A few pics from the weekend group ride.

Tmall · 09-22-2009, 03:58 PM

Let me start off by saying, I barely ever ride in a group. Redrider2k2 asked me to go on one, and I made the 3 hour round trip to join in. Keep in mind the 3 hours had me cover about 240 miles just to get to the starting point. And then we rode for another 4 hours or so.

Anyway, here they are..

Meeting up. Redrider checking out my bike. Can't blame him. It's sexy..

And we're off. Red and his gf are ahead of me, followed by a whole bunch of people I don't know.

Get some of the scenery in..

Shortly after, this idiot almost lost it flying through the road in his hooptie. He was going so fast he didn't even register until he was side and side with me.

The first stop.

Couple on the move shots. Red and his gf behind me.

Our second stop. Have to throw in a gratuitous sexy Buell pic in..

Out of the 9 or 10 bikes. We had 3 04 or 05 zx10s.

Our final stop. We had some food and gassed up the bikes. This is where we parted ways. I went off on my own through backroads back home. Here is Red making fun of me because I couldn't figure out how to clean my visor.. "If only there was a source of water nearby..."

And last but not least, another group of faster riders set out behind us. They never caught up. This is why.

He lost the front end in dirt at 100mph. Walked out of it with a broken collarbone.

That's all folks. I know they're not much, but trying to add some bike content.

You ever see a zx11 next to a blackbird?

I actually felt bad for the guy riding the blackbird. He was behind me for the first half of the ride and my bike is loud as fuck..

Cool pics.

It looks like a well mixed group.

I like seeing the "less than common" bikes (ZX7, ZX11, Bandit, XX, etc.)

Good eye on the Bandit. I was waiting for somebody to pick that up!

RedRider2k2 · 09-22-2009, 09:51 PM

I knew if anyone would spot that, it would be Karl

My friend that owns the ZX11 also owns a 12 and a GSXR1100.

The guy that wrecked was actually on a 95 ZX9.

There was also another guy that went down in that group right around the same time. I dont know what he was riding but I think HE was the one with the broken Collerbone. The guy that went down at a Buck-Sixty walked away with nothing but a bruised Tail Bone

A large section of the road gets really tight and the girls didnt really get any pics from the back. It's usually referred to as the "Little Cabot Trail" but this year it's starting to be called "Little Deals Gap" because someone has wrecked in it on almost a weekly basis. This guy with the ZX9 decided he should start his own Tree of shame....

Another guy who was riding solo came up on the wreck and was a little lost and low on Fuel. The Kawi sacrificed it's final tank of fuel to keep the poor Yamaha going
