I am tentatively in.  I may be leaving on a week-long work trip that day (which will pay for new tires and much more), but if the trip falls through I'll be there.

The two guys to the far right are ugly enough to be brothers.  Razz

I'm a very distant maybe on this one. Got a couple of birthday events coming up, so I'll see how it goes.

As long as the weather report is not too bad and it's not raining when I have to leave, I'll be there. How's that for being a wuss.

Sounds fine - I'm not running it in the rain again (well the actual ride was dry, but getting to and from it was no fun at all).

If time permits we're going to do a quick photo shoot for some action shots.  So if you've ever wanted a good pic of yourself on the bike this is your chance.  Here's some from last time I did photos:

Until you do, I put this one up on my desktop, for a day or two anyway.  Nice pic.

So that's how you CARVE a corner on a Sportster, huh?

Believe it or not, that wasn't actually dragging there. I think the angle or height of the camera is misleading there. That whole run, mid-pack with a bunch of Busas, I only touched down each footpeg once. I am all over the place with body position. Thumbsup

Here's the whole corner... notice the kick-ass line selection Bigsmile I've had to be really conscientious about late entry/late apexing and starting way outside because sometimes ( believe it or not Bigsmile ) that bike just doesn't wanna lean any more in certain turns. Wink All in all I'm pretty happy with how well it'll take a turn on the street. I would probably die in a fiery crash on the track.  Lol

I always wondered how PennDOT put those grooves in the road surface;  Now I know, it's from Sportsters dragging thier kickstands around corners.

Sorry chornbe, I don't really believe you, sure looks like contact in the photo.  Pictures don't lie, you know.

Besides, I've seen the sparks coming off on 82.   Lol

I really wanted to follow chornbe around 82 again on his slow/old/spark throwing sportster( Lol), but other commitments are staking up.  My plan now is to finish everything by early Sunday and meet up at the stop before the Delaware bridge.  Put me down as a possible for the second half.  I'll have a better idea by Sat night...
