I'll be rolling in with the GSXcite crew on Wednesday as well.As my son GSXTacy said, we arrive on Wednesday afternoon. Please don't feel pressured into giving me an answer, we would all like to have you join us if you can. We know if you come, you will want to make it every year. Heck, if you ride your bike back Sat. afternoon, some of us may just ride down that way with you to explore some new roads. What route would you take ?
Gotta know where to sneek em in!STOP IT STOP IT FIRST THE TRAILER THREAD NOW THIS ONE
Hey that's my jacket! I can't recommend it enough. It provides ample protection for an easy fall, breathes very well, and has nice vents and pockets.. even an mp3 player pocket with a headphone slot up near the neck. I love this jacket and never ride without it (except in winter, i go to a heavy duty leather jacket). I ride with some pretty sturdy gloves, with solid plastic thick knuckles. I ride with jeans 90% of the time.. but I know they provide little, if any, protection when falling. I am looking at all the different jeans with kevlar lined patches sewn in, and will probabyl purchase a pair when I get home.I'm sure I'll get flack on this, but I do not wear leather in the summer, I find it too warm. I do however, always wear my Joe Rocket jacket (around $225), with integrated back, shoulder and elbow protection. I find it cooler than leather but still feel protected.
I also always ware my full face helmet, boots and at a minimum, jeans.
Jaddie,Dear HalJaddie, here is a way for it to work. Come up on your busa on Thursday during the day, with your wife following you. Do a couple of the rides Thursday and Friday, and spend some time getting to know everyone at the cookout in the evening. Offset your expenses taking photos of members bikes in the afternoon and evening, (also give you a way to charge off expenses for business travel). Go to the photo shoot at the dam with ALL the members Saturday morning, then head home in the car for your photo shoot and come back after you finish if you want to be there for Sat. night, or follow your wife home on the busa and stay at home after the shoot. I travel 2,000 miles round trip for this event and it is worth every mile I drive. Because of the drive we leave after a short ride on Sunday AM as do most of the members. What ya think about them apples?
I'm thinking about "them apples."
My wife is positive about it, but she wants to see if she can get a substitute teacher for Friday, April 25. Without my wife's coming, I won't have any photo gear with me. But she probably can find a sub.
Rides on Thursday? I thought the Bash didn't begin until Friday.
I might ride up by myself early Thursday and let Becky drive up Thursday night. The background stand, backdrop, clamps, lighting equipment, camera, and lenses would be in her car.
This sounds good to me, but give me until late Monday afternoon to give you a definite answer.
We'd be coming home mid-day Saturday for the late-afternoon prom shoot.
I'm getting more excited as I think about this. I appreciate your suggestion. It's a damned good one!
I bet Becky can find a sub!
Are you going to be there Thursday?
--Jaddie
