Intermediate Friday July 3rd

Post by fixxervi6 » Wed Jul 01, 2015 1:12 pm

FWMR Club Ride

Meetup: Sonic on Clifford St. in White Settlement
Kick stands up: 9:41am
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.

Little late lunch at Hard 8, show up with full gas tanks and eat breakfast if you'd like

Damnit man. :evil: If the start time was anything but 9:41, I could make it.

Plus I'm also out of town. Have fun, be safe.

For you I will make an exception, 9:45. I have to allow for time for the JB weld to set up.

You are going to do uturns... I sense it. /e does the helmet shake thing you know so well :-)

Serious question about riding intermediates = you mentioned mesh is okay, but you'd still choose leather over mesh, right? (Simple question, won't thread jack, promise)

Zip together mesh is minimum.

If you eat it in mesh at the peak speeds intermediate runs at, plan on losing some skin.

Cool beans. Thanks for pointing out the gear requirements as I would have totally missed the part about no jeans. I'll be sure to wear my favorite shorts then! LOL.

In and most likely will meet you at sonic instead of the house since I'm heading to Denton before the ride.

Only if they are apine stars. Other shorts don't offer good enough protection.
