Driftertank · 03-02-2009, 04:46 PM

IN like Flynnt.....but I gotta bounce out in time to get back in town by 9.

Timebom · 03-02-2009, 08:25 PM

Thank you to all who showed up, snow or not. lol
Think i am liking the coffee thing more than the full meal deal. plan on more of these.

Katyonka · 03-02-2009, 08:27 PM

Good to see everyone again and nice to meet you Josh. I also got to have my first ride in the dark.

MotardGirl · 03-02-2009, 08:32 PM

Sorry I missed it tonite, I will try to make the next one. Would love to meet you all, I have probably seen you around town but a name to the face is always great!

jmkogut · 03-02-2009, 09:16 PM

On the ride down it started snowing/raining it was fscking intense.

Katyonka · 03-02-2009, 09:30 PM

Well glad to know you made it home safe jmkogut. Really glad we got to meet you tonight.

MotardGirl we want to do more of these it is always fun to meet everyone and put faces to names. Look forward to meeting you at the next one.

EburgR1200GS · 03-02-2009, 10:01 PM

Someday soon, we'll be able to meet and ride. I'm ready for winter to be over. See yall next time.

Eh, wasn't snow. Just a little slush. It ain't snowin till it sticks to your visor...

the chemist · 03-03-2009, 01:03 AM

ill be back soon!

jmkogut · 03-03-2009, 08:30 AM

Just a little slush he says, as we hurl down the road over 70mph with little more to protect us than some clothes and the only thing keeping us from certain doom are two thin strips of rubber contacting the wet road.

Yeah it was just a little slush. Enough to excite me though.

Driftertank · 03-03-2009, 09:40 AM

Hehe....kids.

Trust me, things can ALWAYS be more exciting. Do this gig long enough, there's a chance you will end up riding in conditions you didn't think were possible. Keep your head on straight, don't panic, slow down (or speed-up, if the case calls for it), and always take care of your bike, and it'll take care of you.

I always like when people ask, when I was stuck in nasty weather, why i didn't pull over and stop. In broad daylight, with a passing weather system, that's a great idea. When it's cold, dark, or wet out, and getting worse, your best bet is to just hunker down and press on until you can find a SAFE place to stop and wait it out.

jmkogut · 03-03-2009, 11:21 AM

Your signature was especially suiting for that last post.

Timebom · 03-03-2009, 02:21 PM

i agree. lol and its usually a big deal the first time. unless your old and jaded. lol
heck i remember the first time i got high centered on a snowdrift, had to throw the bike in reverse and back up far enough to get a good run at it and bust through. it was a big deal then

jmkogut · 03-03-2009, 02:41 PM

hm. I have yet to ride around in snowdrifts on a bike. I typically prefer 4 wheels for that sort of thing.

For those of us who ride "normal" bikes, that statement is WRONG on so many levels....

jmkogut · 03-03-2009, 02:55 PM

but after seeing his bike, it makes perfect sense.

Driftertank · 03-03-2009, 02:59 PM

You'd be amazed what you can safely ride your bike through.... however, the worse the conditions, the better your chances of ending up a hood ornament. I'd be fine with riding my GSXR across a frozen lake....but if there's sombody driving a car within a half -mile of that lake, I'm gonna sit it out.

Fuckin cagers.

On a side note, I found my car key.

jmkogut · 03-03-2009, 03:07 PM

Oh yay! Where was it?

Driftertank · 03-03-2009, 03:28 PM

Under some laundry, on the floor, in the basement..

Timebom · 03-03-2009, 03:30 PM

well, we were safe....

jmkogut · 03-04-2009, 08:17 AM

Is Kyle a bad driver?

Katyonka · 03-04-2009, 01:09 PM

Car? Never seen him in a car before he is always on bike and seems to keep it up when we have been with him.

Yea, I've seen him in a car. It was at Starbucks though, so I don't think that counts.

jmkogut · 03-04-2009, 02:19 PM

Sigh. What's with people and meeting at Starbucks, there are better coffee shops around.

I take it you haven't been to Moses Lake yet!

SiX · 03-04-2009, 03:42 PM

We had a cool coffee shop in Moses Lake, it no longer exists. :( I really miss the Noon Moon
