2007 Michigan GS500 Meet & Group Ride

[RedShift]

No worries.  I still want to do the Leelanau Loop.  That's in your back yard.  Best done when the weather is better -- winds off Lake Michigan can be rather cold even if the air & sun are warm elsewhere.

Stay tuned.

[vantec6040]

we have to plan another one for this year!

Alright, but the next ride is going to be set around a date you set. lol

I've also come to the conclusion that i'm a complete idiot. I was just looking through all my old maps and realized that I've been in the Belding area before.  . . . .  but seeing how I dont even remember being there, I sure know I wont be of any use to us trying to find our way around town.

This should be fun.

Just to be clear this has nothing to do with the locaton, simply the fact that something came up thats not optional.  But Lets start thinking about the second one when you guys get back!  Have fun, wish I was going!

[denman]

i e-mailed the track 10.00 to get in,i can buy gas for riding with ten bucks.

[RedShift]

It goes to a good cause, and it's not like I visit often -- okay, I'm still in.

[vantec6040]

I'm still in too. Even if its only me and you RedShift lol. $10.00 is nothing compared to the $140.00 I just spent on gear for this ride . . . 

Looking at the weather forecast, it seems like its going to be getting a little nicer. So i'm definitely stoked,
but if the majority is starting to oppose the area of Grattan, we could always just push this into May with a Leelanau weekend trip. Will be warmer for sure (maybe) . . . . and we can all get drunk and crash at Darbs house! 

[darb85]

works for me!

[flyingbeagle71]

Hey all, it's been awhile since I've been on.  Gratton sounds like a fun trip, I'd be wouldn't mind joining you all if the ride still on.  I'd be interested in the Leelanau trip too...  Great choices for rides.

[denman]

hey there flyingbeagle,good to hear from ya.   hey man is your bike naked now.    hey im still in, i cant miss seeing all the GS's all in ome spot.

[RedShift]

Hey Beagle!! (Gregg??)  Glad to see you're still around, and that we have another repeat rider.  You're welcome regardless of what you're riding. 

Wish for warm weather.  See you in two weeks.   

[flyingbeagle71]

hey there flyingbeagle,good to hear from ya.   hey man is your bike naked now.    hey im still in, i cant miss seeing all the GS's all in ome spot.

Yep, the bike is now naked  ...I've got a little work to do this weekend to finish up the engine rebuild, I've put Racetechs in the front and I've got a SV shock for the back...Should be all ready in a couple weeks, though I'll still be breaking in the new rings, so no fast stuff for me...

Yep, it's Gregg...I haven't been on the site much lately.  Started a new position at work in August and have been slammed every since...  Hopefully the weather gets better, getting sick of this winter stuff...see ya at Gratton!!!

[denman]

cool the old gang meets the new gang.   

[vantec6040]

 

9 days.

List (including names I know):

RedShift
vantec6040 (Jeremiah)
denman
manofthefield
flyingbeagle71 (Gregg)

Meeting at 11AM still a go for everyone?

Edit: Forecast says rain . . . 

[denman]

we dont need no stinking rain.

[RedShift]

Regardless of what weather forcasting technology that's out there, I figure nobody knows the forecast 10-days out.  Two or three days, yeah good chance to be right -- 10 days, bloddy unlikely.

Think thoughts of good weather, especially those in the GR area. 

[vantec6040]

Yeah, their forecast are always wrong anyway.  Just thought that would be some nice icing on the cake lol


Edit: 60% chance of rain turned to 10% and partly sunny since yesterday. lol

[denman]

i like partley sunny to extra hot.

[darb85]

Really wish I was going with you guys,  went for my first ride today and man what a blast.  Have fun and well have to do another one sometime this summer!

[flyingbeagle71]

We still on for Sat???  Weather forcast is looking good.  I kinda bought a new bike, but would still like to show up if it's not raining...not sure about riding the new bike in the rain just yet, still getting used to it...
