NICE! I bet that thing rides like a centerfold! Let's go this weekend. Are you going to break it in?
My boss just got a KLR650 and we were already planing on going. He lives down the street (and wants a evil gun but has not made the commitment).
Let's roll!

Am I going to break it in this weekend? Well, HELL YES, unless the world suddenly comes to an end.

I get off work at 0800 Thursday morning. I'm going straight to Rockingham and putting 2 of these beasts on a trailer. From there, I'm off to Charlotte, to drop one of them off at my brother's house. Then to the house to unload mine, masturbate furiously, then go riding.

I may just take Sunday night off, to make it a 4 day weekend.

Can you tell I'm a little excited?

If you and your bud want to ride the parkway, I can meet you at the Pilot Mountain exit on 52, if you're going that way. If not, I could meet you somewhere else.

Let's make this happen!!!

Hey, let me know if you want to take a ride down the Blueridge Parkway. I got a KLR 650 a few months back. You could always bring some guns too. I got a MAC now. Maybe a ride out twards Lake Lure, to the range.

Lets do it. My boss is not in yet and he's got a KLR650 too Bruh. When he gets in we will get a time to meet up. How does Mt. Pilot sound? I am sure 350 could do that

.

I got the OK from the wife too!

Bruh where you at?

350= Mt. Pilot
ME / Boss (Jeff)=Winston-Salem

One of these days we need to meet up and hit the "Dragons Tail"

bruh is near Asheville. By the time he got here, he would be beat to death, and ready to swear off riding forever! Well, maybe not, he's younger than I am, and in better shape.

It would be well worth our time for us to ride up and see bruh. Take my word for it.

I can find a backback for ammo for the Mac, and some bungees for some other stuff.

Discuss freely. I'll post pics tomorrow, if I'n not out riding.

Got a toothpick?

Jeff and I were thinking further down the parkway would be a nicer ride. I'm up to it. How does the weather look?

Where along the parkway?

Asheville is a good haul. How about ride up to Fancy Gap then down to 421 back home?

That sounds like a good trip! Count me in, unless bruh wants to get together. I sent him an IM. Maybe we'll get lucky and we'll all get an invite.

If you guys want to ride Fancy Gap/ BRP/421, my house is only 9 miles from the 52 and 268 interchange. I have a grill and a stove. I know the back roads between my house and the BRP at the NC/VA line.

No matter which way we go, we'll have a damn good time!

Torque. Lots of it.

I'll try to reduce the size of the pics my brother took, so I can post them.

Picked up 2 new red 2003 VTX1800's in Rockingham Thursday morning. Delivered one to my brother just north of Charlotte, drove home, and unloaded mine. These things have a truly scary amount of low end grunt.

Want a 2003 VTX1800 for $8295, out the door, tax, tag and title included, or $7,995 for outside NC buyers?

CONTACT KEITH COVINGTON-DEALERSHIP #910-582-4528 OR CELL # 910-206-2647.

Call him. My brother and I took delivery of 2. $8,295 each, out the door.

Keep this link cold, please.

Sorry all, I haven't checked this thread in a while. Yeah, I'm definately up for a ride. I live about 30 seconds from the parkway. I have weekends off all through September. And yeah, you guys are invited here, thats totally cool with me. If you wanna go shooting too, thats doable too, but I'm not sure I can use the same range. I haven't spoken to the guy who owns it in a while. But I do know of another place to shoot, it's just not as cool. I'd be willing to come meet you guys someplace too. Let me know whats up.

Well, I went riding Saturday. I tried Sunday too, but it didn't last long. It was too windy.

So who's up for a ride this weekend?

Posted: 9/7/2004 9:03:14 PM EDT

Man, I would love to ride this weekend. Too bad I have to work.

Weather permitting, I'll ride to work.

That looks EVIL! Lets go riding! Last weekend I met a couple that owns a small shop. They invited me to come out to an airport that they are friends with the owner of. He is shutting the airport down for races.
We are meeting up a Kernersville @ 3:00 Sunday.
