Moderate Ride Saturday June 11th

Post by fixxervi6 » Wed Jun 08, 2016 10:30 pm

FWMR Club Ride

Meetup: Sonic on Clifford St. in White Settlement
Kick stands up: 9:39
Ride Leader: Fixxervi6

This will be a Moderate pace ride. Moderates are great for riders who want a slightly faster pace than beginners but still slow enough to be relaxed and comfortable on any sized bike, with a passenger, or learning to ride with the group. The pace for a moderate ride is at or near posted speed limits. On a Moderate ride the ride leader tries to keep a closer eye on the group and adjust the speeds appropriately.

Please be dressed appropriately: helmet, jacket, gloves, over the ankle shoes and long pants.

Route not selected yet, once one is selected I'll update this post (I will probably pick it last minute). It's going to be warm so everyone needs to stay hydrated, show up with a full tank.

Out...track meet. Unless for some reason, we don't go to the track meet, then I will be there.

I'm going to come ride with y'all again, just not this time. Summer weekends have my social calender pretty full.

Would it help if we put Jim in front of you, would you ride with us then?

Ha ha. That was a close call and it did spook me pretty good at the time, but I'm over it and have been riding to work a bunch and a couple of bike nights. I'm not worried about riding in front of Jim. I bet he never wrecks again.

Good ride! We even had some adventures with flooded roads. :D 289 miles door to door.

I now have over 1800 miles on the bike and the rear tire is almost to the wear bars. Junk.

Great ride! Thanks Rick, like Jim said, kinda fun seeing the flood up close and personal. Thanks for the pointers Pat. My wife keeps asking me why I'm smiling? No doubt some of you are too. Looking forward to the next one.
