We are going to set the for sure plans tonight, so I will be able to post actual leaving time and a better guesstimate time of arrival at the Dam Site Inn.

Cheers

Well let me know.  A bud of mine and me are going to hell.  Leaving Lansing about 3 pm.  So look for the C-14 and a 900 vulcan.  If the wife goes with us, she will be on a bandit S with givi bags.

Alright, we will be leaving Michigan Center @ 2:30 p.m. so we should be at the Dam Site Inn around 4:00 p.m., 4:30 at the latest. Ride safe.

Sounds good. I'll be at the Dam Site Inn around 4ish (red Yamaha FZ6 likely with a Givi topcase).

First, my apologies to Pollux and Wibornz- I thought you guys were ready to go when I saw the big Connie fired up.  We waited down on Unadilla road for a couple of minutes after Stripes told me what a dumbass I was for taking off.

So kick me in the jimmies next time you see me.  I really didn't mean to leave without you guys.

It was nice to meet you all.

Nice pics.

It was nice meeting all of you today, great afternoon for a ride. I'd definitley be interested in a ride to Paradise/Hell/Wherever in the Spring. I hope D-Mac made it back w/ no problems, and I apologize to him for my squidly riding style on the way to the Marathon station, those are just too good of roads to be stuck behind cages! Thanks for posting those pics Pollux, next time I won't forget my camera! And wibornz, the Connie is awesome and I can't wait for spring to participate in the MI Photo Tag, who knows, there's still time yet this year. Thanks again everyone for going to Hell with me! You too Jeff!

lets see if I can remember.....

Left to Right..

Wibornz, he has a very nice Concours

Wibornz "Most Cooliest Father in Law" whos name eludes me at the moment  sorry...he has a sweet C90..

The best looking of the group, that would be me....lol with my Bird

Stripes, with the glass in his hand....possible drinking issue....i think it was coke.  Triumph ST

next in the kahkis is "TheRedOnes are faster", he is funny....reallly, also a Triumph ST(can you guess the color?)

I cannot remember the name of Redones buddy, sorry bout that, I believe he was on a Boulevard

and on the far left is D-Mac sharp FZ6.

the guy taking the pic is Jeff, his Huxton was the point of many droolls and comments from all.

hope this helps.

Now I have a headache, thinking sucks...

And hey had a great time. It is always fun getting together with fellow riders.  Love kicking lies and telling tires.  I even to a look at everyones chick strips to make sure they were worthy of being a sport tourer.  And you all passed... just had to make sure that there was no possers. hehehehehehe.

Great time at dinner and you all were a blast to talk with.  We will have to set up a group ride somewhere.

Still looking for my camera cord....I should have my pics up tomorrow.

Great ride on the way back! I've got some work to do if I'm gonna keep with with you guys though. I felt like a total noob...falling back through a turn, gunning it to catch up, and then carrying too much speed and over-braking into the next turn. I learned a lot just watching you guys handle the road and by the time we hit the end I think I was doing better. It's one thing to know what to do and clearly another to execute consistently.

I gotta do a track day next year....

This is my first attempt at posting. Hope it goes well. I had a great time in hell. The burger was excellent, the staff was very easy to look at, the ride was out of sight, and the guys I met were right on. In the pix I am called the too cool father in law. I have been riding off and on for about 52 years and I was reborn again the Saturday before. I bought my C-90T and a week and about 400 miles later I made the run. For all the guys I met, I am looking forward to the next run. also looking for phototag possibilities. Bigsmile Withstupid

Ok. Here are a few pics.....

First, my 'old school' GPS.
http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh178/D-Mac2008/my_gps.jpg

Gotta include a pic of my FZ6. I love this bike. Thumbsup
http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh178/D-Mac2008/fz6_oct_08.jpg

Here's the FZ6 cockpit.

I'd better throw in a couple of pics of my FIRST Yamaha. She gets jealous of the FZ6.....

A group photo in Hell. Just don't ask me who everyone is! God you guys are ugly.....
http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh178/D-Mac2008/hell_group.jpg

Nice C-14. I'd love one of these for long rides.
http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh178/D-Mac2008/c14.jpg

Blackbird that needs a bath. Sweeeeeet bike. Maybe a '99? (I don't think they had FI before then and it clearly says EFI on the side....correct me if I'm wrong here).
http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh178/D-Mac2008/bb.jpg

Thruxton. I chased this bike back to I-94. Sex on wheels IMO.
