Intermediate-ish Ride Sunday the 11th

Post by fixxervi6 » Fri Jun 09, 2017 9:10 pm

Meetup: Sonic on Clifford St. in White Settlement
Kick stands up: 9:00am
Ride Leader: Fixxervi6

This will be an intermediate-ish 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.

Total metroplex round trip will be about 300 miles, lunch is going to be a gut stuffer so I plan on eating a very light breakfast and junk food on the way home :)) . This route goes through some of my favorite scenic roads, this route is planned as an intermediate but will adjust pace as needed.

I'll be two up on the GS so this will be intermediate-ish (it's no super sport)

I don't remember, but y'all gave us less than a 12 hour notice :p

It's beautiful out here though! I'll have to come back with a group of faster bikes.
