Thanks for posting those pics Gregg. I didn't even think to bring my camera so I got nothing.

<Alpha> I think the term metrosexual is overused

Just wanted to bump this back to the first page.

Also we should probably try to get a date set pretty quick since it seems to be cooling off pretty fast this year and I'm a total whimp when it comes to cold. Other than this upcoming weekend my schedule is pretty open.

I'd be down for joining up with everyone this time around (had a family gathering for the first one :( ).  I work most saturdays at the dealership, but would be able to request it off real easily.  My new job's been keeping me WAY busy so I haven't been on here in a long while.  Let's just set a date and I'll be there!

I'm not going to be able to make it to a ride this fall...  :cry: :cry: :cry:  My bike is down until next spring.  I got my cylinder head back this weekend, but It's going to take a few months to get all the parts bought to get it back together.  By next spring, I should have a completely rebuilt engine, new front shocks, new Katana rear shock, fairings removed...almost a new bike...
GS500F in BLUE because that's the COOLEST color!

"One possibility:  The Oxford/Metamora/Dryden area is very nice--mostly farmlands surrounded by nice curves and twists and long stretches w/o stop signs or lights."

I live in Metamora! I would really love to get together with some other riders. Too bad I just sold my GS over labor day weekend (lucky girl got a good deal too). Though I should have my new SV by this weekend 8). I'll try to keep track of this thread just in case.

BTW: I'm terrible at planning out routes, so someone with those skills get at it! Its getting bloody cold . . .

I'm in a bit better shape (bike-wise), as my new rear shock and battery are now in and it's rideable and reliable again.  But my availability to help schedule another ride while the weather holds is unlikely.  Next three weekends are spoken for.

But that shouldn't stop others from coming up with a ride.  Next year I'm interested in exploring the Lake Michigan side of the state.

I'd love to go over to the west side of the state (graduated from Western) it's gorgeous over there....I'm still up for a ride this fall....I have the next two weekends open, anyone interested?

I'm in. Thats only if SV's are invited . . .

We could plan on doing a thumb ride, or maybe another Pinckney? I've really been wanting to go up the TOT, but thats probably going to have to wait till spring.

denman

yes SV'S are cool well i like just about any thing on two wheels.    here in muskegon it's nice but it's windy big time today.   i have riden my bike just three times sence that last group ride.   im done for this year,after christmas im geting new tires.   talk later.
every day above ground is a good day.

Sorta OT, but I'm looking for MI advice over here and figured I could get some attention quicker by posting it here: http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=31722.new#new
