We’ll catch you on the next one. As for the "how fast can I be?" comment, I'm glad you're on our side! Last edited by R1 Jackal; 08-06-2009 at 08:33 PM.. |

| WMRRA Qualifier Joined: Jul 2009 From: Corvallis, OR I Ride: 08 Hypervibrator | Glad everyone walked away from all the wrecks this summer, but the crash quota has been met (perhaps exceeded) so it must stop!!! See you all at bike night - I'll be by for a short visit in a cage - have to be at PDX to pick up my mom at 8:30 or so, she's visiting from NH for a week. Any bicyclists out there want to show her around? I think she cycles on the order of 10-60 mi per day trip. Probably will ride my recumbent but we could rent a mountain/road bike for her as well. Some day I will be in as good physical condition as she is ![]() |

| Endorsed Joined: Jan 2009 From: around the next corner .... | I hear ya Whitesmokeyzf – A small ride before bike night sounds good! For all who are interested, let’s meet up at Creekside coffee at 5:10 pm (after work), kickstands up at 5:25 pm. We’ll run the route then return to American Dream Pizza for bike night, probably a little after 6:15 pm. As for the route, I’d like to run up to Mary’s Peak, or up King’s Valley and around back to Corvallis. Since I haven’t seen you in a while (whitesmokeyzf), let me know which route you would like to run, then I’ll post. |

As suggest earlier, we will be ridding the bike night run before heading over to American Dream Pizza. So for anyone who is interested, we’ll gather at Creekside Coffee (in the Safeway shopping center) beginning around 5pm, kickstands up at 5:20pm, and run the Mary’s Peak/Decker Road route back to pizza & beer! I hope we’ll get a good turn out, see you there! See the route link below.http://ridewithgps.com/routes/6013 |

| Moderator ![]() Joined: Jun 2007 From: Corvallis, Oregon I Ride: '07 Triumph America "sport-cruiser" & '06 Ninja 650R | 2nd Anniversary Another great turnout, I think we had over 30 bikes again tonight and several of those were new. I didn't realize it until Bert asked how long we've been doing this, but tonight was the second anniversary of bike night. Thank you to everyone who keep coming out to bike night and to all the first timers and new faces we see every month. I think we have a great group of riders in this area, thanks for your support and keep spreading the word. And thank you to American Dream Pizza for hosting such a large group!! ![]() |

| Endorsed Joined: Jan 2009 From: around the next corner .... | Thanks to all that showed up for the bike night run! It was good to see some new face, and current riders. I’ve ridden Mary’s Peak a few times now and it just keeps getting better every time I go. After some pizza and drink, ooeddym and I assaulted the peak again, at night! We ran a little slower pace due to the darkness, and I almost ‘ran’ across some deer crossing the road. Ooeddym said they looked like bucks but all I saw was a big white ass that I could have slapped! Too bad Rick wasn’t there to clean them out for us … maybe next time. |

I really enjoyed the ride and meeting other local riders. I just joined the forum. I look forward to doing some group rides again. If you see a guy on a red, white, & black Tuono, it's me. |

It's a big danger especially from dusk to dawn and worth paying LOTS of attention to. SPCD ![]() |

| Endorsed Joined: Jan 2009 From: around the next corner .... | Yep, we had a great turnout for October! The wife & I got to ride home with Ducatichick & FreeRadical via Decker Road, then of course, the Alsea curves which are always fun. Didn’t run across any deer except for one, in town, right off the road along Hwy 20 at 35th street, during the road construction – go figure….. |
