Do you think they'll have a Desmosedici there?:crash :lol


J/K I'll be happy if I could get a ride on a 999.

I think I might be able to make this:D

Humm Maybe :) A 999 would be nice to try

From their site:
"Tell all your friends and if you have a bike (ANY Italian) you would like to show, please email ckirkness@cliffsbmw.com with your information"

You think I should register my Polini bike :)

Or this one the smaller one:crash

I may have to go to this.....I've already been to a BMW demo day but never rode a Duc....yet

So who's going Saturday?
I'm going to go but I have to go early, I got a picnic to go to in the afternoon.:beer

I'm definitely going :thumbup

I'm going to call them during the week to see what time things are happening but 10am sounds good :yesnod

I'm in:rock

Count me in too

Just heard back from Cliffs since I had a couple of questions:

1) your site mentions that we need gear. do we need to be wearing full leathers or will jeans/jacket/gloves/helmet be sufficient?

Yes, you can wear jeans etc. These bikes are on Ducati insurance and they
specify no skin showing and a helmet.


2) what time does the event start and do we sign up that morning for a test ride?

Sign up for the rides will start around 9am. Actual rides start at 10 and
run on the hour until the last ride at 3pm.

Does everyone want to meet somewhere or just go straight there?

Since I'm the Northern guy I'll be heading down early --just let me know were to meet or I'll just meet you guys there.

I'm gonna try to get there pretty early, around 8:45 or 9:00.

Sounds good to me John, is anyone else going?
Do you want to meet up at the commuter parking lot off RT34 by I-84 in Newtown.
BTW, if anyone else saw Geoff Fox tonight, he said rain on Saturday. :rant

NOAA says partly cloudy so here's hoping

OK, so who's in?

It looks like we might get rained on again.....:cryin

I had enough of that last week:crash
But I'm still up for it.:rock

You are talking about exit 11 off 84 correct?
Sure I could meet you there.:thumbup What time do you think you'll be there?

I don't mind getting rained on later in the day as long as it's nice in the morning...

I'd like to be at Cliffs by 9am so meet at 8:30? if that's too early I can just meet you guys afterwards...

I'm not sure if the exit #, but I thought it was exit 11.
Is everyone still going?
I could be at the meeting point @ 8:30 if it's still a go.

it's wet out right now but not raining. what does everyone think? do we still do it?

I'm good either way, if everyone is in I'll go.
I'm probally only get one day out this weekend, so given the choice I'd rather do Marcus Dairy tomorrow. But it doesn't matter.:dunno

The sun just broke through - at least a little I can see sun on the leaves :) I'm going to take a quick shower and gear up and head down. I'll give John a call when I get down there as long as I don't run into a down pour.

I'm going to plan on the Dairy tomorrow but an early run to meet then hang for a while then I'm off to do some boating :thumbup

Just found out I'm in the same boat and I would rather head up to Marcus tomorrow and get a ride in in the afternoon. So I'm out for today. Sorry for the late notice.
:cryin

It sounds like Andy's in, Chris are you going?

No problem, if I go today I'm still going to TRY to get out tomorrow. I just don't know what the boss will have to say about it.:rant

Well it all depends - if everyone else is out I might skip it. IT all depends on the weather. I don't really like riding in the rain.

And the sun just dissappeared again:no

Has anyone checked the weather for Danbury?

NOAA says the weather is supposed to clear up. if people are up for it I'll leave in a couple of minutes to meet up at exit 11

The fog is suposed to clear up in a couple of hours, with passing showers through out the day.
I'm leaning towards skipping today and going to the Dairy tomorrow morning.
I went to see the Indians last night and didn't get home till late, so I could use a few more hours sleep.:sleep

I was playing COD2 til 2 last night so if you guys want to just meet tomorrow thats okay with me... maybe I'll roll over to cliffs later to see whats going on...

http://www.weather.com/outlook/homeandgarden/pets/hourbyhour/USCT0046?from=36hr_topnav_pets

Might not be to bad only 30% change of T-showers -- Well I'm going to get ready I'll check back when I'm ready to go.

So Chris you game either way?

I'm going to go back to sleep.:sleep
I'll plan on hooking up with everyone tomorrow morning, maybe we can meet at the same place we planned for today.
The weather for tomorrow looks real good. :riding

If you're coming all the way from Sharon I think the least I can do is meet you at Cliffs :yesnod

Post up when you know for sure what you're doing. it'll take me about 20 minutes to get to Cliffs...

Yeah :) To many toys, but with that weather I've got to get the boat on the river :) I've already had a boater friend call - there is a bunch heading out this morning for the usual weekend campout/party. I told him I'll see them tomorrow :)

:) Put on the Driven DVD last night had a itch to watch a little formula racing - with drama and :boobies

OK got to hit the shower - then I'll post up again Chris.

Hopefully I'll see you guys tomorrow morning, if you can make it.
Have fun riding some Duc's today. :hellobye

OK I'm going to be heading down shorty, Chris. Might have to take it a little easy due to the wet/slippery roads - unless they dry up :)

ok, I'll leave in a couple then...

last one is nice :lol:

and yeah, we got pulled over by a State Trooper a block from Cliffs on the way home. the weenie didn't like my plate holder so I'll probably change it just so I never have to hear about it again...

Nice pics guys, looks like they had a good turnout.
Did you guys get to test ride any bikes?















BTW, Andy feel free to post any other pictures that you might of "slipped" on.:boobies :lol

:mad: Now I'm even more sorry I missed it.

Looks like you guys had a good ride:riding

Hey Andy next time we're out make sure your hand slips a few times....:eek: :boobies

NICE:sneaky

Sorry guys that's the only one I got. I was at the right place at the right time. It was so nice I just had too :) Plus she was riding a Ducati.
I thought Chris got a few ? but didn't see them :)
