Anyone game? The last one was a lot of fun. We will be leaving around 8 from the Wal Mart in Dahlonega. Doing the normal 100 mile-ish route.

Aww, feel the bike love! If you have a normal work schedule its going to be hard to work that out though. I'm off on Mondays and Wednesdays. I'm down!

i'm really thinking about selling the sumo and getting another sportbike. i love the thing but it's not practical for me to ride long distances, and i like a long day in the hills.

Here I go again. Go ride a Buell. They are a lot faster than you would think. I ran a pretty fast guy down last Sunday on a new R6. He would pull me on the straights but the cornering speed of these things is crazy. Just go to a dealer and ride one. If you don't like it, no harm done. Plus you will get a free sling bag for your time(which is really nice and would sell for about $60). And you can never ride enough bikes. It's always good to try as many as possible since they are so different. As far as your bike goes, they are really cool, but I think they are better suited as a second bike, with a tow rig.

Because I don't have an R or a 12 for you to ride. And you ain't gettin my bag! LOL They are really laid back about it. Just hand them your license to copy and you're gone. Ride one or five, they don't care. I'll even go down there with you.

Check out www.buell.com and go to the videos section. Erik explains all the designs and why they are there. It's really pretty cool. How many owners of other companies have videos where they explain everything? Not just tell you what they have but why they have it.

I teach July 17-20 and 27-30. Other than that Mondays and Tuesdays are open. Updates?

Still trying match schedules. I am thinking about a few more weeks. I am waiting for leather and new gloves and Mark will be out of town Mon and Tue of week after next for Moto GP. We'll get it sorted and make a weekday run soon. How's the job?

And anyone know what happened to Carlos/Randy?

Kronus · Post by **Kronus** » Sat Jul 15, 2006 12:17 am

When its not insanely slow, the job is cool. Now, the other job, teaching the BRC, owns. I appreciate the effort being made. When it all works out, it'll rock.

I have no idea what happened to Randy. I've been meaning to see if hes going to make it back to Hville.
