since spring is around the corner who all rides here and what type of riding do you do?

i try to head down WVA/ohio whenever possible. its usually a 300 to 400 mile ride. redline has been on it before and can state its a good ride.

so whoever is interested lets now get a heads up on who rides and can actually take off a whole sat or sunday and do semi long ride. so we know in advance

I may not be able to keep up with sportbikes but i would be interested.  
Sundays are usually better for me to take off

I work a swing shift so my days off vary. I can have off during the week or weekend depending on the schedule.

I have done short loops just to go grab a nice lunch up in like Foxboro and then take an alternate route back, to doing western routes to punxy with groups.

I prefer a moderate pace, with common sense intact. I have only had one interesting experience which I made it though and had a good time but after I got home, I shook my head and couldn’t believe I did it…

I have no problem riding faster and then playing catch up. Its when we are doing a constant 140 and crossing double yellows that gives me a pucker facter especially when I have no clue where I’m at. :eek:

on these roads you cant do those speeds. fastest I exited some of the bends were 105 also i dont like to pass cars unless my group can pass safely. and i also dont speed on the straights to many cops on them. no where for a cop to hide in the turns
