8-7-11 Sunday Sleepyhead Ride?

[Ghost]

Anyone planning a non-buttcrack-of-dawn AGATT MoCo to X ride?

[Vellos]

You made a thread about someone planning a ride other than the already planned ride? :dunno:

[madvlad]

It's too early for him lol

[WolFeYeZ]

I'm in for one ghost, do you discriminate against textile pants like George?

[madvlad]

We can do a quick early ride and then meet up with you guys

[Vellos]

Mesh ≠ Textile.

[WolFeYeZ]

Mesh ≠ Textile.

Got it. But I have no idea of the difference. Which would my pants be George?

[grim]

Mesh ≠ Textile.

elaborate please cause I just bought a pair of cortech textile pants today.

[grim]

ghost sorry for the thread jack


carrying on smartly!

[Ghost]

I'm in for one ghost, do you discriminate against textile pants like George?

Given the heat I'll probably wear my mesh anyway. You're more likely to slam into a guardrail, boulder, or car than slide far enough to wear through anything anyway.


You made a thread about someone planning a ride other than the already planned ride? :dunno:

Yep. Different time.


It's too early for him lol

Definitely. :p

What time you thinking?

There's a brunch thing with friends & family I might go to, but that'd probably be most of the morning unless I skip it, go before (blek) or after it's over...

[Ghost]

5:30? Damn lol haha LETS GO!

F that. I need more than 1.5 hrs beauty sleep :p


LMAO! :pointlaugh:
Hopefully we can all meet up with Ghost later in the day. Have a great ride. See ya tomorrow!

Yeah if we can get a time & place that'd work it'd be cool.


ghost sorry for the thread jack


Np, enjoy your pre-dawn run, I'll be asleep. :p

[Cornfed]

Yeah if we can get a time & place that'd work it'd be cool.

Txt me, 515-508-9639, or Damire tomorrow when you guys roll out and we can make plans from there. Ride safe tomorrow everybody.....

Hittin the fart sack. :sleeping:

[Vellos]

But I have no idea of the difference.

Textile has a tighter weave ballistic nylon and typically features more armoring. Mesh is a loose breezy weave that doesn't do much good for you in a crash.

I have textile then, thanks. I could do with some pants that actually allow some form of air into them... I come home soaked and stinky every ride.

[madvlad]

Okay grim-o lets do eeeet! Then cruise back down an mo riding and then mo riding. What time you thinking on riding ghost?

I'll wear my Spidi/Alpinestars summer gear tomorrow, it's textile/mesh very comfy. Think you can still order it even though it's a few years old.

Thinking 10:45 meet @MoCo, KSU 11am, that work for you guys?

Moderate pace, route TBD

I'd be amazed if you did

[madvlad]

That's cool with me, I dk about cornfed though. Not sure where and how long we'll be riding but from 7 am thats plenty of time.

[madvlad]

Ok cool, see you tomorrow for your 3rd and my first ride of the morning :lol:

For shizzle! I will see you guys then!

[Vellos]

[madvlad]

[Ghost]

We finished that run early lol

Lol, coffee time? Or time for 4 runs?

[madvlad]

Im up in nederlands now with cornfed

[madvlad]

Awesome ride today, no crashes so thumbs up on that!... had a blast and so did Ghost' CBR at the bottom of Mt Evans after lunch. That was retarded lol, glad everyone was okay though Wolfeyez got some 91 octane right in the face but no serious injury thankfully. Very unexpected

did someone outside of your group go down

[madvlad]

Oh no, ghost went to check for gas level and just BOOM! Gas flying everywhere and into their faces and eyes... No one was expecting that. Wolfeyez got the worst of it but no serious injury.

[Ghost]

HFS that was total suck.

I've never seen anything like that (literally) in my life. We stopped at the Shell in Idaho Springs to refill the gas my tank geysered everywhere and I'd lost over 2.2 gallons in that wonderful explosion-waiting-to-be-fireball.

Just from the gift shop thing at the base of Mt Evans to the Shell it'd built pressure again, so...

...I'm thinking stuck vent valve/check valve something.

Anyway, OTHER than that it was good.

"Other than that Ms. Lincoln, how was the play?"

[madvlad]

Yea, that was epic as hell

[Ghost]

Yea, that was epic as hell

Epic Suck.

I'm assuming there's a vent line pinched somewhere...though why it didn't blow off first with that level of pressure is totally beyond me.

[madvlad]

Have you or anyone lifted the gas tank for any reason lately?

[Ghost]

Have you or anyone lifted the gas tank for any reason lately?

Nope, not I, never since I bought it. It's all stock from top to bottom...

I did have the ECU replaced under warranty, but they shouldn't have needed to tip the tank for that AFAIK...

Still, maybe they did...or maybe it came pinched from the factory, it's had run issue since I bought it. This could actually explain it, and the ECU was never the problem...

[madvlad]

sucks is not under warranty still so they could check it out. Only way it would be to lift the tank and check for any pinched hoses

Checked my paperwork, warranty until Aug 21st, so we will let them play with it Tuesday.

I just feel the need to try to do a controlled vent now before my tank cracks...or the entire bike explodes and takes my garage with it. :eek:

I would probably leave the gas tank cap cracked open to avoid pressure build up till you can get it over there

[Ghost]

Yeah, definitely

[WolFeYeZ]

I had a great time riding with you guys and thanks Ghost for the nice fun pace :).

Good luck on that whole tank pressure thing, I'm glad it's got the warranty on there still. That has got to be handy.

[madvlad]

It was a fun ride though, gotta get out to the track and improve my mad skills yo lol

Sure thing man, thanks for coming out.

How was your ride from Idaho Springs?

Yeah, warranty will hopefully help. Sorry you got doused man, totally sucked & totally unexpected.

Get a suit & come out to HPR 9/5 for Chicane. There's even a thread started by Sean for people needing to borrow gear.

[Bugkiller1]

I saw you guys at least three different times on Sunday: the MoCo, Echo Lake, and then at the Shell station in Idaho Springs. I was on the red Ducati Multistrada 2 up, Rossi helmet.

Hope the bike problem worked out.

Hehe, we kept commenting on you as we definitely noticed the helmet & bike. ;)

Bike's going to the shop later today, looks like a stuck/jammed tank vent valve. Haven't inspected the tank fully, but hoping it's not deformed from the massive pressure it was under.

Anyway, good almost riding with you, feel free to join up if we cross paths again. :D
