Corvallis and Albany Oregon Riders - Post Up here and say hi! - Page 3

Hi all,

Been lurking for a bit, finally thought I'd post. I'm 39 and out of Corvallis. Looking to ride dirt (MX, trails, dual) and street. Currently riding a KTM Super Duke and 530 EXC (addicted to orange!). Been riding on and off since I was a teen. Both my kids ride (son KTM 65SX and daughter Honda CRF50), both getting into MX.

Will make Bike Night soon!

See ya around

Did I get the vibe of Dual Sport? We need more dual sport riders for sure. Mix it up a bit. You a Flat mountain guy as well? I see so many Orange bikes up there. That is why I am riding Dr. Frankenbike (DR350 with parts from other models and brands on it). Black and white with rainbow annodized parts like an ebay disaster, can't miss it.

Drag out to bike night on wed. I will be on the red F650 BMW. Jason

Depends on the terrain for dual sporting. I'm up for forest service and logging roads no problem, even a jeep trail or so. Not interested in taking a 550# bike on any single track though, I have a dirt bike for that stuff.

And yes I ride at the grade (flat mountain) when it is in season.

hrothgarbike · 06-02-2009, 05:41 PM

Sweet! I will not push singletrack on my F650. No way! Jeep trails are my max as well.

Did my first club ride at flat mountain on Sunday. So cool!! Have not ridden dirt bikes since I was a kid, and I forgot how fast they can be on singletrack. Dual Sports are still good, but not dirtbikes for sure. So I will be anticipating some flat mountain in October.

dryer70 · 06-02-2009, 08:33 PM

I can't ever manage to make a work party for flat mountain, so i've yet to get up there.

If there is one coming up soon, I hope to make it.

I'm always up for on\off road action, that's been my main type of riding for the longest time. Depending whether I need to ride the bike home or have a trailer nearby will usually dictate where I try to take it. I've mainly been poking around the OHV trails, so I'd love to find some new places to ride.

Check back in for a work party at the beginning of September or end of August. The next riding season is Sept through Nov, weather permitting.

My rides often include at least some gravel and/or dirt roads, unless of course it is a road only. It all depends on who I'm riding with if anybody.

hrothgarbike · 06-03-2009, 05:16 AM

Isn't that the case! Usually I am solo as well. Usually didn't plan on riding there but I thought that gravel road looked good and I don't have to be home for a while......

Hope to see some of you at bike night, Tonight! I will cruise in on the red F650.

KillerB · 06-25-2009, 03:02 PM

KillerB, Welcome! We'll be looking for you at this Wednesday's bike night in Corvallis.

ducatichick · 07-01-2009, 02:37 PM

Hi, just joined, hoping to make it to bike night tonight, also hoping to make it to Independence on Sunday! 38 year old chickie on a Ducati Hypermotard.

cascaderider · 07-01-2009, 03:21 PM

Welcome! What a nice combination!

10guy · 07-01-2009, 04:03 PM

Welcome and hope you can make it tonight. I think we are trying to get the roof so if you don't see us downstairs try up.

So many people downstairs, I never made it upstairs, dang! It was great meeting folks and their bikes. Wouldn't it be nice to have some bike parking there? I saw more Ducs last night than I have ever seen in Corvallis - where'd they all come from?

Rick · 07-02-2009, 10:12 PM

we were all downstairs... too hot upstairs. Glad you could make it but I didn't get a chance to say hello. Hope to see you there next month or at Sat. Morning coffee.

Tweezak · 07-13-2009, 10:26 AM

Heyas. I'm a transplant from SBWS. School curtailed my riding for a while and after that, I got back into bicycling. I'm ashamed to admit that my motorcycle has not moved in about a year. I'm looking forward to getting back into it. Hope to meet up with some of you.

Cheers!

hrothgarbike · 07-13-2009, 06:00 PM

Oh yeah!! I love bicycles. PM me and we can ride them. Road or mountain? I have to do both, you know, to keep the cardio up. Jason

Blocker · 07-16-2009, 09:11 PM

Just found the site. I'm 24 and finishing up my degree at OSU. Looking for some rides. I'll be at the next Wednesday night at American Dream. See you there!

Rick · 07-16-2009, 10:33 PM

Welcome Blocker! Keep checking back on a regular basis. There is usually a ride posted up for the weekend and we get together on Saturday mornings at 10am for coffee at Creekside Coffee off of Technology Loop in the Safeway strip mall. Many times we head out on an impromptu ride from there.

Xunal · 07-22-2009, 02:52 PM

Hey guys-

My name is Buddy, I'm from Philomath.

Just got my first bike, 06 Ninja 500R, less than a month ago, have already put almost 2000 miles on it.

Hopefully I can meet some of you and cruise around. Not many of my friends have bikes.
