bikeslut 1 Posted November 8, 2015 Another good group ride. Some vets along to help the n00bs, and some found the limits of skill and bikes. We mostly emerged unscathed...one bike may have been scathed...I don't have pics or video, but I saw a few devices...post 'em if you got 'em Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wierdrider 187 Posted November 8, 2015 Just got home, fun ride. I came back unscathed. Thanks to all that joined, and to Paul for putting this ride together. It is extremely gracious of you to offer to pay for any parts that broke on this ride. trim.0AB14425-95AF-4B4F-974D-6C9FF66F229F.MOV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulmbowers 236 Posted November 8, 2015 It is extremely gracious of you to offer to pay for any parts that broke on this ride. I though is was awfully generous of Bob. Just PM him with the list of items (good time to upgrade!) and he'll take care of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TdubLady 1 Posted November 8, 2015 Sure is nice having a truck. And help loading/unloading!! And a Thumper pal to keep you company. I returned with only minor emotional scratches. Nothing that a set of brand new tires won't fix, tho! Thanks again, Carguy, but thank you even more for bringing your wife!! It was awesome to not be the only girl-she was awesome. I enjoyed that area very much with the exception of option #2-which I am not determined to go back and conquer, dammit!! Option #1 will not be attempted with drum brakes. It's just a hill: I didn't get the launch, but you can certainly see where the landing went sour(sorry WmDaniel): Really glad you're okay!! And FULL credit-it was SPECTACULAR to watch!!! Look how carefully the boxes were brought down-what a team!! He rode it home, by golly! What did folks do before zipties???!!?? You know a hill is steep when Bikeslut drags a foot!! And THEN there was option #3. Links to the videos below. Now, you might see these and at first believe the water is the hazard here. Alas, no, it's the photographers; creating a new biker game called Splish, Splash, I Soak Your Ass. Fun game! https://youtu.be/c75RP3mAmPA https://youtu.be/EiSzrB2dO_Q I only went through water once but somehow till had a mess of mud clumps everywhere-I was a proud mama!! Thanks again, everyone for a great time! Let's do another Noob ride soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThumperBob 21 Posted November 8, 2015 Great fun everyone. Thanks for letting me tag along on my old gal. We need more great videos!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted November 8, 2015 "Dragging a foot" is not something I do...like almost never. But 40 psi on street tires, called for another contact patch. Tires were taking turns breaking traction. On my DRZ, I can usually stop on that hill...no such luck today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted November 8, 2015 I did get a verbal ok to release the carnage video. We (well he...I just was there in case he needed help; he didn't)got him to a trailer he has stashed, and he confirmed he made it home safely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted November 8, 2015 Actually...i'm not even dragging a foot in the pic...how do I edit a post? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TdubLady 1 Posted November 8, 2015 Actually...i'm not even dragging a foot in the pic...how do I edit a post?I posted/deleted the wrong pic. But I know. And you know I always watch you and Paul and Thumper to see how to do things. My reasoning remains firm: If the SuperSlut ain't lovin' it, I ain't even tryin' it!!

DesmoStucky 0 Posted November 9, 2015 Thanks to all for a fun ride. I was able to meet a few of you, but look forward to meeting more on future rides. I'm definitely now itching to ditch my upcoming Wednesday commitments, and join you all at the track. Oh, and thanks to Weirrider for taking a few of us over the mountain towards the end of the main ride. Good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted November 12, 2015 Weak. Not even one SDAR solute picture. plenty of salutes... not many cameras speaking of which... where is the video under the bridge? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThumperBob 21 Posted November 12, 2015 WE WANT TO SEE THE VIDEO!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daufcguy 0 Posted November 12, 2015 hahaha, I don't blame you, I watched the vid at least 20 times, that crash was AWESOME!!! unfortunately for you guys, I have turned the video over to wmdaniel, if you want to see it, you'll have to petition him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted November 12, 2015 that, sir, is a violation of every video protocol we have on this site... I suggested wmdenial starts a "Go Fund Me" page, and once he hits the necessary replacement costs, he can free up the video for our vicarious thrills Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThumperBob 21 Posted November 12, 2015 NO. We have to see the video at least once! Come on Daniel. Post the vid! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThumperBob 21 Posted November 13, 2015 All kidding aside, Daniel. I hope you are ok and your bike can be repaired very quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
