Mmmmmmm; Redwood road[8D]. I can smell it now! I ate an 86 GSXR750 on that road with my old 78 KZ650 in 86. That was one of thefew GSXR750's in theUS. They had just come out and were available in Canada and Europe but not here. The guy thought he was Hot S#!+ and was really snobby. He pulled up next to us at the stop sign next to the park. I said "NICE BIKE" and he just gave me the "What a piece of s#it"/ whatever look and took of. I tailed him for a few turnsand decided it was enough.I passed him on the outside of the Essesheading toward Lake Chabot. It was funny! My buddy whoalso had a KZ650but not as experienced as mesmoked him too until we hit the long straightaway; then he came blowing past us. Probably hurried home to park the bike so he could wipe his tears & runny nose from crying of being humiliated. I will never forget that day!

Man I miss the Bay Area!

A friend was up there last week and while going past the golf course thats up there had a golf ball hit the front of his 07 cbr600rr. It broke that little 3rd light on the front. That area is nice to ride but there have been a lot of accidents lately up there and to cops are in force in that area now.

Ok. I say we put it off a week so we can ride with gsims. See if any one else wants to ride 9 also. Plus It gives me a little more time to get my lock barrel fixed on my bike [:@].
