Should we just meet in the middle, or did you have a place in mind. Sorry, I am an f-n smart ass before my second cup o' joe.

[jimwallace]

hell i dont care.... i'm lookin into a particular place so once i know about it i'll give a solid shout on that.

[jimwallace]

[PharmerKyle]

Gaaah!

The 12th is when my store's doing flu shots. I won't be out until after 7 and then I have to be back the next morning.

[$pOiLeD_rOoKiE]

That sucks Pharmerkyle....I would offer assistance by shooting some vaccines for you to help speed things up, but I am guessing that they would want me to be certified in that sort of thing, which I kinda am since I am a medic but don't have any state creditials....just a thought.....

[jimwallace]

I've already started preping the teachers, I told them I'm going to Canyon and I'm setting the alarm at 6pm sharp!! (So Get OUT!! ) lol

Hey Dallas,
How did your track day go? Did you get your knee down? lol Or did Krissy spank you?:hump:
I think I was getting pretty close, but I wasn't really looking at my knees!!! I was trying to focus on the new techniques I had learned, like put the ball of your foot on the end of your peg and drive your knee to the ground. I am used to the good ol' hold the bike as hard as you can with your knees, so it was kinda akward at first.

I won't be going down to the bike night because my wife and I will be going out (alone) to celebrate our wedding aniversary of ten years (yes that is 10 years) of being together. Have fun at bike night and have a safe ride down.

[Clovis]

I'm down and I got my R1 back :)

Kool Dallas,
The main thing is to feel comfortable with your new info and techniques, then your attention can be focused elsewhere. Watching the pros they are almost always on the balls of thier feet (better leverage). Hope you have a wonderful anniversary! And keep practicing!!:hump:

[Bashed]

Count me in for the group ride down Drift.
The missus is cagin it.

Later Bash

Now that is just silly. If anyone actually followed him, their bikes would stall. No one can go as slow as a Yamaha

Thank god you didn't say Kawi mister....you can live another day sir!!!!!

[Clovis]

Actually I probably wont be able to make it. I just got laid off as Countrywide closed my branch so we've got to budget our funds. My "severence" package amounted top $202 after taxes. This after I made $270,000 in gross profit for Countrywide since March '07.

[Hi11Zone]

so i take S. Academy all the way to 115 till shell gas station right?

[gsxrscott]

Yeah thats past Pikes Peak Community College and the front gate of Fort Carson, Then across the bridge at Hwy. 115. It is the shopping center on your right. The Shell station is in the back left corner (north west corner) I'll keep my eyes open for you on my way over in case you are lost! lol :)

[Jeffro]

I set my trip meter when we left Canyon City. At around 24 miles in a left hand corner, anybody else see those 2 bucks on the right hand side of the road? Glad we weren't running too hard at that point. And the answer to Bash's trivia question is Thomas Stevens, 1991. How you like them apples bitches?

[jimwallace]

just wanted to say thank you to everyone for coming down on friday night. I thought it was really cool and we had a good turn out. hope everyone had a good time. yeah ya need to watch out for the critters going down 115. So how many of you froze your &^!!$ off?

[Bashed]
