and was only doing 44mph.. I think that's a 45 zone right? Anyway he didn't stop so I promptly forgot about him and off I went. Was thinking you guys would catch up but when I got to the bottom was getting dark do just continued on home.

I really enjoy riding with all you guys and gals. I have learned a lot.
Not a good night for being outdoors. Blech!
Its that time again! We are planning to be at PJs Wed about 6:00 to grab dinner and hang out. Hope to see some of you down there.
I will try to make it down there for a little bit
That's funny, GM and I were just talking about it yesterday about when they start back up at PJ's.
I'll see if I can stroll down for a little but I'm not too sure yet.
I'm still hoping we will have some of that traditional Reno weather and tomorrow will be back to sunny and warm!
If not, don't expect RG to show.
RG is coming, with wifey...........
Looks like I'm home in time to make it, see you guys there.
Looking like a nice evening for a ride. See everyone down there.
Don't wait up for me. I'll get there as soon as I can. Not even home yet.
Hurry up GM. Jk. I'm not even there yet either. I'm working on getting there I hope
:rant
Damn it 288! Your post added another page to this bloody thread. Now RG's going to have to start over on page one and read the other six pages just to get here again.
:cuckoo
no shit...........

I'm not Rich but this may help.
Set your settings to show the most recent post on top.
Click on "Profile" on the top green menu bar
Click on "Look and Layout Preferences" in the left column middle under "Modify Profile"
Check the second to last box that says "Show most recent posts at the top".
Then click the "Change Profile" button on the bottom right to save the new settings.
With these settings when you click on a category, for instance, "General Discussion" the newest post will be a the top. Same thing when you click on a specific post such as "Bike Night at PJ & Co" the newest post will now be at the top. There is also a blue "new" icon that appears for posts you haven't read yet so you know when there are new posts without having to check on every topic.
Hope this helps some, Rich can chime in if he has some more tricks.
RG. Instead of clicking on the thread to open it click on the icon at the far right for that thread. If you hover your mouse over it it should say "last post". It will takes you to the last post, nice for posts that are multiple pages. I just freed up 45 min of your day!
I haven't tried what SL suggested but that is another option.
thx
Anyone headed to bike night tonight? If so I'll stroll over otherwise I probably won't bother.
SL,
Thank goodness for you. You're the only one on here with any sense.
:drinking
Brrrr. 50* and dropping. I have some other chores to attend to tonight.
I changed my mind. Not going.
Who's going tonight.
Tonight would be a nice night for chewing the fat. The earliest I could get there would be about 6:30 PM. I have some work stuff still pending and I have to run home to change.
I won't be here long. Only till a bit before 7. Have some things to take care of tonight
Good turnout and really nice weather for a simple ride. Ended up buzzing the spaghetti bowl afterwards, taking the long route home.
Oh how I hate riding in town. :o
Bike night??
I'm down to head over for a beer.
I just passed by on my way home, saw Reno Motorsports has a tent up thought I'd see what they have going on.
Sounds good I'll. Head down for a bit.
Nose to the grindstone. Thought about going down tonight, but I want to get the pictures from our trip up.
I couldn't go last week, but it should be ideal conditions for hanging out in the evening weather as the air cools a bit. I plan on going Wednesday.
Sweet. About time GM. I'll try to sneak down there as well
I'll stroll on over, see you guys there.
Turning out to be a nice day, considering making my way over to PJ's later today, probably would be a good turnout.
Anyone going today?
Just passed by PJ's on my way home, bikes are starting to roll in.
Anyone feel like going? If so I'll show up for a bit.
I thought about it, driving down that is. But I had a full night of work. Burned out now. :-\
Dont think anyone will find this thread here, but here it goes just in case. Weather is to nice not to go to PJ's tonight. Headed down 6:30ish.
Probably a good idea for a new thread anway that's not 8 pages long. I know about the link to the last post but 8 pages!
Damn! I had to scroll through 7 pages of posts to find yours. :tard
Good idea Rich. I'll see you down there.
That's funny I was thinking of PJ's and looking for this thread the other day but didn't find it.
I have to be somewhere at 7pm but I'll stop by at 6:30 for a half hour on my way.
We'll see you guys down there, will try to make it a little earlier.
Good idea Rich.
Sorry to those of you who showed up after dark. I didn't take my telephone with me, so when everyone was leaving after dusk, so did I. No idea what hour it was at the time. Normally I ride home through town, but tonight I thought I'd change it up a little and watch the Rich/Mon rivalry. Damn! They're even competitive with me and I was just there to observe.
:drama
That was a lot of fun. Enjoyed seeing everyone and hanging out. I think we stopped at every red light on Wells so it felt good to finally get going on the hwy :D
Good to stop by for a bit, wish I could have stayed longer, next week if the weather holds up...
What time did you guys end up leaving? I thought I saw Monica's bike still there on my way home a little before 9pm, I almost stopped again but I didn't see Rich's bike behind it so I thought maybe it was someone else's Triple.
If you had, you would have bumped into Dragon, who must have arrived as we were leaving. We missed each other when we departed just after dark; ~8:15.
I gotta try to make it some time. Never even been to PJs.
Weather is great today, anyone heading over to PJ's this afternoon/evening?
I'm planning on it. I'll say 6:30, but I should be down there by 6:00. Don't see anything preventing it.
I may have jinxed myself by utter that. :ohno
Cool, I'll be heading over 6ish
See you down there..
Good times guys, gotta work on our burnouts before next week though... :o
I did one better, I was instigated into drag racing a Mustang over the Wells Avenue bridge. This thing was bombed out; blown out rear window, young kid driver with what looked like his kid brother in the passenger seat, loud headers and stinky. What fun!
Not really. I was being instigated by that Mustang, but I ignored him. We hit the stoplight on the other side and I motioned to roll in front of him to join Rich and Monica at the light. He waved me through, but forgot to hold the brake, so I had to stutter roll in. Then the whole time he was revving his motor like he was readying for a drag race, with the three of us feet from his bumper. Thankfully when the light changed, he didn't gun it and kill us all in the process.
That whole element is what turns me off about owning a sportbike. I'd just as soon take up fly fishing.

You seemed to be enjoying your sportbike once we got to the on ramp!
The HD show tonight was very impressive, if I was like 12 yrs old.
It was an experiment to see how my old tired carburetted bike stacked up against a new fuel injected bike with quick shift.
The new bike was impressive for a 675cc. No doubt. So too for the 919. 8)
Depending on when the rain rolls into town, I'm thinking strongly of going on Wednesday. I might have to head out early though, depending on other obligations. But I thought I'd post that at least.
I've got to cut out by 6:45 but if you and anyone else go early I'll stop by for a bit.
That'll probably be my schedule too, so works perfect for me.
Cool, I'm good anytime after 5pm. Let me know when you're heading over and I'll see you there.
Waiting to see what the weather is like before I decide.
:-\ It's not looking good, even for 7 O'clock. 34% of T-storms.
Looks like the w/e forecast got tons worse too.
Oh well, time to TCB on other fronts so I'll have more time to play after the weather clears.
yeah, not looking good. I'm skipping pj's today and don't plan on riding this weekend anyway, had enough last weekend.
Nice night for bike night, but I won't be able to make it. :P Don't go drinking all my beer. Save me some for next week.
Nice night for bike night. I'll be there sometime, give or take around 6:00 PM.
Weather is looking good, I can't make it this week though.
SL, my phone was dead, charging at home. Laura and I were the only two from our local group, but she was with her friends. I probably left there about the time you called.
No worries, I just stayed home and worked on the bike. Had to remove the rear swing arm to get the chain unstuck. Looking at parts at the moment, with RM's quick shipping I may be up and running by the weekend unless there is further damage that is not visible.
I plan on being at Bike Night Wednesday.
See how that works RG? ;)
I'll probably show up for a bit.
Good! :cheers
I'm betting that RG won't show up now that we've said "Hey everyone, we'll definitely be there."
And for RG :pieface
A good night to come out and enjoy a beer with bikes.
See any of you out there. I'll be on the green bike. ;D
I'll probably stop by. I'm actually getting my prep work done quicker than expected for once, might as well celebrate with a beer. :cheers
Cool!
I'm heading down there now.
Riding. So by 5:30 PM.
COME ON DOWN!!! :band

Planning to go this Wed should be there 6ish.

Anyone heading over tonight? Just have to give the bike a bath, then head over. Hoping to be there a little after 6 PM.
Vegasrider, Laura and Scott were there tonight. Not too rowdy of a crowd either. At least no burnouts in the parking lot.
Vr showed off a video of him doing an obstacle course on his Ducati. The guy's good! :bowdown
Nice seeing so many familiar faces. Temps were worse at 5. By 6:30, when I got there, the evening breeze was all that was needed. Good times!
Should be a good night for milling around bikes. Gonna try to be over there by 6:00 tonight. Look for the green bike. ;D
Strike that. Don't want to get rained on. Watch, now it won't.
Should be ideal weather for hanging out tonight. Be there by 6PM.

Gonna head down tonight to see my peeps. S/B there by around 6 PM, hopefully before so I can enjoy a beer.
I'll cruise over, i could use a change of pace
After you went to close out, Laura came by to chat for a bit. I slow put-on my gear and turned on the electronics. Then warmed the engine for about 5 minutes. Still no sign of you, so I headed out. Did you get their number?

:headscratch Numbers..? :dunno I just paid my tab and left.
Was I still there when you walked away?
You know, girly digits, her phone number. :P
I don't know, I figured you had left. I headed out the other way, didn't notice if you were there or not. I guess if you stuck around to talk to Laura you probably were, it only took me a minute to close out.
Got other plans tonight, so won't be out for Bike Night tonight. Probably next week though.
Last week's weather was perfect for staying out late, talking bikes.
It'll be chilly tonight, maybe too chilly for a beer, but I'm thinking of heading over tonight. Post up if you're going too.
S/B around 6:00 PM give or take.
I may make an appearance, but probably won't stick around too long.
Ha! First one in 2017 to say I'm going to be there tonight.
Weather is fairly decent and last week saw a lot of new faces, especially young women coming out. You could almost make the argument that the #1 new demographic in motorcycles are women sportbike riders.
S/b there by 5:45 PM. Happy hour ends at 6:00 PM.
I'll stop by for a bit. See you there.
Same plan for tonight as last week.
Warmest weather since February. Should be a nice night to look at chrome and rubber. S/B there around 5:45.

:headscratch Change your setting.
Mine shows last post first, I don't have to scroll through anything.
Dam these long threads >:( Good we were able to represent the non HD crowd last night, what an impressive group! Anyone do the around the world ride afterward? :crazy
Had to satisfy myself with a burnout in the parking lot before I left. That was cool!

You would have been cooler if you had been blaring shitty music on shitty speakers while doing your burnout.
I'm planning on going down to bike night tonight if anyone's interested in watching riders do parking lot burnouts or blasting their distorted cheap radios.
Gonna try to be there 5:30 - 5:45 PM-ish.
Was planning on being there at 7 but I'll come a little early to hang out a bit, that'll give me time to drink an extra beer. :evil1
:cheers
Thinking mid-80s around the time I get over there on Wednesday should be perfect! I'll have the bike outfitted with its new license plate backer.
IBA i bet.lol
We'll stop by tonight, 6:30ish. Check out your new plate holder. Havent been on the bike for over three weeks so looking forward to it.
I'll stop by for a bit.
Rich, if you remember bring the Mammoth maps. I'm anxious to see them and our next trip routes... :2cool

I've had it in the car all week but no time to stop by. I will bring it with me tonight.
RG will be there, but didn't specify when. I'll be there by 5:30 and staying long enough to visit with the 6:30 PM folks, before heading over to Dragon's for weekend trip planning.
Anyone planning on heading down tonight?

I will be and so will mtm1337. What time is the usually meetup?
I'll be there. It'll be hot, but usually cools off enough so it's not too bad.
For you newbs, so you know what to expect, PJ's bike night is for all general motorcycle enthusiasts. Happy hour is before 6 PM, so SSA members usually tend to stream in after 5:30. There isn't a fixed time.
If you want to find me, find my big green Ninja. There will be no other like it.
Turned out, for once, mine wasn't the biggest green Ninja there last night. What a coincidence! >:(
Saw RG there, but no other regular sport riders. It could have been that they saw Reno PD had sent down one of their MC officers to do PR, but from what I saw, he was a hit and didn't bat an eye when one rider rode in without a helmet on and another wheelied in front of everyone down the street.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it. I'll shoot for next time!
Looks like more SSA riders will be there tonight.
Why not! I'm roll down again tonight too. ~5:30 PM
If you consider 3 a lot. VR, GM & Pappa
Some newbs said they might come down too.
Boy, that was nice of Papa to buy dinner for you and I, Vr, over at the Chicago place.
If I'm able to make it down tonight, it'll be after 6:30.
Anybody going?
Sounds like Vr and I will be there Wednesday. He'll be on the red Ducati Multistrada and I'll be on my usual bike.
Heading over. S/b there by 5:30 if anybody is interested. I'll have used sliders for those interested. I'll pack 2 sets.
If the weather cooperates and T-Storms are not a threat will go down tonight 6ish.
Yea, N Tahoe and Truckee have had numerous severe storms last few weeks.
Weather activity is increasing around Reno as well so will wait for a better night to go.

Not sure how I changed your msg, was trying to quote.
Anyway, cancelling tonight
I kind of figured the weather would play into last night's get together. By about 4:30 I was south of the airport and it was rolling in again. Cool to watch, but does put a damper on any thoughts of trying to ride with storm cells all around.
It should be a good night for seeing if there are any newbs in the area this year.
Should be down there after 5:00 PM tonight.

You going fishing for squids?
:squidly
I had forgotten all about it until the Mrs mentioned it earlier. Perfect evening, just a long day so catching up with a glass of whiskey at home.

Not if I have to ride McCarren as something they'd call a curvy road. :laughing
Decent turn out. Not overflowing as of yet, but one of the regulars brought down his H2. What a beautiful bike! Some new faces and a lot more women riders than I've ever seen in one place.
No sooner had the guy parked his shiny H2 than an old drunk on a scooter about dumped his bike over onto it. He appeared out of control and almost ran me over in the parking lot just before that. I thought he was joking. Easily the most expensive bike in the lot next to the least expensive toy. Yeah, I think I'll park right here. :drinking One rider inserted himself between the two bikes just in case the drunk attempted another fallover.
Rich, it would have been a nice night for it. It's already getting hot. Almost too hot to stand around in a blacktop parking lot.
@GreenMachine,
The H2 was mine. The guy with the scooter was my friends brother who is just a bit strange to say the least, and just got the scooter the day before.
As for the H2, all I can say is damn! The thing is hairy. Every detail is sorted out on this thing.
:D We may have met somewhere before or it's that you are, like me, one of the PJ bike night regulars. I'll introduce myself next time. I'm also acquainted with Kay/Kai (sp?). He's friends with several of the other SSA legends and have seen him here and there too. He's another legend as I think you have been referred to by some on here too.
Hope to see the H2 more this season. What a great addition to bike night!
See you sometime out there again. Maybe Wednesday evening. I'm probably going to head down there. The weather's looking nice for it.
Actually I was one of the original SSA members. Zorin and I would take off and do our own thing for most of the rides.
I used to work with Kay, we have been friends for 30 years, and have been riding together since way back then. Actually Kay stopped the scooter from falling on my bike. Dragon, and I go way back as well, we knew each other from roller skating. That is one personable guy.
I need to change my riding a bit and start going with other people.
That being said, I am having to relearn how to ride. The power on that thing goes exponential and it takes time to get used to it. Never have I felt anything like that. The magazines can't describe it, hard to put into words.
It'll be close to 6:00 before I can get down there, if anybody was looking for company. I'm going to choke down some dinner real quick, then head over. Probably hang for another hour or so.
What a fun evening, made all the more colorful by Wade68 who came out on his new/used Honda Shadow. I'm not into those kinds of bikes, but damn, it's a charmer!
Ted brought down his gorgeous H2 and some other guy showed up on his H2R. Very busy tonight. They had a charity auction for a rider. A good night to keep the jacket on however.
