Title: yes I rode to day
Post by kenbent6 on Nov 28^th, 2009, 8:13pm

Went for a little ride today 11/28/09 will not give speed or avg. cause you will just laugh, BUT I had fun and that is what counts. Left from Segoville rd at Beltline and went the back roads to Hutchins then back roads to Lancaster, then back roads to Ferris, had a buger then back roads back to Segoville. If I say anything about the 25mph wind, some may think I crazy, but I had all day so why rush. Not only did I get 52 miles I saw a Roadrunner.

Nobody laughs, Ken... you got out there, and you enjoyed it, and that's what it's about!

I went to White Rock today looking to get a couple of laps in, it looked like I might miss the rain but it started up on the west side.

Funny now but going into the horseshoe (fast right turn after the first hill on the west side) I lost traction on the front tire and barely avoided laying it down. Had I not slowed down before that I would have been toast. Kojaks are great tires in the rain until they start squaring off after 4-5,000 miles then forget it. Super slow ride back to the truck and had a good conversation with.. Roger? (yellow Bacchetta)

Hate when I forget names

If he was a big guy, it was probably Grady B. on his Corsa SS.

It wasn't Grady, then. He lives in far East Dallas.

Well, hope you told said Bacchetta rider about RBENT!.

Sounds like a great ride, Ken - who cares about the speed so long as you enjoyed it! I've had as many great rides at 12 mph as I have at 20.
