OK Gas, this is my thread and I don't want that Drewpy/Psychochild drama in here. I just wanted to post about my ride. I have met psychochild before on a few rides and she has been nothing but nice to me. I haven't met drewpy but i'm sure I will eventually as he rides in the same group I do. I dont want to get involved in their past.
Jenna, thank you for the energy drinks. They were a big help. I was able to complete 618miles of curves in 11 hours. I had a blast. Got a performance award from a trooper as well but sometimes you have to pay to play. Still feel great and place to ride a few hundred more tomorrow.

sorry you got a ticket, how fast were you going and in what mph zone? or simply stated: What was your citation?

It was only 68 in a 55 so not bad at all. We were running 140mph on many straights so I feel lucky that it was a minor offence. I'll be calling the DA soon and asking for a "civil penalty". I heard you pay a little extra and no points. Sounds good to me. I had a clean driving record till now.

Hokie, do you ride straight for 11 hours and just stop for gas? or are there rest breaks? I don't even want to do that many miles in a car with a radio, pit stops and food, let alone hunched over a sportbike.

What a RIDE!
Hokie did great, and rode the wheels off that bike! We recovered from a 45 delay, and a 100 mile navigation error (both dumb mistakes on my part), and completed it with 7 minutes to spare! Then got it a little 230-mile ride Sunday with our new FJR buddies to cap it all off. If you've never ridden the Ozarks in the N Arkansas hill country, it's beautiful territory with many, many outstanding roads - highly recommended. Now if we can just keep these performance awards off our driving records.... |
