Sunday ride...............
Getting a ride together for Sunday.
Talk to R6buttercup if you need a reason to show up!!!!
Pm me or post up on here that you wanna role on out and I'll pm ya with time and location.
Boots, jeans, jacket, gloves, helmet all required at a minimum. We don't roll around off and on ramps; we ride. Be prepared for turn after twistie after turn. No traffic or cops; just a fun time.
Follow the lead. Look and pay attention for hand and foot signals and you'll be fine.
Everyone should know the basic turn signals, hand on helmet is for a cop nearby, hand tapping tail from leader means "stay on my ass, I'm prolly gonna pass someone", leg outstretched means there is shit in the road and too be careful/slowdown, hand moving up and down to the side means keep it slow: prolly a tight turn coming up, if I pass someone and you don't; wait for my thumb's up for no oncoming traffic.
Stay in a staggered formation, but leave room in the twisties. And use your lane for the turns, but DON'T cross the yellow in a blind turn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And DON'T panic if you come into a turn too damn hot. Don't jam on the brakes or try and stand it up. Let off the throttle and lean like your life depended on it; cause it prolly does!!!!!!!
Let me know who's all up for this.................................

Re: Sunday ride...............
i'd like to ride, but tossing around the idea of getting a blue ridge parkway run together for sunday, thats probably what i'll end up doing... but then again i've ridden that plenty of times already, i'd like to see what pungo's all about
but to get to you guys in time i'd probably have to wake up super early in the AM
