Anyone do them / want to?
Canyons - city - anywhere. ?

I'll be ready to piss of some bystanders soon. I don't usually do the cruise thing, but my bike should get a lot of looks...

Night riding is my favorite. I should be back up and running soon, would be glad to join. Not doing canyons at night though, wildlife and road conditions and f'ed up cagers drinking. I'll go anywhere else though. In chicago we would meet up downtown and ride till 6am, some of the most beautiful sensets you've ever seen. Very peaceful and great photo ops.

twisties at night. wow that was something. A good friend of mine stayed with me on the way down, i bet the cops saw us for a brief second then noticed 3 other bikes 6+ seconds behind us. Probably figured they would let themselves be known.

Brave souls, I dont trust myself during the day in the canyons. Sux about the ticket.

LiQuIdAiR=OTB=
Mon Jun 29th, 2009, 10:56 PM
Yeah, Highway 285. A short 2 miles ride up with, hmmm, 13 turns or so. Only 8 worth riding. But we got some on the way up and the way down :)

michaelawsome
Mon Jun 29th, 2009, 10:57 PM
no no i didnt get a ticket.. it just i cant get another one,im like one more point away from suspended for a year!!

Mon Jun 29th, 2009, 11:02 PM
a nice warm day. a 6 hour ride. Long rides are where they're at. You have to come home tired, or it's not worth doing.

We need to plan it out. Have check points. Rest areas. Places to stop and eat and piss (of course). Try and get the most of the day by riding thru it.

LiQuIdAiR=OTB=
Mon Jun 29th, 2009, 11:03 PM
maybe even have way points. We stop and take pictures of riders as they come by on the really nice turns. That would be sick!

That sounds good, last ride I did like that was in LA up PCH to Santa Barbara...good times for sure. Even if it was on a Harley.

Yeah. Was half an oh sh*t moment. But we're all good. Fun times had by all and hopefuly we'll have more light for the twisty parts. And end right after dark with moe's or 5 guys

Freakin' sick. I can imagine using that and having a bug splat right on the lens. That is really good quality too.

But the sound on this one was pretty jacked up.
I was still experimenting with it.

No worries. Only reason I say that is becuase a large majority of the camera system videos I can find always have a sound track... almost as if they are covering up for horrid sound quality.
