GTG this weekend??

[evil jose]

It's a long weekend and I was wondering if anyone wants to get together somewhere and ride and/or hangout. My time is sorta limited but I'll be free Saturday afternoon from 1-2 to about 6pm and Sunday in the morning and late afternoon/evening. Monday pretty much all day until about 5pm when I have to get ready to head to Boston.

I'm pretty much still a novice and want to some group riding with a slow paced group and some BS'ing around talking about riding and stuff in general. Post up!

[FastFord19]

I wont be able to make it this weekend because i'll be working since its labor day weekend but I will go to a gtg for sure sometime

[Swamp Donkey]

I live about an hour from Dallas area but would love to meet up somewhere. I am free Sat. afternoon also. Sounds like fun.

Don't matter to me. I am up for anything/anywhere, I just love to ride!

[tphan]

Begining Noon this Saturday until next Saturday I will be a free man...old lady is visiting her mommy 2000 miles away.

Let's see...I will need a case of Cognac, box of cigar, XXX dvds, The Club House, did I leave out anything....

LET'S PARTY!

[Big_Boze]

Well lets meet up and ride all afternoon then go get f*ed up afterwards =D

[2Blue4Good]

Im down!!! When and where???

[evil jose]

Let's figure out a day to meet up first. Personally, late Sunday afternoon works for me. Hopefully JC can get some riding gear and tag along or do it someplace close for him to hang out with.

[staticX]

I usually get off work around 2 pm on sats...wouldn't mind a ride, might be able to make it.....where do you guys metup?

[72Comet]

Late Sat. after 5 would work for me. How about Sonic on NWHWY & Jup.

[quicstang99]

ill ride... i got some buddies that will ride.. just post up friday or so and letting us know when and where to meet up...

[Swamp Donkey]

Yeah we need to figure out what day for sure. I am open both Sat and Sun afternoon. Let's do this!

[evil jose]

How about we do this. Let's get together late Sunday afternoon (around 6pm or so) and do some riding around Joe Pool Lake. It's close enough to JC that I think he'll go and not feel to uncomfortable about having to ride way out. What do you guys think?

[Swamp Donkey]

That's fine with me but where do we meet?

[evil jose]

There is a Sonic on Great Southwest Parkway just south of I-20 we can meet at. We can do some riding around the lake and 360 south of I-20 has some fairly tame curves and little traffic.

[staticX]

ehh I won't be able to make a late sunday ride....usually saturdays and early sundays are easiest.

[Last5oh]

wish i could but im at college and wont be back in the dfw area til break

[BottleRocket]

dammit, i hate when this happens. I think im gonna call in on sunday.

[Monsoon X]

Sun. afternoon is perfect. What time? I also think the area you mapped out is great.

[evil jose]

I'm out I jacked up my wrist last night and it's hurting like a mother right now

[Thurston]

jose we need to plan something a few weeks on even a month ahead of time. that way it gives everyone some time to get things together. the place is no factor to me.

Rub that tussin in there. Let that tussin soak in. Out of tussin? Put some water in the bottle and shake it up LOL!

[Monsoon X]

R we riding or not?

[evil jose]

The Sunday Afternoon Ride went well. Got off to a late start at almost 7pm and we only got in an hour and only 30 miles or so but I enjoyed it. Meet up with Adam (OneBadWagon) in his brand new R1 and rode over to JC's (MonsoonX) house for some riding around Joe Pool Lake.

[evil jose]

Check out how much "trunk" space Adam has on his R1.

[evil jose]

And pulled over at a gas station for a cold drink and a smoke break for me. We would have rode a little longer but JC only had a tinted shield and that doesn't work to well for night riding LOL!

[staticX]

Damn was looking for a ride yesterday....seemed like nothing was going on. Oh well...if you guys ride again email me at vexin12@comcast.net and let me know where you guys are going

[evil jose]

Shoot me a PM with your name and phone number to so I can easily reach you. Also let me know what part of town you are in. Probably shooting for another GTG on the weekend of the 18'th-19'th.

Jose, it doesn't matter to me, but that is Fun Ford Wekend.

[Monsoon X]

BTW Jose,

NO TANK BAGS ON OUR RIDES ARE ALLOWED. We're trying to look cool, remember? You messed it all up.

[FastFord19]

Where did yall meet at? Just wondering how close so for when the next get together will be.

I'm not certain I'll be making FFW yet or not. To be honest, since I'm not racing I think I'd rather go riding instead on my weekend home

What you talking about Willis?? My tank bag is pimp! Plus I've gotta have something to carry my stuff in (wallet, insurance, map, towel, cigarettes, lighter, flashlight, cell phone, digital camera, extra shirt for those hot days, etc.). Your just jealous

Mostly on the South Side for now since it's closer for me and JC. Where do you live? PM me your contact info, name, location, and bike and I'll add it on list of riders. Also if you have a route in you area that is good for riding post it up and set a date for us to go riding.

[88hatch5_0]

I feel the same way. I am not racing so I would rather go riding as well.

[hypnosis]Very good. Riding is better than watching a ton of Foci race [hypnosis]

if he runs out of room, i have some for a vanity mirror and some mascara

[evil jose]

Bitches! I've got a tank bag not fucking saddlebags! Sometimes I like to carry around a dry shirt, bottle water, and some other junk. I don't like to carry my wallet in my pocket or keys either. I'll be damned if I stuff my camera in the storage compartment or keep it in my jacket.

This is what I have. Mine isn't as bulky because I don't stuff the shit out of it. Comes in handy on a day trip to my parents lake house or riding around all day. Plus it's got back pack straps and I can strap my helmet onto the side.





That's it JC! When we do a long trip and you need someone to carry something for you ask someone else!!!

eBay, $80. Wait until you start making longer rides into the country (group riding or not) and wish you had a bottle of water with you or a towel to wipe off your sweat (I sweat alot in the leather and helmet when it's real warm and I'm not constantly moving). I don't like to keep a lot of junk in my pockets or in the storage compartment either. I've got a backpack now to for weekend trips if I want to bring a change of clothes, etc. We need to do the small roadtrip out to my parents lake house man! 70+ miles one way.

[BottleRocket]

water? thats what a camelback is for. Those things are badass on rides, and they dont look goofy like your tank has a growth on it. You saw what kind of bike that was on right Jose? Maybe you should save up for a Road Star

That's better than a growth on your back? I have no need to get a camelback. I did need something bigger than the storage compartment of my bike. Shesh... I'm glad you guys are so worried about me being fashion concious (although I think wearing a camelback while riding would look stupid).
