Let's go get cold.

Hey guys. :hellobye Just wanted to get something together to help everyone keep in touch a little while it’s cold. Too chilly to get the bikes out on the road so let’s go feed our adrenalin desirers with some snow boarding. WOOOOOHOOOOOOO, nothing like going face first into the icy white death at 40 mph. It’ll be at Paoli Peaks. They should start making snow sometime after December 1st. i let everyone know when. It’ll be from 11pm till 6am I think. Ski pass and board and boot rentals should come up to a total of around 45 bucks. Let me know if you’re in.

i'll take that as a no.

Hey sweet thing... i'll plan on going! Of course, i'll have to wait until it gets closer to see about work, other plans, etc... but it definately sounds like a good time!! I got beat up on two wheels in the woods today... Now, i've never even been on skis in the snow, so i will probably get hurt.... but thats ok... im really a pretty tough chic!! LOL I water ski, so maybe that will help just a little... maybe not, but oh well, its cool..... always up to learn new things! Nobody else is interested in going???? Is everyone in here.... sissies?? LOL, JP... i do hope that more people go though.... it will be fun, and everyone needs some good ways to keep in touch over the winter, right?? (Besides partying, drinking, etc... because i can't legally do all that:( ) Anyways.... hope to see at least some of you boys there! The ones that aren't SCARED:scared that is!!

Sweet thing??? I’m a sweet thing??? cool.:jump And here I thought I was being ignored by everybody. I never could water ski, and I was the fat kid that just sat on the skateboard and rolled down the hill and still fell off. You can bet your sweet ass that once I can get some speed up I’ll be pulling the bike helmet out and trying some stupid shit. It’ll be fun. Hell, I may just bring the leathers and try dragging a knee. My guess is the most I’ll accomplish is to drag my as though. Worse comes to worse I’ll just huddle around the fire place with a bottle and just get hammered.:beer If we can get enough people together we may be able to get some group rates on rooms too. Hook me up with some dirt bike riding too. Done it around a yard one time. That’s it. See y’all later

Love on the board...., lol Anyway, I've been skiing once, and I sucked, and some kid on a board cut me off when I finally went down a "blue square" run, I jumped the bank, and put a deep bruise that lasted 3 weeks in my groin - I landed on a sprinkler head - close fawkin' call - lol I'm game though..., details when it gets closer are needed, and I'll prolly spend more time at the bar than falling, but it's all good. and I'll have to keep away from u 2 - he he he...

I would, but its kinda far. Ya know :(

Love on the forum? I’m sure it’s only talk.:bs Or is it? With a little luck she’ll be kind enough to let me know before I make an absolute fool of myself. Although I am a professional at that.:bash Bad news man. No bar. It’ll be a bring your own bottle kinda night.:beer A few drinks though and you’ll be ready to take that sprinkler head on again. Just point it out before I get there. I have some hardware down there.:thumbup Bad enough to hit it but I would hate to hook and rip. They are planning on starting to make snow at the first of December. Should be around mid-December before they are ready to let us hurt ourselves. Once I get the word though I’ll post it and PM everyone. :hellobye

Can't board worth a shit...I ski though. Depending on if you guys will tollerate a skier I'm game, that is unless you are just gonna sit on the half pipe all day. Love on the forum??? Wouldn't be the first time...

Our1...it's a little over 5 hours to my house man, if thats not too far for you, you are more than welcome to crash at my house for the night.

Originally posted by yoderbike I make an absolute fool of myself. Although I am a professional at that.:bash I know about that all too well myself - good times though! BYOJack..., that's cool..., Now that I think about it, I wonder how many bottles I could fit in a camel pack..., hmmm.... :D

you can get three. maybe a little coke but why waist the space. right? did that camping one time. i didn't last too long. i remember looking up at the tree tops with my body just pressing on that pack pumping more wild turkey into me. okay, i'm ready to go camping now. who's setting up the camping trip? and who's taking care of my hammered ass.

I'm all about camping too...just not too inclined to be taking care of anyone...since I would prolly need the assistance too.

Holy shiat..., too damn funny :D :D :D ..., that visual just made my rather hellish day much better..., still laughing....

Hook me up with some dirt bike riding too. Done it around a yard one time. That’s it. See y’all later [/B] Anyone up for some dirt bike riding - say at Attica or someplace more local to Indy? Be fun if we could get 5-6 people to come out for a day and bust our asses. I have a trailer and can haul my bike along with one more. Anyone?

I have a trailer and can haul my bike along with one more. Anyone? Always up for a day in the woods!!!! I'm busy all this weekend, but besides that, I NEVER would turn down an offer to go ride!! That is if you dont mind waiting for me all day LOL! Just started riding this year, so I'm definately no pro yet!! Was told I have a 'natural talent' though!! I can make it thru everything, it will just take me a little longer! You know... I gotta psyche myself up for some stuff LOL! Plus all of the times I have to pick up my bike.... so anyways... if you dont mind waiting on a girl.... I'm always game to get beat up by the DR!!

I am game for Paoli... been there a couple of times. fun at night. Seems like a long time from the Indi folks houses. I can get there in 6 hours from Alabama. Keep the date posted. Chris

i'll let you know when i know. best i can say thus far is mid-december. i'm up for dirt bikes too. but... ummmm. i kind of need a dirt bike. can i borrow yours??? worse comes to worse i could change the tires out on the R1.?.?.?.

Originally posted by yoderbike worse comes to worse i could change the tires out on the R1.?.?.?. Hey, they did it in Torque...why can't you. Hell, just go all the way and put the plastics from your bike on a KTM and then you'll be really cool. :)

yo yo yo....i am definitely up for some boarding. Sabian...my wife skis, so you can ski with her and the girls..jk, lol. Sorry it took me so long to post, but things have been really busy. Anytime after the 15th of Dec. I am game (exams end on the 15th). Paoli is about 2hrs from Fishers, so not too bad. Yoder, i thought the SuperSchlong Titanium Extendable Replacement Penis was indestructible? damn shame about that fireworks accident. lol. I will keep checking this post as it gets closer, but count Courtney and I in for sure. ttyl

Biatch....ski with your woman and kids???? Man, I should smack you. Have her bring a single, sexy ski bunny, and then we can talk. :)

Zach, I may be able to accomodate you on that request...that way they can ski together while I board (she isnt very good yet and I have been boarding for 10 yrs.).

You know a ski bunny? Hmmm....my new best friend...

damn dude, if you're playing match maker bring a third one. i will try to set it up after the 15th though. yeah, the fireworks thing was kind of rough. the package said they would really blow. i failed to read the warning label though. not quite the blow i had in mind at the time. but it's back in action. couldn't aford the titanium set up so i'm just working with steel for the time being. not too bad but i have to sand the rust off from time to time. feels pretty good with the 800 grit wet sand. can't wait till my grinder gets here. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. hell, i've shorted out three Dremmel tools so far.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. hell, i've shorted out three Dremmel tools so far. OMG, come on now, some of us are trying to eat here. Lets change the subject...back to ski bunny's and finding some for me and Yoder.

Hell, if it's ski bunnies ya want..., I'll have to make some calls back to the D and see if some of my friends wanna go. They can be picky..., but once you're in, you're in..., oh, and at the last party they looked pretty good in PJs :rock

Hell, at the present time, I'll take anything. :) Though it would be nice to find someone with two brain cells a and personality consiting of more than a peice of drift wood....as well as looks. Anyone got plans for Friday night? I'm looking for something to do...anyone up for grabbing a beer or hitting a club...somthing? I hate being the new guy in town.... I sound desperate don't I. Eh, oh well. Hit me up.

Change the subject? What, you don’t like talking about my penis? Come on. The little guy likes the extra attention. (Don’tcha little buddy???) I’ll post some pictures when my new zoom lense gets here. Keep your eyes open for them and don’t check at dinner time. :ugh Damn, got this far off track because I guy racked him self on a sprinkler head.

OMG... it's December already!!! And cold outside:( Any idea what day i'm going to beat myself up in the snow yet?? Definately having withdrawals from the street riding!! The dirtbike helps a little, but thats a totally different ballgame! Anyways, just browsing around and curious if there is a better idea of when I get to bruise myself up on the white stuff.

I am wondering the same thing....whats the plan?

hey, here i thought everyone forgot about it. they started making snow on dec. first. as soon as they get a 12 inch base we are good to go. i'm guessing a few weeks from now. but i will post it and pm everyone as sson as i find out. i'll call the people that i have the phone numbers of. anyone going on the deals gap trip june 13-19th? as of now i'm going to room in a cabin with some guess from florida that i don't know from adem. if a few people can comit quick we can get into a cabin for the week and split the cost. ride all day and nurse a keg all night. pass out an do it again. could it get any better than that? let me know.

oh, nichole. i stood all the way up the other day. damn, it seems like your a mile high up there. i didn't stay up long but i was pumped anyway.

I'm all about going to the Gap...problem is..I dont' plan that far ahead. I don't know what I'll be doing. But for now, count me in.

Nice Mike!!! A few more times and you'll be riding it 'til she stops!! (OK, maybe not until she stops, but close..LOL) Be careful though! Remember.... any wind... forget about it! I've scared myself more than once! I'm definately game for the gap.... that is if i 1) get a new bike and have enough time to get used to it before then or 2) get the gs fixed back to top notch! Definately thinking it will be opt. 1, but i'm going to have to see how the $ goes. So, I can't make any definate plans right now, but would LOVE to go!! I have a couple of friends that went like 5 times this year! I was supposed to go with my dad back in july..... but, we wont go there.:( He knows a pretty cheap place right outside of the gap to stay, I'll talk to him and find out some details if u want me 2.

Hey, SG what do you think your price range will be for a new bike? I can keep a look out for rides and let you know as they come up. That or, have you thought of doing a rebuild? Take a wrecked bike, something maybe that has just been lowsided or similar and repainting with new plastics and such. You can usually save a couple hundred/thousand dollars this way. I've done it before with friends, and if' you'd need help, you always have us to give it to ya.

Sabian makes a great point...I got my wife a 2000 Suzuki SV650S back in 2002 for $1800. It needed a crankcase cover, handlebar ends, a few plastics, and a new front rim (yes, we checked out the forks and they were perfect). Total cost of new parts and a metallic purple paint job from a professional paint shop (not Earl Schieb or anything like it)=~$600. So what was $6000 new ended up costing us $2400. Best thing was it had 18 original miles on it, thats it. We put sliders all around and lowered it with longer dog bones (she is 5'4"), and she loved it. Pretty fun bike. Anyway, those are my 2 cents. The gap sounds great, but I cant commit without knowing my exam schedule for summer classes, which wont come out until later in the Spring. I definitely want to go though, and wish I could commit now.

Well I’ll let you know as soon as I find out about the snow trip and you guys let me know as soon as you find out about the gap. The sooner the better. As of now I’ll be rooming with a guy. It’ll be about 150 a night but if we can get about 6 or so more people it’ll only be 20 bucks a night. Super cheap trip to the gap. Can’t beat that. Plus his cabin will be right in the middle of the action. That’s were they’ll be grilling out and where the kegs will be set up. it’ll definitely be a good time. And Ryan, what I used to do when I was in school and needed to go out of town for any reason. Tell them that you are headed to Tennessee for a few interviews. Of course I didn’t have the rigors of law school. But either way, you’re preparing for your future. They can’t knock you for that. Nichol, I may be getting a track bike in the next few months. It may not be real pretty but you may be able to ride it if you don’t have anything else. But I would require that you be DAMN careful.

Wow...yoder is gonna let someone borrow a bike for a gap run....you in love Yoder?

I did the Gap nine times last year and have access to some cheap places to stay - be happt to set up a copuple of trips for the Indy clan if you all wanna go. Suzuki Girl - A buddy of mine has a shop in Greenwood that buys crashed and repo bikes and then repairs themn for resale. Much cheaper than new and he has about 20 bikes right now. You can even tell him what bike you want and he'll find one for you. I can help ya with refurbishing your existing bike if it needs it. Always lokking for projects to do over the winter. I was thinking of going to Attica on the dirt bikes on Sunday (Dec 5th) - anyone else? Eric

Earache, that shop you mention, is it about 2 miles south of main street?I have heard of this place, and never found it. I am interested in finding a wrecked bike and building a track bike out of it and would like to talk to this guy.

I am interested in finding a wrecked bike and building a track bike out of it and would like to talk to this guy. Yup - www.sportbikecenter.com It's kinda hard to find as he's in a small industrial building. I'dbe happy to meet you someplace and show you how to get there if you can't finmd it. Ask for Reuben at 317 / 535-0081 Eric

Earache, not sure where you are in Indy, but depending on what you are doing tomorrow, if you want to come down to greenwood I'm free after about 1:30 or so. It would be cool to meet ya too since I don't think you were on that ride late in the season.

Hell...according to their map....the shop is like 2 miles from my house, if that.

Sabian and Ryan.... I know... I would love to get a bike that needs some work and make a winter project out of it!!! Wish I had the money right now. Looks like the only thing I'll be able to work on this winter is the gs. Looking to buy another bike Feb- early spring. And no, not new.... obviously, I dont need to spend too much money on a bike quite yet! LOL Probably looking to spend $35 to $5... i dunno. Just something with 4 cylenders (sp?) LOL One of my buddies has an r6 for $39, not actually for sale, so he could still have it then. Definately thinking a 600 though. Mike.... thanks for the offer.... I dont know if I would even be comfortable on someone else's bike at the gap... but that's something we can both think about when time gets closer..lol... You may have a change of heart about the situation by then! I have wrecked twice this year, I wouldnt blame you!!! I wouldn't let me borrow a bike for the gap if I was someone else..lol... maybe for a little ride or something. But anyways, something we can both think about if it is necessary when time gets closer. Eric..... Where is Attica?... Up north? I'm always up for a day in the woods!!! Chit... scratch that, have to work... oh well, maybe another time. Thanks for the offer of help on the gs... I think I can take care of everything myself though. And what I need help on, my dad is here to help. Thanks anyways, i appreciate it. We will definately have to go tear up the woods sometime together!! Always looking for new riding buddies. Getting some new boots for Christmas... I think its the only girl boot out there LOL I get so frustrated looking at gear, dirt and street!! Not much of a selection for us female riders LOL! Anyways... now that I have written 2 pages in a post I think I will end with that! Hope everyone is doing well!!

Originally posted by Sabian Hell...according to their map....the shop is like 2 miles from my house, if that. It is real close to you!!.... go to main street.... turn Left at first light West of 65 (Sheek rd.).... take that to stop 18, only turns Right (the rd. looks like the entrance to a housing edition, but its not).... take stop 18 to the light at 31, turn Left. It is on the Right past the McDonalds and Kroger.... Set off from the road a little.... if you get to the light in whiteland (Tracy Rd), you went too far!

Eric

I'd love to get a wreck-bike and tweak it, way fun..., well, I guess my baby still needs an new nose anyway - lol. Yoder, I'm with sabian..., it's hard enough to remember plans I have for tomorrow let alone next spring. I'd love to go, and want to, but I'll be last minute. Sabian, may be going last minute wit ya! lol..., can't be too bad..., if we had to stay further away, all it means is more miles through TN/NC mountains..., and the problem is...???

Originally posted by Sabian Wow...yoder is gonna let someone borrow a bike for a gap run....you in love Yoder? :2bitchsla far from love. you know a real man NEVER falls in love.:ugh hell, the only time i've seen her was the ride from Nashville a few months ago. plus i'm rather atatched at the moment. probably will be for a while. but it'll be a track bike and it'll be pretty cheap and pretty well set to ride. i would assume if i was there she would be smart enough not to do anything too stupid. if it's wrecked, no huge deal. i'm not putting any more money in it than i have to. it'll be ugly. i am going to put race plastic on it later, paint it real brite yellow, and put "**** the police" accross the side. but i'll wait till i smash the plasic up on it too bad to duct tape up before i buy anything for it. it has 56 teeth on the rear sprocket too. it wont take long for me to lay it down a few times myself. trust me, slideing it on it's side now wont make it look one bit worse than it already does. just being nice and willing to offer what i can to get the numbers up.

well the cabin i'll be at will be the party spot. BEER, food, BEER grill(s),BEER, think well have some beer there too. ride all day, cook out, sit around the camp fire (forest fire with me there), get plastered, pass out, get up and do it again. it'll be not a good idea to drink and ride back to your room man. damn sure not with 318 curves to deal with along the way. plus, if you comit to this then you can schedule everything else around it. and there's only 3 or 4 spots left. first come, first serve. come on guys. get in on it. it's the gap man. how in God's name could anyone in their right mind say no to an R1 week at the gap?

Good luck with gettin your baby back together :riding

Alright Yoder, I'm in...hard to pass up the beer...oh and yes, bring water, I'm all about a forrest fire man.

Originally posted by Sabian Alright Yoder, I'm in...hard to pass up the beer...oh and yes, bring water, I'm all about a forrest fire man. AWESOME:rock who else is in? it'll figure up to 20 bucks a night. and i think everyone on the ride is kicking in 20 bucks for food. check out the link at the bottem here on the ride and get with kevap on the cabin. i'm not going to promis him anything for you cause if you back out it's on you not me. but if you comit to him, keep your word. he doesn't want to be stuck with the high cost of the cabin all to himself. but it'll be a great time. and at 20 bucks a night, dude... you can't beat the price. come on guys. we need a few more.

forgot to add this. http://r1-forum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=106789&perpage=10&pagenumber=1

I'm heartbroken:( I suppose you gotta take baby steps:D I wish I could go skiing with you guys, I'm up in Minnesota right now, and there is abourt 1/2 and inch of ice on the roads, but no snow, so I can't do anything but sit on these forums.

R6 is a better bike anyhow....Suzuki's..eh i won't say it...:)

I may only keep it for a year or two before upgrading, but for now, I think a 600 will be plenty of power for me. Sorry you cant make it to watch me bust my ass..LOL!! It's looking like I will be able to make it.... How long do you plan on being out Mike?? And maybe you could give me an idea of where I'm going LOL.... If you dont want to post directions, just give me a call sometime before Monday!! Looks like its just me and you so far.... the guy I'm dating will probably come, and maybe a few other friends! I hope some more of you guys can make it!!! I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!!!!

i'll get directions on here. i think ryan's coming too. not much time. and don't count on me to show you where you're going. i don't know myself. i'll get more on here when i have more time.

Hey, anyone want to go riding???? :) Ok, ya not really, but 8in in a day sucks my ass. Have fun boarding...
