21st - Baltimore HD to the Fredricksville HD for the 1st ever CABO meeting. Hope that makes it official? Marlinrider still planning on meeting me to head over there? 22nd - All over MD and along 861 in PA. Picking up a guy with a Triumph to see what he can do with it. But it's an open invitation. 23rd - I really need to go check out "the circuit" down in VA. Might make my way as far as Nags Head, NC. But that trip is completely optional. Weather doesn't look great, but hopefully nice enough to get out and about. |

If you're coming to VA for then drop me a note and I'll take you on the 'guided' tour.. that way you won't have to try and read a map while riding Depending on when we get together, we could also find some other roads, or food.. or both.. |

Sounds great, I'll do it. I'll PM you my phone number and we'll set something up for Sunday. Hope it doesn't interfere with the nation-wide egg hunt. I might ride down a bit overdressed. Just bought a two piece race suit and need to get it broken in. But I'll bring some regular clothes too in case we wander back into civilization. |

Deltablue, I was just up in your neck of the woods today! Rode all through town twice and then headed down Rte 851 which has just become my new favorite road. I live a few miles from Churchville and I pass through there all the time. In the back of my mind I was trying to find a Buell dealer I passed on my trip out last Sunday. Didn't see it today, but that was probably because I was too busy thrashing to enjoy the scenery. Give me a shout when you're ready to run that route with me and we'll team up to tame some twisties. Blu, as soon as I hear back from Blublak we'll get you the info. If I don't hear back from him we'll just meet up near Quantico and go on our own. I'm up for anything this weekend. And wouldn't you know, I do have the hardest time keeping the damn thing clean. Seems I'm drawn to any type of road and nothing seems to deter me from going any ol' way I want to. (I LOVE my bike!) Right now it is reasonably clean, but right before I washed it off, it was looking more like a dirt bike. Once I knocked all the crud off it, it was still damn pretty though. Which means I KNOW I'll do it again. I'll never learn. |

Then how about this? Jct of US1 and VA619 at some time. Call it noon? I don't know the area so I can't just name a place, but I'm sure there's something very obvious right there. Maybe a nice big gas station or restuarant? A mall parking lot with a view of the road would be ideal. If you get there early make sure you park somewhere that your ride can be seen from the intersection and we should just gravitate towards anything that looks like a Buell. Or that could just be me that does that. Blublak, will that work for you too? It looks like a pretty good start point. And any other Buellers out there should try to stop by around that time and we'll all go terrorize the countryside. My number is 443-966-0844. Anyone charges some phone sex to my number is gonna pay in a big way. I guess I'll be the pivot guy for this particular circle jerk. I'll be rolling out around 9am from the house and should get there prior to noon. If you call, leave a message or text message if you're on the way and want us to wait for you. Check my profile for what my bike looks like so you'll know what to look for. I'll be in yellow and black leathers with an orange vest on, all kicked back and looking suave. See you there. By the way, I'm adopting this smiley as my new signature. |

Hmmmm... East Coast HD is not far from there.. just up Rt. 1 as I remember from there it's a short hop to Joplin Rd. we can run that up toward Manassas and then work our way either towards Sterling or West.. There are some good roads and just plain nice riding in both directions.. (also some sucky roads.. but that's the nature of the beast).. |

I'm planning on making the trip down. They are calling for 1 to 2 inches of snow starting this evening up this way, so I may not stick around for the whole meeting. |

Have I got a story for you... But you're all gonna have to hang on whilst I get it all typed out. It'll be worth a read. The story is out, follow the link on my profile and look for HighFive.pdf (Message edited by smiley1eye on March 26, 2008) |
