Well, well, well.

With the ride starting at 12 noon, I would like to get as many X's together in one spot as possible. As I already said we should meet at the TGIF on Jog Road north of Southern Blvd at around 10:30. We can hang out a little, have a cup of coffee etc.... before heading around the corner to the fairgrounds. This is a small ride with only about 2000 to 3000 bikes give or take. It's not like the cluster in Fort Lauderdale.

We will be in the mid to back of the pack doing this but its ok as this is a small ride.

For the southern troops, we can meet at the BP station on Sample road east of 95 on the south side, at around 9:20, Kicks up at 9:30. Bring your Sun Pass. The TurnPike is the quickest easiest way to make the trip. If you don't have a sunpass, GET ONE, you need it anyway. Otherwise we will be forced to take 95 to the meeting point (YUK).

This is a sanctioned TOYS FOR TOTS ride so bring a new unwrapped toy or two or three.

Hey there Mike....making a correction for you here. The TGIF is on 441/SR 7....not Jog Road.

Looks like I'll have Momma on the back with me like last year.

I am at Coral Way and 127 Av, if you wish we could meet somewhere around and go together. Just make a few calculations on how long it's going to take us to ride to Sample R. I think one hour will be enough time, since the F. Turnpike practicaly empty on Sunday mornings. Let me know.

VTXLAZ

i have no idea how to get to sample road, i hope you do. just let me know the time and place.
it should take less than an hour to get up there so if we leave by 8 we will be fine.

batman

Laz & Loco, I95N to Sample Rd exit (I belive it's exit #36). You'll pass Atlantic Blvd then Copans Rd exits, get off 95 (next exit), Sample Rd, turn right go East about 500 yards or so, turn into the BP station on your right. I'd say it's about 35 miles from 826/ I95. If you want to run the turnpike get off Atlantic Blvd exit go east to I95 North get off Sample Rd. It's about 55 miles from Kendall. Laz, try and hold it down to 90.

BP station is just east of 95 on sample so you would be better off on 95 than turnpike. Maybe you should meet up with Batman he knows where it is and how to get there.

I can navigate pretty well without the GPS. We could also meet Batman somewhere in North Miami. Lets hear what he says.

How long have you lived in South Florida Laz? You need to get on that bike and ride all the way some times and explore my boy.

Lets ride Darn it!

12-05-2005, 11:47 PM
ok CL 7:45 at the latin american sounds good (107 and 24). We can take the palmetto from there and get to 95 all the way up to sample.

Batman, i think the GF is going so i'll make sure to keep it within the sound barrier.

Am I the only person without a sunpass. Where do you mount it if you do not have a windshield. :( If I go ,I can meet somewhere closer to the Park since it was mandated that ALL MUST HAVE A SUNPASS. Next it will be mandated that all HAVE A PATCH and VEST. :lol: Highlander :D

Anyways, you have to register any vehicle you are going to use it with. So if it doesn't work, they got the picture of your bike and match it with your account. Them they charge you any ways. Sometimes I forgot to take it and they charge me the same. Just make sure you have your bike registered with them(sunpass Co.) See 'ya Sunday.

TR didn't have a problem with the sunpass but it was a real test hiding a tire repair kit, one can of fix-a-flat and 4 CO2 cannisters.

TRforce
12-06-2005, 08:02 PM
I understand. If I don't get the Sunpass I can always run to the toll booth and catch up with the pack. I seldom use the toll system since I am working downtown Ft lauderdale

ok, there are many ways around the "sunpass" TR. i will tell ya how on sunday.

another friend of mine is coming (no sunpass either) and doubling up thru the toll works perfectly.

Hey LAZ,
