Hmmm...Posted this in the archived thread by the same name, but it still didn't come out of archive. Is a thread permanently archived once it drops off the main page? Anyway, here's my post. It's been quite a while, but I thought I'd give the Pittsburgh thread a much needed "BUMP". Most of the people I was riding with have either moved (3 gone; to Atlanta, Chicago, Memphis) or had to sell their bike (1 lost job, 1 expecting twins and already has 2 kids). Outlook is bleak for me riding in groups, unless I can stir up a few interested folks... |

Ponti1, I am a new 1125R owner living in Grove City, Pa. I have a whopping 50 miles on her so far! I'm looking forward to some warmer weather so I can really get to know the bike and get past the 600 mile break-in! Bruce |

Hey, if folks want to meet up from anywhere within "x" distance, that's cool in my book! I am about 35 miles from downtown, but it's the closest metro area to me. I'm thinking if the thread were restricted to folks living within city limits, you may be in here talking to yourself |

I was in Cleveland this weekend and saw a ton of bikes downtown on Sunday morning, but couldn't tell what sort of event was going on. Most of the bikes were cruisers, but I saw a red/gold Firebolt there, too. (Message edited by ponti1 on April 21, 2009) |

I'm in Monroeville. I know it's not in the city but I drive through the city twice a day.... Anyway, I'll be at Denny's on Sunday. Went a couple of years ago and had a good time. Tim |

Wishing I had Sunday free, but already committed to other plans. I hear the burger run is pretty good. |

Hi folks! My S2 and I will be in Pittsburgh this Saturday. I would like to explore the roads for a couple of hours. Any good suggestions on roads from the locals? Any goo Buell dealers around which could be visited? Thanks a lot for any suggestion. Looking forward to some curves!!! |

Not exactly in PA, but close enough. Route 250 in WV is one of my favorites in the area. Check this one out if you get a chance... http://tinyurl.com/WV250 |

Not sure if you have noticed or not, but I posted up the dates for the 2010 version of the Res Ride in Altoona, PA at the top of the Storm Front page. Come one, come all for some great rides, great friends and great food! |

Dead, or just "sleeping"? I still have mine, though I have only had a chance to ride her a few times in the last month. Seems to be a slim handful of Buellers in the area. Not sure about your experiences, but I have only ever seen maybe four or five on the road in the three years I have had mine. |

Pretty slim pickings around here for Buellers. There was one at Quaker Steak and Lube (in Cranberry) last Thursday (they have a bike night on Thursdays). I'm not getting rid of mine!!! Patiently waiting for an Erik Buell Racing variant of the Uly |
