Well you guys that was some very nice roads. Thanks for letting me TRY to follow you. In the tight stuff you two looked real good. For the most part the roads were in very good shape. Now I see why they made vented leathers. I logged 418 miles yesterday. See you next ride.

KKM,

To answer your question from yesterday, I can't speak for Brian, but I am also a cyclist.  I do some century (100 mile) bike rides every now and then for fun.  I'm one of those guys Wills makes fun of.   Which helps explain coming back from a ride like yesterday's and not really feeling it.  Cycling takes a lot more out of the body than motorcycling, plus since there are similarities, one helps toughen me up for the other.  That and the fact that whether I was following or leading Brian, I was laughing my butt off having a good time.   It's hard to get bored and tired when you're having so much fun.

How was Mt. Rose hwy?  Was it as congested as I thought?

I'm glad you guys had another epic ride. Bucks Lake is my absolute favorite stretch of motorcycle heaven. I took the family out to Frenchmans on both Sat and Sun. Had a blast. :o I feel an SSA day coming on ;D ;D ;D. Here's a pic of the new to me 21' Reinell. Yee ha

Ahhh, nice! I'm real good at holding down the seat cushions if you ever bring it to tahoe.  ;D

I'll double down on that.  I can hold a flag for skiing.  When do we go?

I do believe the schedule calls for THIS SAT ;D. Is there any interest from any of the other peeps? 8)

Brian,

I think BC is referring to the Bonus Jet Ski day at Boca this Saturday.

That'll be great!  We'll have my jet ski and his boat.   Wow, this is going to be fun.

Big Cat PM me and we can set another date for the boating and biking day.  

GM, Yes I do ride still.  You clown.  So I haven't been on to many rides so far.  I really like spending time with my new Son.

Dragon,

Nothing wrong with spending time with your family.  I admire that.

If the weather warms up here sometime this Summer, maybe we can all go hang out on BC's new boat.  I'll chip in for gas!
