Hampton Roads Chatter

I'm definitely in. I'll already be in that area for the beginning of bow season, so it won't be too hard for me to swing over and do some riding. Great time of year for the mountains!

As the time get's closer we can start another thread to organize, etc.

anyone going to BYOB in a couple weeks?

Give him time.....

Bob will be fine in the box. It actually seems to be a much smoother ride than the sidecar. He is safer there, out of the sun, out of the rain etc. With a cheap padlock on it I will feel much better about running in the gas station to take a leak. He will miss those nice 70 degree days of having the wind in his face but at least he will still be able to come to camp with me.

I am way ahead of you guys on my new jacket and fluffy farkles.

The boy and I are getting matching jackets because that is what you do'

I made a rack for my XT.





Built using a cheap-o buzz box stick welder, angle grinder, and 2"x1/8" bar stock.

Not as nice as the stuff that JDrocks makes, but it seems pretty strong, and all the holes line up even after welding it together.

Nice job Nuggets.

Nice !.... It must be rack time..I'm in the middle of making one for the K-GT so I can either slide on my GIVI case or take it off and have room to strap a BIG duffle bag.

5 of us heading to the mountains for 5 days in the morning. I dont think Ill sleep well tonight



Oh, video to come dont worry

My only regret is that I didn't make it sooner.

Looks like fun.

This is DAANG as of now. Hope you guys have a lot of fun, for the rest of us who cannot be as cool as you we will wait paitently for the vids...

Ride fast and take lots of chances.
















(Have a freakng blast and be safe!)

If you are going to crash, crash really fast...makes for much better film

They say you need all that stuff, but they really just check tire pressure and registration every time I've been.

It does leave from the campground at 0900. There is parking up front if you trailer in for the day. We usually get a few sites with power, the night time temps can drop pretty low. We have cleaned frost off the bikes a few times, so a small heater comes in handy. They give out directions on a roll chart, no GPS coords.

Looking forward to it!

what areas are you riding?

i'll be out there also.

Starting from B.E.s tomorrow and Thursday. Plans are pretty fluid from there. Leave a note if you want to meet up.

Looks like a nice deal on a Super Sherpa for anyone looking.

Vickstick has a bike just like that. Speaking of which, where the hell is Vickstick????

With the exception of a couple of tie-downs to be drilled in ..I'm done...all for about $25
