Hey Grim, Im gonna skip this group and do my own ride with the roommate I think. I was planning on keeping it low-key and it'll be one less noob on the ride for you guys. Might see you at moco though before you all head out. Have fun!

Is it that same thing you mentioned the other day?

Jmetz
Sat Oct 15th, 2011, 10:13 PM
No this is much worse. I tried adjusting the chain to no avail. Hearing this I'm afraid to ride it.

I don't blame you if you get it fixed see you there if not prob shouldn't risk it that bike it too pretty to ruin!

Jmetz

Yeah. I think it's the chain and I think it may be toast. I really want to ride but I'm not gonna risk it. Lame. :poo:

have you checked the sprockets ? alum. sprockets wore off easy, keep the chain lubed and dont remove chain guard to keep tire free of lube

Just got back home. Great ride today and nice to meet some new people. My condolences to those who were lucky enough to receive “performance awards” from Boulder County.

I misplaced my keys 2nd Nederland stop and lost track of you guys. Guessing the group decided to take the Boulder route while I incorrectly assumed you’d taken 119. I hope this didn’t delay anyone.

Great ride today. Clean roads, light traffic that even gave us the thumbs up a couple times. Cant wait to see the video!

grim
Sun Oct 16th, 2011, 06:46 PM
Gentleman even with the performance award I earned on p2p I had an absolutely fucking awesome time riding with everyone who showed up!

Devils gulch is an amazing road and I can't emphasize enough how awesome it was that there was practically no traffic everywhere we went!!


Thanks to all who rode with me, and I have some awesome footage to upload throughout the week.

Im home. Got cut off on 119 but we eventually made it to 36 and back to Denver just before dark. Anyone who wants to see my "phantom animal" video clip, shoot me a PM with an email address. I was right. There was nothing there. My brain just failed. :slap::gay::oops::tomato::doublefinger::think:

Illegal passing lmao! I had the worst fucking timing I was coming uphill and pantera started playing on the iPod so I started feeling froggy. When I got to the top of the hill the lane was wide open to pass so I did and there was the sheriff making a u turn to park his car to watch traffic he saw the whole damn thing.

I got a nice warning from a group of sport bikes when I was heading towards Ned on P2P, probably saved me from an award. HW7 was great, little traffic and the traffic that was there was the most motorcycle friendly I've encountered. Great weekend overall, hope we get more nice weekends like this in the coming months.

I think I may have crossed into you on 7 today, all I saw was the all black R1 since I was moving rather fast going up, so assuming it was you lol

Yea I actually started laughing as soon as I knew it was you thinking "she sees us motorcycle hooligans on the side of the road with three sheriff vehicles" Then to top it off you honked at us I feel bad for not lifting up my shirt and flashing you to earn that honking!

Not doctorate, masters degree he was asking if any of us had one. I said "no we just need an endorsement to ride no degree required" He said "well I have one so shit doesn't go over my head smartass"

Wish I would have been able to start the day with you all, sounds like you had a blast! Pesky work.
It was a grate time on the side of the road with you and the three Sherrif's though!
I ran GG to P2P to Lyons before I met up with you all, not bad but I ran into a lot of sherrif's which made my ride a bit slower than I like. Can't wait to see the videos from the day.
I would like to ride with you all again.

Did you double yellow right in front of the Sheriff?

Not right in front of him he was turning around getting ready to park from the opposite direction and he just barely saw me.

HOLY SHIT!!!!!! I finally just watched the gopro video when I go pulled over and guess what??? I actually made a legal pass on the white truck in fact according to the go pro the sheriff never even saw me pass the truck!! The lines were on my side when i passed the truck!!!

longrider
Tue Oct 18th, 2011, 06:16 PM
It sounds to me like you have a solid defense when you go to court. Just print a couple stills showing you passing while legal and that should take care of it. I would probably bring the whole video anyway but you should not need it. BTW, I would burn it to DVD, the court might frown on you bringing a camera into court.

I'm almost positive that was us. Saw you solo on the Raven, reminded me of another bike.
One in our group passed 3 cars on a double yellow as a truck was coming opposite direction. Truck turned out to be sheriff. He slowed, but didn't turn. Another sheriff passed 5 minutes later but we were behaving. Guess it was shift change.

Funny you said that cuz I watched my gopro footage too and I was never closer than 1.5 seconds to the car I was supposedly tailgating. I emailed a law office and explained my situation to them to see if I have a solid defense on this. Whats your court date? Mine's January 9.
