Yup, That was it... No wheelie, stoppie, showing off, or finger snapping... Nothing
It was mid corner... Not on the straightaway part

Good ride guys, I'm glad you're alright Mike I was scared for a second when I first saw you in the ditch. I used to live out in Redmond so I ride tolt, ames lake, snoqualmie valley highway, etc. all of the time, I learned to ride out on them. I was the guy on the white and red F4i, I meant to meet up with you guys at XXX but I ended up just going all the way back to Seattle after I missed the exit and realized I was coming up on 405. Who was that with the Aprilia that I was following back?

Was that on Tolt Hill Rd going towards Carnation? I recognize the weird fence as I live right up the road. Wish I knew this ride was going on, need to be more active on here.

Mike, good to see you are okay and in good spirit.

Ride Safe all!

Maybe on the track but these guys have some balls on the street. I mean, some of those turns were crazy and i saw sand on them where some were cookin. lol. Not saying anytning bad about anyone, I just think those speeds need to stay on a track. I got very nervous when we were flyin on some roads with those hidden drive ways. I had a couple close calls myself with people stopping all of a sudden in front. But i lived. Prob will never ride in a group that big again unless they do go at an easy pace. Good group of people though

I had a blast - apologize to anyone "stuck" behind me and my FZ that is being broken in. I had the throttle wrenched open coming out of turns... but was keeping it under 8k for the most part (only 330 miles on it as of yesterday).

I agree with gaz though, think I will opt out of groups that big, in the interest of self and bike preservation. The stops were the scariest part of the day. I am amazed we didn't have an incident other than the yellow gsx-r.

Anyways, good to meet a few of you.

I was behind you for most of the first part, and that was a good enough pace for me haha. I don't know how some of those guys were going so fast in the front. Like I said I know those roads, and I know how sanded they get in the winter

Roads were decent enough, our group (#2 I think, only 5 of us) wasn't goin too fast... I had a good time sweepin. Then Diabolic forgot to put his mp3 player cords in his jacket, and the other group caught up, wasn't a big fan of that many people bunched up.
