I believe that on Tuesday, if the weather is good here and up to the Beach, I may have to go for a ride.
I am tired of this wet stuff and only getting 20 -30 mile ride before it pours again.
So you guys get your work and chores caught up and let's head North and get together with our old Syracuse friends and the new ones that we have been chatting with here on this site.
I am sure Mick & Russ have been tinkering and trying to put that shiny silver stuff on there dull rides.
(I don't blame you guys I love Silver and it is so fast.)
So Ed and trajun think about it and let's make some plans. kfc if you are out there and any one else here in Bingo Town.
Speak Up and Let's Roll. Tros
Tros, sounds cool, but I've already got some time off coming up for the Americade, sounds like ditching work for a ride next week is probably out of the question. Man, this working for a living really puts a damper on spending quality time with my bike :evil: :evil: .

So, now I'm blacklisted along with Paul? I'm extremely hurt that you go out of your way to mention specifically Mick, Russ, Ed, kfc, and Trajun in your post. Wah Wah Wah ... blah .. blah ... blah
keep me posted. If Trajun and Paul are in the group I'll need a 1/2 hour head start to try to arrive with you in Sylvan Beach ... :shock:

Did you run out of Adderol today? You are just so Hyper Relax the rain will pass.
We can send Paul and Trajun ahead to clear the roads and scout. Hopefully Mick will be there to bail them out with his "influence".
Where should we meet you guys? And should we take Rt. 13 from Cortland right to Sylvan?
Herb I am not sure what they got open up there maybe one of the guys like OniedaX or somebody could give us a clue.
I would like to be there around 2:00 when everything is suppose to begin. That way we get back in some daylight.

Herb, (I don't want to leave you or Paul out)(we will give you a 2 hour headstart)
Ed, (you pie-eyd what ever they called you)
trajun, (will you be around Tuesday PM)
Mick, (you said you had this PM off already right)
High Exalted Wattage King(you can give us a 2 hour headstart, and still save us some space)
Do we have any more takers living around the Bingo, Endicott, Apalachin, Chenango Forks or Valley, Cortland, Marathon, Oneonta, Freeville, Greene, Bainbridge, anyone in these areas want to go chime in and be heard.

Still alive, but workin crazy hours, haven't had a chance to get on here. Might have to be delayed on going up there, I'm not as much of a freebird as I first thought, my kids have a baseball game that night, so that takes priority. I'm lookin at 2 weeks from now on the 6th to go, maybe incorporate that with a scoot up to Lake George? Give me the recon on the women to men ratio, so I know how much to shine up my RED chick magnet. Have fun.

Tros. noon would be pushing it for me....I work 7pm-7am and then drive to Bingo and dont get home untill 0930-1000. But I will think about it, and iiv for some reason I do not work on Monday...then yeha.

trajun, just work 8 hrs and come home early, you got enough money anyway, i can tell buy looking at your bike. Or just sleep while your at work like usual and suck up the overtime. I have a friend thats looking for a 1300 and is interested in your bike, let me know how much if your ready to get that 1800.

trajun Hey I just want to get there and spend some quality time and get home before dark. I believe it will take a couple of hours either way. What time would be good for you

05-21-2006, 09:36 PM
Ed what's new? did you get the windshield yet? Anything else that you have added? I do have those GP plates if that is what you want to do. I got 38,000 miles and things have been good so far, I just struggle with changing any thing now.
VTX ED
05-21-2006, 09:51 PM
tros, the windshield didn't get here yet, i think they shipped it by stage coach and it comming from Washington, i hope it gets here tomorrow so i can put it on before Tuesday. I do want the GP plates, just haven't had the chance to get them from you, won't have time to put them in right away so i will get them when i see you. I have a set of Vance & Hines quiet baffels comming to see what they do for the sound of my pipes, i'm happy with the sound now but maybe i can make it better. How is your new tires doing in all this rain?

05-21-2006, 10:02 PM
Try to avoid the rain as much as I can. But I like the tires I will know better after a good long ride.
trajun

Would love to join in, but at this time I would have to pass. I need some sleep. Ed, I dont' think my patients would do that well without me. If things change I will get hold of you guys.

OK, While not ideal wonderful bikini weather, it will be fine to ride tomorrow. I, personally, am sick of this rain and looking to take a nice ride. Where am I meeting all who are riding to Sylvan Learning Center? Dryden? Cortland? What time?
Like I said, I get off work at noon. Let's solidify. Can't wait to hear Ed's Cobras.

If I get there tomorrow, will not be til early evening d/t work schedule. If you guys go, I hope you have a great time. Weather is supposed to be great. I will definetly go the following Tuesday 30th as I am off from work that day.
Please consider getting home before dark. I have been seeing tons of deer standing at the edges of the road right at dusk. Be safe, if I make it I'll look for the VTX's. Can't miss 'em.

05-22-2006, 11:42 AM
Let's meet in Cortland at the Wendy's, Rt. 81 exit and on Rt. 13 if I am not mistaken. Rt.13 goes right to Sylvan Beach. See you guys there around 12:45 - 1:00 PM. We will wait to about 1:15 and we will head up 13 north if any one wants to catch up to Herbie.
Ed are you a go on this? I can meet you at 12:00 noon in front of Home Depot the empty parking lot by there sign. That OK with you?
Is that OK with everyone? Tros
Herbie
05-22-2006, 12:07 PM
Okay by me ....
Tros ... if Russ and I aren't there .. just proceed up 13 ... follow the 'triple' wrappers, french fry containers, and empty Frosty cups .... you should be able to find us ...

05-22-2006, 12:10 PM
Herb,
I'll be at your place at 12:30-12:40ish. Be ready to rock. Tros, Ed, see you at 1:00ish Wendy's. And away we go!
No one else?
Herbie
05-22-2006, 12:21 PM
By 'my place' .. you mean NYSEG building, right? Or my house?
Russ Ithaca VTX
05-22-2006, 12:30 PM
Why, are you leaving directly from work? I was thinking of your house. I'll need to gas up and get some jingles in my pocket. From your house we can certainly be at Wendy's by 1:00. ISH.
