Who Rode Today?

Got out for a spin this morning and although it was bright and sunny at home I rode into a thick fog bank.

I've ridden every day this week......I went out today and was fortunate enough to encounter farmers manure spreading....such a pleasant odor.....

I did happen across a fellow (complete stranger) on a CBR650R (good looking bike) who rode up behind me then alongside me on the right apparently seeing what I was riding....

He and I stopped at a spot where you can over-look the river....he said he has never seen a Hayabusa in real life before...

He mentioned when he was coming up behind me he kind of thought he'd test me but thought better of it...and was really glad once he found out what I was riding....

I laughed and told him he would have easily passed me and I wouldn't have pursued as I am just out enjoying the day....
 
Is he still alive? The current names of some of the groups are really something. Still, it’s hard to beat The Dead Kennedys or my fav, Sandy Duncan’s Eye. :laugh:
Manson looked dead, gave a crappy performance. It was his last and the only memory he left was Im glad you are not the only band here. FFDP however, they were off the freaking chain! Slaughtered to Prevail for death metal was not bad. They sound alot like Cannibal Corpse. The Funeral Portrait was pretty good. Ive never heard them before but I can see them going places. Definatly a Niche group.
 
I got in a fabulous 172 mile loop thru five counties in the Sierra foothills today scrubbing in a new rear tire on the Honda. Spectacular day, blue sky, 80 degrees, a lil breeze and NO traffic! For the first 30-40 miles I thought I was in a Twilight Zone episode because there were no cars, no trucks, nothing was moving. Finally I saw a farm truck pulling a trailer and by the end of the 172 miles I bet I only saw 15 cars/trucks and 3 motorcycles. Was kinda weird but fabulous too! :cool: Stroked the ol Honda up past 100 a few times just because and had a good time testing out the new tire. Mileage now is 38,850 which is 5,160 miles since I got it. It’s ready to go anywhere. How bout it? How bout we all meet up somewhere, Lolo? Topaz Lodge NV? Yellowstone? Glacier NP? Grand Canyon?

Some parking lot in….Boise?:laugh:

Congrats on his graduation and hope he has a wonderful experience with the Army! Is he going to Joint Base Langley-Eustis?

That’s going to be an awesome trip brother!! Nice truck too! Hit me up after your back and we’ll ride out for breakfast or lunch sometime
 
Just in from a decent ride out in the back country.......a nice day for a ride..

Out on one of the roads a BMW RS came flying up behind and overtook me at a pretty good clip......I patted the side of my helmet when he went by letting him know there's a cop ahead....but he didn't slow down at all....

I know that further up this particular road a cop sometimes runs radar (I think he lives nearby as I've seen a cruiser in a driveway close to where he normally sits) so I behaved myself and stayed at or near the speed limit....

As I got around a bend I saw the BMW pulled over and gave him a bit of a wave on the way by...
