I went on a ride with some WMriders.com people.  Met in Holland then road up to some neat roads in the Muskegon area. 

BTW darb, thanks for the PM the other day; I applied.  Also, here's a group that may be in your neck of the woods, though most of the posters so far seem to be farther south than you: http://www.northsidestreetbikes.com/ (http://www.northsidestreetbikes.com/)

There was also a Busa hidden behind the ZX14, a few more gixxers, some CBRs, and a TL-R.  Actually there were a couple others that weren't fully faired... a Monster (800?) and a 955 Tiger.  Always fun being in a group when you have 1/2 or less power than every other bike there :laugh:

Yeah, I was being held up by the ZX14 in the curves, but to be fair she only had a few hundred miles on it :icon_rolleyes:

But seriously, most of them are better riders than me (or just stupid and blindly go faster through corners??).  I think I need to get to a trackday sometime to work on my cornering confidence
