Northeast ST.N Meet & Greet, 5/2/09, Great Barrington, Mass.

[NH YZF]

Sweet ride! Met some great people and found some new amazing roads to add to the list.  The group that left McD's up rt 22 ran an excellent pace (thanks Hulked Up!!)...after we split up at 100/9, the NH group crested a rise with a Vt. trooper on the left shoulder...amazed we didn't get nabbed.

Leebo took us on a side road off of Rt. 5, well worth the detour.  After, the 2 SV's and I make out way back to NH. We had the roads to ourselves and kept a "spirited" pace. ~400 miles for the day.

Hey, just joined the forums. I had a great time and hope to do more rides!

BTW, for those who saw my finger, I got it x-rayed and it ended up being a bad sprain thankfully.

Glad to here your fingers not broken. Did you figure out why your bike was so hard starting after lunch?

Just low on gas. Had to switch to reserve.

Awsome ride yesterday ! It wasn't without incident though. We did have a rider go down on the northern loop after lunch.

Fortunately it was on the side of the road and was voluntary, to fix his sidestand I believe

Do these bags make my ass look wide?

Great time again.. 340 miles at the end of the day.
I thought we were had twice, once by a Mass Statie, gps showed 56 in a 40 but he didnt turn around and then in Vt it was 69 in a 50 and he left us alone....
 Thanks Vince for letting us use the parking lot, thanks Keith for once again ramrodding this event.
 I hope to see a lot of you guys this summer riding.

Hey Lee,

Thanks for inviting me along on this ride.  Great group of guys, fantastic roads.  Really a nice opportunity for me to get acquainted with my "new to me" GS.  Hope to see all again real soon.
