Title: Speed ride pics... Post by: Ride1Rob on September 03, 2005, 05:30:21 PM We started out w/ 22 speeders today. That seemed to almost dwindle pretty fast as Dreths younger cousin lost of control of his bike and it bent his steering stem. THAT WAS B/F THE RIDE EVEN STARTED :-\. We had a few McGyvers and they fixed it. Used 2 trucks to pull the stem back into place :drive.gif. Good to see the guys that I know again... Dreth, Tony, Luis, Steve, Felix, Nelson, Eric. And it was good to meet you guys for the 1st time Mokas, Honda328i, Dreths cousin, as well as the rest of you guys. Sorry I can't remember you all.
My day was cut short b/c of.... Tail pipe problems... AGAIN :banghead.gif. We weren't even 15 mins into the ride yet either :(. So I headed back and loaded the bike to come home. Here are some pics that I got up til then. Between Eric of some of the other guys I'm more than sure they'll have some stories and pics as well. Hey! It's Dreth mad at himself?? He has to be mad at himself. Look at those tite arsed pants he has on :H. Actually this pic was for the damage to the stem, but when I viewed this pic on my computer those tites... Err, I mean pants :-\ were the 1st thing that stood out. Come to think of it... I had a pair of parachute pants when I was in the 6th grade like those. I think Dreth stole my d**n pants :box.gif [attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: Ride1Rob on September 03, 2005, 05:32:41 PM Still trying to figure out how they're going to fix that stem.
Except for a few, all of these vehicles were for the speed ride ;) [attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: Ride1Rob on September 03, 2005, 05:35:52 PM Another of the vehicles...
And in case you've never been to Scrub or ONF :dunno.gif... This is what you're missing... :Y The possibilities are ENDLESS! [attachment deleted by admin] Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: Ride1Rob on September 03, 2005, 05:37:27 PM Those are all the pics that I got in my brief stint today. Hopefully there'll be more from Eric and others. Also I'm dying to know how the ride went. What happened? Did anyone join Dreth in the front after I left? Anyone else Loonie enough to keep the pace?
Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: atvtrailer on September 03, 2005, 07:13:53 PM well, actually i thought it was slow today :( , i was lookin forward to goin fast :) , maby next time u can get him to go a lil faster ;)
Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: YFZ450-Tampa on September 03, 2005, 07:53:41 PM I liked riding with all this people from the site, I have a lot of fun, sorry Rob you have the problem with the pipe, but there is always a next time...
Nice meeting you guys ;D Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: gearhead400 on September 03, 2005, 07:55:57 PM yup, it wasnt that fast. the reason i know, i was keeping up :P
Had a great time anyway. Dont remember half of you names but definitly a cool bunch of guys. cant wait for the next one! Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: Ride1Rob on September 03, 2005, 08:11:44 PM I just spoke w/ Dreth and he was saying the pace wasn't near what it was supposed to be. After my pipe took a crap he said he wasn't really feeling it after that since Tony wasn't 100 percent enough to really push him. Although he and Luis did a good job :ThumbsUp.gif. Don't worry though guys, next ride it'll be "Catch us if you can". ;)
Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: T2 on September 03, 2005, 08:31:17 PM LMFAO on the pants of Dreth ;D ;D ;D
I had a good time today and it was real nice meeting some new faces for the 1st time, I didn't remember everyones names but sure had a good time. As far as the speed goes I know I wasn't at my full game today due to babying my foot on the ride, so sorry if I slowed anyone down today and didn't pull over to let you pass. I agree this wasn't the same pace as the last time, but still have fun and I am glad I was even able to ride at all. Until next time I will make sure to push Dreth in the 5th gear WOT and there will be no turning back. I do think Dreth did hit WOT a few times did any catch up to him on the ride B4 he stopped and waited for you? 8) Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: LE450-RACER#77 on September 03, 2005, 09:10:50 PM Had a good time today & glad to meet all the new people. Hope to see ya'll on the next one.

Post by: MOKAS on September 03, 2005, 11:08:21 PM wow guys that was a blast! sorry you all had to keep stopping for me. after i loks the spare 1gal i got scared of running out of gas, and knowing out emt (with tow rope) wasent there, i wasent taking any chances. t2 probably thinks i cant ride worth a damn, because of all the mishaps going on today. 2 pegs came loose, put under seat and one slid out past the air box, so i chucked the other. and the rear brake cable mount came unbolted and put that under the seat and it slid out too!!!, i couldent belive it. my axle locknut also came loose once and so did the sprocke on the sprocket hub, thank god emt rider wasthere with is tool kit. (sorry i forgot your name) also a big sorry to rob and our buddy that met the 250ex. i heard you got quad insurance tho so thats good! luckly everyone walked away, barley.

Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: backinsaddle on September 05, 2005, 08:45:08 PM I had a great time on the ride, and met a lot of great people. I can't wait to go again...gotta get in better shape though, that's for sure. After about 15 minutes of hard riding in that heat, I call uncle.

OK what is this place? It looks like Eureka Dam but I never made it out to there. I need to find a cool place like this, I would also like some GPS coordinates because me and my dad suck at following directions. Thanks! EDIT Also as that dirtbike w/ you? Are dirtbikes welcome on rides? Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: eric on September 05, 2005, 09:49:42 PM I don't know if any of the dirt bikers were officially invited but we met up with them on the last ride we did. As long as they can keep up I never have a problem with it :)
Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: T2 on September 05, 2005, 09:56:37 PM It was a slow ride anyway so they shouldn't had a hard time keeping up ;D
Great pics though, thank you for taking them. Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: MOKAS on September 05, 2005, 10:43:27 PM heres all my pics ill try and get the vid of the whole group riding by up too.

Not to worry, I'll be ordering my Alba tomorrow and next day airing it ;).
Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: cubnfrank on September 06, 2005, 09:01:21 AM Great pixs, :)That ride was alot of fun, yea we had a few problems along the way but it was great
meeting & riding with you guys. Luis thanks showing me the way up there. Mokas thanks for the gas could'nt have got back with out it. Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: MOKAS on September 06, 2005, 05:46:00 PM thats good to hear rob. your gyt-r looks like it had been welded 10 times!
no prob cubnfrank, you already paid me back. by the way i got the axle tightened up on the last day of riding, monday and it held up! i hanered the nuts down and wrapped electrical tape around it so it couldent back off all the way. finally got a good days worth of riding out of it, and she held up. -mokas- Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: YFZ450-Tampa on September 06, 2005, 06:03:13 PM No problem Frank, any time... We have to do another ride.
Luis Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: Honda328i on September 06, 2005, 06:15:54 PM Great pix guys. Sorry I had to leave early, looks like you had fun at the pit. I was getting heat exhaused and had to save some energy for my anniversary trip Sat and Sunday :) Seeing the wreck just kinda capped it for me too.
It sure was great to see everyone again and to meet some new faces, and to break in the new bike. I think I am going to have to call my Elka dealer soon. ;D at least if we keep riding those whooped trails. Oh, I get it, that was the plan all along, to sell more Elkas. :P Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: KXKID on September 06, 2005, 06:20:50 PM where did you ride at¿
Title: Re: Speed ride pics... Post by: cain73 on September 06, 2005, 06:35:57 PM Cool pics, but some of them looked more like it was a demolition derby instead of a speed ride :o

We rode real hard. I enjoyed watching you rip that lil 300 up boy. Tell your dad I say hello. Did he ever find his oil dip stick?
