Have a great ride guys!
I just rode Hawks Nest/ Highpoint/ Sussex NJ last weekend (I live in Honesdale, PA).
It's killin' me I can't go. I've got a big benefit ride Sunday. Next time though.

In preparation for our ride, I installed my lightbar today. I'll post pics in a different thread. They'll see us coming now...

Perfect... that's the look I'm going for. BTW - see you tomorrow 8:30am at OTB... this ride is gonna rock. We're skipping stop #2 and heading right to stop #3 (George & Pete), then to stop #4 to pick up Mercury!

I'm also going to bring a small video camera that I can mount in place of the GPS while up in Hawk's Nest. I should be able to capture it and download it to YouTube or something like that. Gotta love the RAM mounts. I have a ball with 1/4-20 threads that's made for cameras. I just pop the GPS mount/ball out and put the camera ball in.

Sweet... I already have my sony T7 in the tank bag so I dont forget it. Video's even better .

See you at 830... just a word of warning, my bike isn't the most fuel efficient right now (still have to get the PCIII dynoed & tuned) so I stop about every 100 miles or so, light comes on around 90. It's a pain and I know I can go probably like 25-50 more miles but I don't want to tempt fate

That's no problem... there are plenty of places along the way and my GPS will find the closest one.

Todays ride was fun guys thanks... I split off when you guys turned off 46 towards mt olive. the tiredness and dehydratedness hit me from the wedding and I was getting frustrated at the stock seat - I would have liked to ride more but when I get tired and sore its no longer enjoyable.

I really got spoiled with my drifter

anyway we discussed it a little today - heres some pics i took of the drifter after I got crashed

Kodakgallery.com*Join now and receive beautiful photographic prints from your camera

and here is a link to the ones from todays ride - thanks again guys!

Thats cool, George and Pete split off shortly after you did so you didn't miss much. I hope your dealer can get your bike bake in shape quickly, then we can plan some more rides - I don't mind the cold.

Great riding with you guys too. It was a long ride, but the scenery was great. GPS only got tripped up a couple of times, but we made it.

Here's the crew:

Left to right:

Mercury (Kenny), Guitar (Scott), Mike, Pete, George and dave007 (me)
