Ok i like to switch my starting rides in certain places all the time to get a mix of everyone and make it fair.
Thsi ride we



Meet in Troutdale 450 NW 257Th troutdale at the outlet mall since the parking lot is big. Come filled up.


We will do about a 3hr ride. If you want the route send me a pm. I got a babysitter for my daughter and my ankle will be ready let's try this again
8-31-08 Leave at 10:00 sharp
Quick ride talk at 9:45 off at 10:00 am sharp. Medium to fast pace ride. Ride your own pace you control your own throttle and lines no one else Your responsible for your own actions.
Should be about 120 miles of fun twisties and stuff. Also will end around Lunch time.
I have 2 routes in mind Both will be around 3 to 4 hours of good riding.

I can't. :( White water rafting and camping this weekend. I'm bringing the bike!

Rumblebee

Oh darn !!
Well the following weekend I'm going to post a ride For Saturday, Sunday, Monday it will be 3 days of railing all over.
Hope to catch you out there before the year ends





PS: FOLKS


This ride wont be newbie friendly sorry :( I really need a good ride.
It will be more of a Medium pace i just want to cruise and rail a few corners.

LC4CARL

Put me down as a "maybe". Back-to-back rides demand particular care on the home front.

Badbcky

In that case, put me down as a "hell, yes" for next Sunday and maybe Saturday, too.

Rumblebee

Ok it's on See you there and the roads nice and sunny for the group.
BTW Next week will be medium to faster ride pace also

Rumblebee

Let me know by Friday if you are. I darn sure dont want to go sitting in the parking lot alone lol. If no one is interested i will just hit it up hagg lake or something.

Still early in the week I'm sure someone here can hang

This sounds like a fun filled couple of weekends coming up so Im a pretty much in but stay off the stairs : )

Rumblebee

I don't like the looks of the VTRs normally, but that photo is gorgeous!

marksvfr

I'm down for next week. Gonna be in Sun River this weekend. I'm all about a fast paced Ride.

Rumblebee

Right on we will see you then.

So i got 3 maybes on this Saturday and a crap load for the following Saturday.

So we will see how it plays out this weekend. I dotn care if i ride or not anyway just means i wont get a babysitter lol.

TheFactor

Well then you've got plenty of time to get that particular care on the home front started.

Rumblebee

[quote=TheFactor;1322143] Yea he has a good point there lol. Still 3 more days worth.

kmannth

I will do my best to make this. Been to busy with outdoor house projects, need to free up some time while the weather is nice. As an ex-corbett boy I love the east side.

TheFactor

[quote=Rumblebee;1322312] Sometimes those honey do lists can get rather long so he best get started yesterday : )

LC4CARL

Thanks! I think it's one of my top ten.

TheFactor

I think its a top 11, great pic and btw thanks for my new Avitar .

LC4CARL

Hey! Looking good Ed.

Current thought on my ride schedule: If we are absolutely riding Labor Day weekend, I'll join you then. If it's anything less than 50/50, I'll go this weekend.

Rumblebee

Well then let's just hold on this for the labor day weekend. Let's do it Sunday the weekend of labor day.
There are alot of things going on this weekend and rides all over. So this weekend would have been 50/50 labor day weekend is 100% for Sunday and Monday.

LC4CARL

Works for me.

TheFactor

So im confused lol but I confuse easily. Is there going to be a ride saturday or is it a no go ?

Rumblebee

Well if it was it would have only been me and you lol. Not like that matters i dont care if it was just me. But i think with the uncertain of people and the other many things going on this weekend we will wait until the following weekend and get us about 10 for the ride.
Go out and practice lol.
This just means i dont have to get a babysitter for my daughter Next week she is with her mom so I'm free for that whole weekend myself.
But hey it was fun talking about it lol.

TheFactor

LOL you are so wright it was fun talking about it, I feel almost like I went on a ride . Yes I'LL probably go out and practice. This is my 7 th crotch rocket but I also took about a 7 year layoff from bikes and I couldnt take it anymore, but I kept my endorsement all those years because I knew someday I'D be back in the wind . So this is like my 3rd liter bike and a handful of 600's and 750's But i've learned to ride the twisties all on my own and from riding with others and learning as I go , i've been in cali were i've done most of my riding in Azusa canyon, Ortega and the crest but never on a track And never had any class or any help from a experienced rider I pretty much learned on the fly lol so that being said theres much more for me to learn and I know my limits most of the time . Well now you have a little back ground on me I would put myself in the lower spectrum of a intermediate with a lot to learn . On the streets I'd say im above average lol but the streets and the twisties are to different things and is what separates the men from the boys : )

Buckwheat

Count me in too for Labor Day! I hope it's really really fast though as the traffic should be light on that Holiday. ...Just Kidding... You guys be safe out there damit!

Buckwheat

BTW - that is a particularly exceptional pic of the VTR. At first glance, I thought it was a TL 1000

LC4CARL

Ed's being a bit modest here...

kuruptracing

so tomorrow is a no go?

Rumblebee.... You might want to edit your original post to reflect that the ride has been postponed.
