TdubLady 1 Posted July 19, 2015 I guess I'll get this one started. I had a lovely ride up with Bikeslut and Weirider. Other than the fact that the rabbit done died. But that's Ken's fault entirely. Then there's having the truck keys on the front seat with the doors locked and the entry combo temporarily forgotten.(snicker) I know you're flipping me off right now, Bob. PLUS Nothing like a tire change right off the bat: Especially when everyone helps: More random pix: The rest will have to fill in ride details; I stayed at the play area for some MUCH needed practice. I made a new friend, I think he'll join the group. He already has a handle-meet OneBoot: And here we have Bikeslut on my bike going up: https://youtu.be/7-HACest6Z4 And going down(note the valiant stoppie attempts): https://youtu.be/ACv7GM5wLuk Finishing it all with a bike(and George) cleansing ride home in the rain: Thanks again for the ride Bikeslut! You really DO rock! Was great to see, meet, and share a laugh with everyone! Still can't believe y'all found that phone!! Let's go again SOON!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bp619 108 Posted July 19, 2015 Was fun ride with the faster group until Ken brake checked me for tailing him as we came up to a super soft corner ( just kidding ken) I slammed on my brakes in a whoop and launched me face first into a soft laNing with a crazy rash on my forhead. Was fun though and George rocked his 990 the whole time never missed a beat, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken S 164 Posted July 20, 2015 Sorry about the brake check. I need a mirror so I can see the crashes behind me. All I saw today was boobies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Suspenders 43 Posted July 20, 2015 Thank you Ken for not taking me on any black diamond trails while on the 990. I know the guys were capable of some more intense terrain so I thank you all for a Great ride! When I got home the bike was clean, my boots were clean. Heck I think even my underwear are clean, maybe I will just put them back into the drawer. Shower? Already had one thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TexasDualler 32 Posted July 20, 2015 Thanks duders for the great ride. I had fun trying to keep up with the faster but not fastest group. Only took one picture but shot some video on the GoPro that'll try to get up later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wcgiv 0 Posted July 20, 2015 Thanks for the awesome ride, Super fun out there can't wait to hit those trails again. Glad to meet all of you. Next time I will be camping then riding early so I don't have to ride all that pavement to get there and back in one day. Bill was riding the dr650 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bp619 108 Posted July 20, 2015 Nope was a couple foot slide on my forehead, I don't know if it was from the helmet or my face shoved in the sand sliding. It was my first ride wearing my upper body armor suit thing I got off amazon for $35 was skeptical about it but I'm sold now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TexasDualler 32 Posted July 20, 2015 The upper body armor things are it. Definety saved me a time or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken S 164 Posted July 20, 2015 Note to all from me after learning the hard way. BUY GOOD BOOTS They start at about $350 but are worth it? What's 2-4 weeks off work cost us plus the doctor bill if your not insured? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chad 0 Posted July 20, 2015 I had a great time today! Always great to put SDAR handles to faces and ride with new folks.... Bp619 did quite the cartwheel-esque dismount! Popped up like nothing happened... Pretty impressive! Good to ride with TexasDualler, Bp619 and Suspenders. Kenny, thanks for leading the "slow" group. Also enjoyed the after ride hang out at the oak tree with the rest of the group. See ya'all out there again soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted July 20, 2015 My group was like greased lightning...we were just keeping a dust-free experience from the rude boys...we KNEW which way you went, which is why we went the other way...duh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meatmord 0 Posted July 20, 2015 Had a great time. Special thanks to Slut, Axel, and another guy whose name I forgot for helping me retrace back to the lost phone. Turns out it fell out of my tank bag coming down that first hill climb we did early in the day. When we went looking for it Axel rode right past it and I rode right over it. It looks meaner now. see y'all next time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
