Ya might wanna hold off on the action footage, LEO's were taking tapes for evidence this past weekend.....

Originally posted by Vman1300 Ya might wanna hold off on the action footage, LEO's were taking tapes for evidence this past weekend..... Yea--You are right with the weekend, but I would think we would be OK during the week (wed, thur, fri) Besides, why woudl they want a tape of Ian and James at it again?!?:lol :lol :lol

Just got a call from Steve, and he will be working about 2 hrs away from the gap. He wants to come down and join us on Saturday. Hey James--Remember you wanted that morning ride??? Here ya go--Steve said that he wants to meet up at the crot at 8:00, so Saturday AM we can go if you like!

The crot at 8:00 sounds great. I'm a bit worried about my tags though. They are way outta date and I can't afford to renew them because MS charges about $300 for renewal tags for my bike. Ian

Originally posted by R1formetoo Steve Clegg? That guy is damn fast from what I hear? Ian Yep--That is him.

looks good man do you think we can talk steve into riding down to blood mountian?

The only thing I have planned is the Saturday morning blast down 28 to the dam for the group picture.

Originally posted by southern118 looks good man do you think we can talk steve into riding down to blood mountian? i would say yes. he is working away at the shop with the construction co, and I don't know if he has internet access. Kevin--On the deals gap site, they were saying that NC is setting up to re-pave 28. This will be sweet come next year, but I don't know the road condition right now--Too bad for later this year, but this will be another kick a$$ road!!

Originally posted by Vman1300 The only thing I have planned is the Saturday morning blast down 28 to the dam for the group picture. Kevin-- here is the posting I found on the dealsgap site: They started tearing up 28 south of us to repave. This is great news for a long overdue job. People love to ride 28 as a warm up for the Dragon, and now it will be a much nicer surface. They are renaming the road “The Hellbender”. Have you ever seen a Hellbender before ?? This was posted on Friday the 21st

the race was good marty just got done watching it. i have to say it doesnt matter how much you hate mladin you do you do have to give him some credit

Originally posted by southern118 i told you i have no problem iwth getting up early for some good pancakes and riding. steve isnt fast just smooth :rock yeah once i hear the the engine fire up i forget what time it is.

Originally posted by southern118 I CAN see about it kevin. should be no problem. just call and remind me thursday :thumbup

Oh no, Saturday I'll be up at the crack of dawn with you guys but considering that I will finish my 9 hour drive at 2 a.m. Friday morning, you fools better not wake my a** til I get 6 hours of sleep. Ian

Ian Friday morning, it's breakfast at the crot at 8am, better have the engines warming up at 7:40am. So you best get here before 2am! :fact

Originally posted by southern118 CAN WE SAY WE HAVE A :cryin BABY HERE. everyone will be up at aroudn 6 ready to leave ;) and it is only a 7 hour drive man You are soooo full of sh*t that it ain't even funny. Do you really think we can pull a 16 ft trailer loaded with bikes and run it in 7 hours. Hell no, the gap alone with that trailer and a 20 ft long truck will take us over an hour. The drive last time took us about 8.5 hours in my Dodge and we drove 75 mph. Ian :2bitchsla James

Originally posted by southern118 i told you i have no problem iwth getting up early for some good pancakes and riding. steve isnt fast just smooth :rock :2bitchsla I'm pretty fast when I'm on my game...Just ask Eddie and Chad...At RA I wasn't really that fast...I was riding about 60-75% if that..I was just real un easey because my stock forks are bent a little and that was the first time that I really rode sense my highside...Trust me I will be back in my groove at the gap..:yesnod As of right now everything is a go for saturday...I will call Marty if anything changes and to tell him about what time I should be there.:thumbup

THAT IS COOL steve. always say you are smooth and slow ;) i plan on riding the gap early saturday morning around 630 to 7 eat around 8 leave out for blood mountain arounhd 9 get back ride teh gap a few times after the traffic is gone and have to go to knoxville to hang out with a few friends from school saturady night

With all the :2bitchsla :2bitchsla :2bitchsla going on, this should be a great weekend.....

Originally posted by 312R1 :lol :lol As of right now I'm not sure if I will take the trip to blood mountain..I have to be back and work sunday night...so I'll head back to gastonia N.C around 7pm or so. SHOULd be no probelm we made it back around 5 or so to robbinsville last trip. it is a good trip man i promise

you guys mind if I tag along? I wouldnt get to alcoa until late friday evening but would like to ride all day sat and sunday morning. It would be my first gap trip this year, so I need to knock the rust off before the convention. Is everyone just meeting at the CROT sat morning or what?:dunno **disclamer** all riding done by me saturday morning will suck and be slow....:lol

Though I'll tell you ahead of time that our group of riders will most likely not be as fast as you are accustomed to riding. Ian

Originally posted by R1formetoo Of course you can go dude. Though I'll tell you ahead of time that our group of riders will most likely not be as fast as you are accustomed to riding. Ian dont sweat it mang! I have come to the understanding that it takes a few gap trips to get fully "up to speed." Considering I havent been since July of last year, I've forgotten most of the corners and I'll be tired after the first few runs for sure. The gap is super taxing on the muscles :lol fast or not, as long as we have fun its all gravy. I gotta try out my new pilot powers that kevin was so gracious to supply :sneaky

We all have a cabin in Robbinsville at Phillips Motel. I think they are talking about going to Blood Mountain on Saturday. Southern will be back online later, he'll let you know something.

Originally posted by BluAreWun Oh yea!!!!!!!!!!! :fact Are you packed up and ready to roll Marty??? All I have to do is load the bike, and I'll be on the road--Got the stands, sparkle knee pucks, digital camcorder w/tank mount, digital camera, and all the gear ready to go! I guess I will figure out how to use the camcorder later! :jump :jump I CAN'T WAIT!:jump :jump I'll be :riding the gap in 24 hrs!!:jump :rock

I gotta try out my new pilot powers that kevin was so gracious to supply :sneaky I guess I'm kinda the exception to the rule. I've got about 50,000 sportbike miles on my resume and I've probably run the gap 20 times total but I don't think I've ever run hard hard on the gap or anywhere else on the street for that matter because like I told Chad, the gap is lined with trees, gaurd rails, and drop-offs. I just don't think its smart to run any street road past a certain speed, regardless of what percentage of your ability you are riding at. As an ex pro road racer and msf instructor, probably the finest rider in Memphis was Keith Huckabee and he died on 28 just taking it nice and easy. I intend to do everything I can both physically and mentally to see to it that I never join him. Ian

Originally posted by KneeDragger77 should be great. I wish I could keep up with the busa :bow Keep up with the Busa.....maybe the only plave you would have trouble will be a straightaway.... Last time we rode together, I saw you and Eric maybe 3 corners :fact Is Eric comming?

Originally posted by 312R1 :2bitchsla I'm pretty fast when I'm on my game...Just ask Eddie and Chad... Steve, I'll vouch for ya!

Guys, I had a GREAT time meeting and riding with you! Can't wait til next time. Maybe we'll see Ian2 on his Warrior by then. BTW, I took that POS sport cam back to bestbuy and the manager gave me a full exchange for a conventional miniDV camcorder so I should be set to take decent video next time with my own camera. Marty thanks for letting me tape with your camera. Tell Ryan join the board and let me know his trackday schedule so I can do one with him. Eddie

I lost my A$$:dollar on Monday and Tuesday, but wed/thur and friday I managed to win everything back, and I broke even. Mom, on the other hand, won a slot tournament, and hit very big! Mom and Dad are going out again at the end of June to try to win the grand prize of $35K in the tourtnament of champions. This entire last 2 weeks were awesome--from the gap with a great group of friends to Vegas playing blackjack until 4AM--who could ask for anything more--however, I must go back to work tomorrow to rest up from all this excitment! One thing I did see while I was out there--a cop on a Busa! Marty
