Author Message   Crusty Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 07:37 pm:        Any of you North East Buellers interested in meeting for lunch at the Vanilla Bean Cafe in Pomfret, CT?   Ulynut Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 07:45 pm:        Saturday or Sunday?   Cataract2 Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 08:02 pm:        Yup. Taking my XB out after fixing the gaskets on the engine.   Crusty Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 08:28 pm:        Dan; I'm flexible. If Saturday is better, I'd be happy to meet then. If Sunday's better, that's good too. I plan to put some miles on this weekend; it's been a long winter.   Ulynut Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 08:32 pm:        Lets go for Sunday then. Saturday will be a busy day for me.   Speedfreaks101 Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 09:12 pm:        I see you have it pretty bad, its only going to be mid sixties this weekend here. I hate cold weather. It really sucks living in Texas   Crusty Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 09:20 pm:        O.K., Sunday sounds good. Anybody else interested?   Damnut Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 10:53 pm:        If I can get the Blast (ignition module) running I may join, the XB isn't registered right now.   Froggy Posted on Thursday, March 04, 2010 - 11:16 pm:        50 degrees? I might need to break out the mesh gear! I will see you guys there whenever you figure out a date and time (I'm open)   Crusty Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 07:23 am:        Sunday. How about 1:00 P.M.? The food there is pretty good, and the place is a gathering point for all kinds of motorcycles. Nice roads in the area, as well. Last time Terri and I were there, we saw a 1913 Norton and a Vincent. If the weather is as nice as the weatherman is calling for, the joint should be jumping.   Glitch Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 07:46 am:        I love Spring!   Scotty_j Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 10:47 am:        In.   Ulynut Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 02:53 pm:        1:00. I'm there.   Daveswan Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 07:27 pm:        I would be but I have family plans both days... joy   Brumbear Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 07:42 pm:        I'd love to go but A.) I can't get my bikes out of the shed yet and B.) I am actually still a little tender for a 2 hr ride might be a bit much just yet. Have a great time fella's   Danger_dave Posted on Friday, March 05, 2010 - 07:58 pm:        >>I love Spring! << Northern NZ never gets that cold - even Mid Winter. Hardly ever goes over 80 in summer either. Rains quite a lot is the bummer - although not lately - just had the driest Feb on record.   Skinstains Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 12:12 am:        Hey Nut, just swap the plates and don't crash.   Damnut Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 08:41 am:        They are both Black.............   Scotty_j Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 04:44 pm:        Out. Just gave the bike a bath and discovered a leaky fork on the brake side. Crap.   Crusty Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 04:50 pm:        I just got back from a ride around central Mass. on secondary roads. Roads are mostly clear, but there are a few unexpected patches of sand here and there. I recommend that anybody riding out to the Vanilla Bean exercise a little bit of restraint in their corner speeds. Also; I saw a shitload of cops with cars pulled over. Watch your speed on the straight stretches as well. See you all at 1:00 tomorrow!   Brumbear Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 04:51 pm:        Hey I at least got to tool around for an hour on my old KZ 1000 that was fun but all city as I was at work.   Blake Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 05:21 pm:        72oF per the front porch thermometer right now. Camellias, daffodils, and saucer magnolias are blooming, trees are budding, Springtime is here in Kilgore, Texas! At last!   Danger_dave Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 05:26 pm:        Perfect Sunday here and I'm inside doing the ground work on a new business. Coisses. Might go for a quick stop after lunch.   Johnnylunchbox Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 05:31 pm:        74% chance that I'll make it.   Ulynut Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 05:37 pm:        74 ???   Whatever Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 05:43 pm:        Last time I tried to ride in March I had a little mishap...   Froggy Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 07:54 pm:        All my Buells expect my 1125R are registered as red, I swapped the plates around because of my EZpass, and even getting pulled over was no issue as the cop only sees that its a red Buell. Good thing he didn't know no 1125CR's were made in 06   Danger_dave Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 09:13 pm:        87.3% of statistics are made up on the spot. 100% is the probability I will use that gag again.   Scotty_j Posted on Saturday, March 06, 2010 - 09:30 pm:        There are lies, there are damn lies, and then there are statistics. -Mark Twain   Ducxl Posted on Sunday, March 07, 2010 - 03:56 am:        Have a safe and fun day fellers.Wish i could ride but Sunday is my MONEY day.I'm working. For the eastbound riders coming up 84,our westernmost portion of our 'Bean loop is at exit 71.If you take it,turn left at the end of the exit onto Turnpike road for the gnarliest portion of our NEBO loop.Stay straight on this road till you reach dirt.Turn right here.Stay on this road(going over BUELL hill(seriously,Buell orchards nearby too) until you reach the Ford dealer.Straight across the intersection by the side of the dealer you'll turn right on the sweeping left hander about a mile or less.Immediately after the "Bowl" right hander turn left at the stopsign.The 'Bean is a few miles on the left. Or whatever.....Have FUN.Be safe
