5/27/11 ride

Who was the guy you were behind at the very end of the video?

El Jefe

[Finklestein87]

Here's the view from the back. Sweeping up Golden Gate. Yes Finklestein was erratic and following too closely. He would have no room to avoid if something were to go haywire. I spoke to him on top of GG. and he calmed down later that ride. We were all noobs at some point, gotta start from somewhere.

Zach... ROFLMAO!

This video shows the distance I was following very well and it was close indeed. Definitely glad I learned this lesson now and not the hard way (taking someone else out). Thanks everyone for your input.

No, I think the very end was another noob on a red and black R6.

[Vellos]

The very last clip at the end, where the dude like leans hard off his bike and turns, then straightens up mid turn, and does it again. Looked like the back of a Yamaha.

Oh, I missed that part. I was talking about the (almost)knuckle drag going down 7

Nice!

Guess I should have amended the below comment to read, "NO ONE likes people riding too close to them."

When did this become a n00b ride? I'll be riding my usual pace, slow(ish) and steady. My only big peeve is those that ride too close to me.

I'm sorry I missed this one. I was on an A319 flying back from Phoenix. The irony of good jobs is while they finance many good times, they also interfere.



I simply can't help but respond to the word in bold above with HWY-105 last fall. Slow(ish) me arse. And how can I say this? I was right behind you. I can agree, however, that it was steady.

105 is an easy road, so was just covering ground on that ride.

HOLY SHIT, couldn't you get any farther up Maria's ass!?!

She yelled at me already during the ride. Plus the fish-eyed lens makes it worse. I'm still learning.

Finklestein87 and I did talk at the top of Golden Gate Canyon. I did try to advise him to stay back during the beginning of the ride as he was trying to ride side by side on the road. I hope you get in plenty of riding this summer and hopefully I'll meet up with you again.
