Its just a gathering of folks who wanna ride. No points involved. You just find Joe or somebody else there, tag along and ride some beautiful country while riding the rollercoaster of elevation changes. Hint: sometimes there is a turn or sharp curve just as you crest the hill.
And if you want to fill up your calendar with similar events, just go here....
Picked it up from the first valve check at just shy of 40,000 miles. All were in spec.... still feel better having had it done. Washed it for the first time in a month of rainy riding. I think it’s probably a pound lighter.
I got suited up, put the sun shield on my helmet, disconnected the battery tender, and turned the bike on to nothing. Stupid switch on the battery tender got knocked over to 6V.
Guess I'll find out later if I need a new battery.

Sorry to hear that. At least you correctly diagnosed the problem as a stupid switch.
Woohoo...managed to get 185 miles of two wheeled therapy in. Sunny and 45 when I left, sunny and 47 when I got home, although most of the ride was overcast, and it never actually reached the predicted high of 53, it still was a great day.

Installed the new LED's. Pretty simple although a bit tight working on the right side and difficult to get the boot off.
"THIS" looks like a blast for sure. I believe you live close enough where you can make a day ride out of a trip there. That would be a good feeling when you ask yourself where to ride today and you can shoot up to that area for lunch and some good photos like those or just make a loop ride through there for the day. I always look forward to my 3 day weekends there multiple times a year. About a 130 miles from my home so if I am going to make that ride I might as well stick around awhile. Hard to leave after 3 days as there is so many riding choices. Never gets old.
Not very surprised the photographers were out on your ride. I was staying up there in late Oct and heading home on a cold morning with big rain in the forecast for the whole day. The rain was right on our doorstep and we hoped to outrun it. We planned to head out through the Gap and then FH's Pkwy. There was nobody at the Gap. Total Deadsville. I thought the world was coming to an end and I was the only one who did not know it The photographers were out that day too. I think we woke them up when we came around the corner. As soon as the the weather looks good for a couple days I am heading that way. Can't wait.
