Not good to hear about our palz nearly getting plastered.

Was great to see the brave amongst us who either rode, caged or skated over.

Robo and I went over and had a good workout, nice back and biceps day.

Feelin stronger!

Smellin stronger!

Hopped in the shower and smelt bad no longer.

However, likely added to Shreck's Polution index !!!

pv2 - a real stinker by any other name

I honked my horn for a few seconds as he approached (not that you can hear it), and ended up jumping off my bike and began to run out of his way...last second he swung around the wrong side of me into oncoming traffic (nobody was there, lucky for him) and I ran back and caught my bike JUST before it hit the ground. Good thing it's just a 500 or I wouldn't of been able to catch it before it hit.

Just missed my bike by a few inches....since I got out of the way anyway, I kinda wish he did run into my bike. Could use the insurance!

Worst part was the jackass sped off behind me without even looking back...
HOLY CRAP DUDE!!!!! i'm glad u r ok!! If you would have had that 600 or 1k bike u could have jumped back on ur bike, followed him (cuz he gets like 2MPG) and played some "Road Rash" with the guy

I had a great time meeting everyone last night for the first time and am planning on showing up again next week.

I'm excited to start getting on some group rides and track days with everyone.

A 'dirty MCA night' suggestion!
BRADY - YOU simply ROCK!

Keep it up brother! (and if you ever need creative ideas... - I'm thinking we need to have an annual 'MCA and the women's bathroom' night!! Folks can bring an extra pair of jeans and carry them around all night! (or they can stick a spermicidal condom on their bikes and ride it in ) We could include a 'get a hottie involved in a practical joke contest too!! with the prize being a smelly - SMELLY key chain!

oh wow - THAT had me laughing as I typed!

okok - another update - I just started a new job. So until they get tired of me (or me of them) I will be working afternoons until about 3am... including Tuesdays. I told ya'll I didn't wanna job!

anyway - I already miss you guys!!!!

keep it up on Tuesdays! at Ava's... in the Women's BR!

Nah, would of been awesome if he had crushed my bike, I chased the guy down on foot, hopped in the back of his pickup, bashed his rear window in, drug the drunkard out through the window, threw him into oncoming traffic as we coasted down the road, having the truck roll to a gradual stop just in front of the next jackass who is about to get into his car drunk.

THAT would of been a story to tell the grandchildren


As it stands it's just another checkmark on the wall for all the close calls riders have to deal with everyday.
