Any of you Ohio folk ride this weekend?

I got out both Sat. & Sun. Nothing official, just ride to and from places, but it still felt really good.

Went out Saturday and ran Rt. 10 in KY. Did a total of 150miles most of em twisties

Had one pucker moment on some loose gravel but was able to save it!

Ran into lots of riders... stopped and talked to a guy on a new 600rr.

New 12 kicks a$$!!! very nice!

He seemed like a smart guy, I don't think so.

How did I miss this thread? Sadly my bike was hybernating in the basement. I think I was in Canadia for a batchelor party anyway.

Holy old thread batman! This ride was back in November. What part of Cleveland you coming to and when? Maybe a few of us can get together for dinner one night.

And, uh, do you happen to be Hungarian?

How'd you get your bike into your basement?

Was it a bumpy ride down the stairs?

lfg929 · 12-18-2003, 9:28 AM

Nope, didn't get out. But the RC is now completely repaired. I filled the tank up last night, added some Stabil, and let it run for a bit to pull it into the system. The first day we get over 40 degrees or so it is going to come out for a spin (I haven't ridden since I crashed the RC on October 11th).

BTW, partridge, only the weak in Ohio actually winterize their bike and put it away for the cold months. Those of us dedicated to riding keep the bike ready for those few days per month that we always get where it is warm enough to ride (with some extra layers on) for a short bit.

Not the weak, but the northerner's. You southern folk get a nice break from winter weather

November? oops. :o

North Olmsted. I am still gettin the old farm truck ready (radiator flush etc.) not written in stone yet, but i thought i'd like to leave sunday after christmas and arrive two days later. in time for the new year, surprise mom. this whole plan can collapse if everything does'nt fall together proper. fingers crossed. i'd be flattered and honored if i could meet y'all while i'm up there!

and yes, German/Hungarian paternal, Ukranian/Polish maternal. i am first-born American. Parents met in Cleveland. Long story..tell it over food, beer.
