Are you sure BMW's are welcome on that ride??

[sttub]

Is this ride open to all makes and models?

[JetdocX]

I'm sure it is.  I'm just ribbing my pal the 'plank.

Anything on 2 wheels has shown up before. The time change will mean the sun will be up 1 hour earlier

[JetdocX]

I'm thinking more like four.  But who would have time to maintain FOUR???

Careful, last time i had a car following it ended up like this.

Was good to run into you as well GreenMachine.  I knew that was you tucked in behind the windscreen from a mile away.

The ride was great.  Especially when the loud mouth who was ridiculing Sierra BMW and my GS before the ride got a flat and fell off his bike in the parking lot.  He had just finished blabbing about how it was B.S. that Sierra BMW wouldn't let him test ride the race bike the day before.  Now you know why they wouldn't let you test ride it.  You couldn't even keep your DLR/KLR upright in the parking lot!

Sorry to rip on the guy.  But this is the first group ride I have been on in the past 21 years where someone gave me a hard time and made me feel unwelcome from the minute he opened his mouth.  Karma is a bitch buddy!

Please note that I do not believe this guy was a SSA member.  The rest of the people on the ride were great to be with!

Actually he was just being sarcastic. He owns a BMW and I was with him when we visited the dealer. It was just a couple of guys having fun with the rep, who was a good guy. The rep was from South Carolina and he was really tired of all the dumb questions, so we ripped on liberals which he enjoyed. I sat on the "fastest production bike" and it fit well, like my CBR...just bigger and heavier. Bill knew it could not be ridden, he was just playing with the guy. Bill gives me a hard time about my CBR and Connie, until I loose him . He is a character and always good for entertainment.
