Intermediate Saturday April 30th

Post by fixxervi6 » Thu Apr 28, 2016 10:20 am

Not our normal meetup spot

FWMR Club Ride

Meetup: Pilot Travel Center
Kick stands up: 11:00am
Ride Leader: Fixxervi6

This will be an intermediate pace ride. The pace on the country roads is what we call spirited and has a tendency to remain above posted speeds. On an Intermediate ride the ride leader will keep an eye on the group but is also focused on riding his/her own ride. Intermediate rides the riders are expected to be comfortable riding with the group and have good self control, allowing the ride leader to "relax" a bit.

Please be dressed appropriately: full face helmet, zip together mesh at a minimum (leathers recommended), appropriate motorcycle boots and gloves. Jeans are not appropriate protection for intermediate rides.

Trying something a bit different, found some neat roads on the last ride so I want to explore a bit more off some of those roads. I don't have the route built yet but we'll hit lunch around noon then hit the majority of the twisties after lunch, the ride STARTS and ENDS in weatherford hence the late start time. A lot of these roads we will be hitting I'm not familair with so some segments may be tame for an intermediate but still a higher pace than moderate.

Well, Pat makes a habit of it fairly regularly. I say we buy a few can of spray paint for him. Scott just didn't know it was red bike day again.

Your excuse simply would be "honey, I have no idea where we were, or how to get home, so I had to stay with the ride".
