Weather looks ok at the moment, Temp in the high 60’s, a bit cloudy, only 10%  
chance of rain.

Route can be whatever you guys want. Lots of options. Maybe  
something short in the capital area, or we can go far to  
Lake George or Sacandaga Lake (or both).

The pace will be relaxed, so anyone regardless of experience  
can come. All motorcycle types are welcome. Cruisers too.

Let me know what you guys think. I’m free all day. Best time  
to ride is probably in the afternoon when its warm.

I’m going to ride no matter what so let me know.

I’ll be riding in the morning Saturday. Spring football season starts then and I’ve got a game at 2:30, but if anyone wants to meet up in the morning fora couple of hours I’ll be out.

Pace will be “relaxed.” Not sure if that makes sense or not. Basically I’ll be riding just like I would if I was riding two-up with my gf on the back.

I’ve lead a few group rides before and I usually end up going too slow lol, so the pace will also depend on who shows up

Weather outlook for Saturday is getting better, mostly sunny 70 degrees, only 10% chance of spotty showers.

For a route I was thinking a mix of Lake George and Sacandaga Lake?

Yeah that was pretty ridiculous

I don’t think my laptop can handle editing 1080p video, but i’ll try

Here’s the video from saturday. This was shot from the front of my bike during the last “lap” we took. I decided not to add music to the vid, but idk maybe I’ll add some later.

My first time editing my own video and putting it on the interwebz :number1 YouTube has a built in “video stabilizer” thingy, so that’s why the frame around the video is moving around (looks kinda weird lol). Also I hate the wide-angle lens on the gopro, it makes the turns look straighter than they actually were, some of these turns were 20mph but they don’t look that tight in the video.

[ame][http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G5ZFbX3B5U[/ame]](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G5ZFbX3B5U%5B/ame%5D)

i’ll honestly never understand how to embed videos…
