time has come to start thinking about this ride for 2012.

currently looking at 08.05 or 08.19.
wanna do the 19th but if its lookin nice the 5th i might go with that rather than risk not doing the ride this year.
leaning hard toward trucking the drz to the casino but i think a meet spot in kirkland needs to happen for the ride to work.

coasting races will happen this year.
plummy needs to get her epidural ready now.
unless your name is guff everyone on this board is invite.
if inspector comes & rides from kirkland on his wr i will man up & ride the drz. probably

anyway if anyone wants to toss their $.02 in before i officially post a ride feel free. if i enough ecc kids commit maybe i will pull an mjn and do the ride then post about it on pnwr after the fact.

100% in for 08/05 unless my wife does something stupid and goes into labor before then

50% in for the 19th unless my wife does something stupid like says no due to being on defcon 5 for labor stuff and pending baby

Good call on the mjn idear.

Will ride KTM if you promise to stop for gas often and ride the drz.

Artist Point opens up today. Looking forward to maybe an energy drink riding competition the last couple miles up to the top.

I don't see how trucking your DRZ up is going to prevent you from meeting in Kirkland, it's not like the ride up to the casino is done at some ridiculous speeds, you'd arrive maybe 10 minutes after the group...and already be fully fueled and warm and all that.

Edit: However, if you do truck the DRZ up it may make you feel obligated to be the safety truck on the way home if someone can't negotiate a decreasing radius corner...

I'm pretty sure I've watched you fall down a couple times than and I've never seen her dump a bike.

Everyone here has seen me dump a bike at some point...probably the same DRZ every time. Hell I dumped it on you. And had to truck it home because I failed to negotiate a static radius parking lot.

Let it go already.

you are failing to recognize that we've been making jokes about chris for at least a year based on this thread alone. why because you been banging her a few months should we suddenly change our opinions of her and stop making jokes? if anything you need get over it and own what you're fucking rather than try to get every sarcastic motherfucker you know to stop being who they are.

proof of my point.

fwiw i think it would be fabulous if you both make this ride. i've always got a kick out of chris as i've said before and have no plans of shitting on your little party. can't speak for anyone else naturally but agian you need to start owning your choises for fuck sake.

I stand corrected on the race dates. I was other plans around the 4-5 dates but not because of OMRRA.

Carry on.

but when everyone leaves me in their dust, i'll be the one getting pulled over and receiving an award trying to keep up with you guys... which is really rude to do with a new rider. is that how all your group rides function?

I could ride sweep, you would then feel like you "won" the ride by beating someone else. I promise not to stare at your ass. I can't crash, I have to keep June's bike shiny.

If you were riding sweep, how would I have seen you blow that turn and tippy toe the bike around to get it back on the road?
