The pics we took didn't come out as hoped, we really didn't get a chance to dial anything in for the digitals. There is still hope on the film camera for a couple of shots, but since we didn't get to be truly set for when you guys came through we were just using a set focus and trying to catch you as you went by, then packed up and took care of James. When we can plan it better, we can be set up better to pan with the bikes because we will have a better positioning and know the timing better, as well as crank out full memory cards with the digitals.

That second video is KPH not MPH as the web page says it is.

The signs tell me it is Europe as well.

Loved the ride. I learned lots of new stuff.
I hope James is able to get back to riding soon.
I can't wait for the next ride! Hope it's as great as this one was. It was great getting to meet other Buellers finally. Everybody was great to hang with!

Hey all! We had a fantastic turn out for the Salt River Ride. I believe the final count ended up being about 15 or 16 there were some late arrivals. Kickstands up at 6:30 like originally planned, and we were off to the canyon.
Upon arriving in Globe we were greeted by the infamous electrical gremlin whom so graciously plauged Andrew's XB 12, final diagnosis was the ECM fried like mine on the Spring Fast ride. Loose terminal on the positive cable. Our sweep rider Steve stayed with Andrew until the trailer
arrived from Chandler. James showed up at the Chevron in Globe and we were off to the canyon.
We made one last stop before the entrance of the canyon to let riders be aware off whats to come.
Down in the canyon Mikel and his friend( sorry name slipped my memory) they were trying to get some nice photos of us, but did'nt turn out, maybe next time.
After riding up the canyon then coming back down
James went down in a sweeping corner causing substantial damage to himself and bike. Get well brother! I believe I can speak for most of us when I say whatever you need just ask.
Post ride BBQ was also a success with riders showing from all over the valley and one knowledgeable bueller from Flagstaff.
Great time meeting new faces and old friends and making new friends.
Thank you to all who participated here is just a taste of some of the ride pics, more to come.
Later J

That was a great ride on saturday. Will definitely have to do it again. Me and my pops had great time. You know, I almost forgot that I can use my bike for something other than transportation(Like actually having fun, LoL) Look foward to the next ride!!!

hey guys,that was a kick ride until i wrecked! me and jeremy were tear'in it up on some of those corners
why i wrecked-about a month ago i switched the shift pattern on my bike(now a reverse pattern)so,even though i've been riding for a month like this.when i was coming up on the curve instinctivly i shifted up when i should have shifted down,because of the reverse pattern i shifted down a gear instead of shifting into the next higher gear like i wanted too-thus causing the rear tire to lock up and the rest you all know.expensive mistake,but i'll be back quicker than ya'll think

Here is the meet up point
Pics of riders and their rides.
I do not have a pic for James, Blake, and his pops you guys showed up a minute after Grant stopped shooting. I may be able to rustle up some pics of James and his broken steed.
Enjoy!

Hi all. We (Lisette and I) had a great time Sat morning. Thanks to all who made her feel welcome. I'll post some pics if I can that she took. James, sorry again that you went down, you need anything just ask. I'm still working weekends until Oct, but come then I'll be looking to ride almost every weekend. Hope to see you all soon.

Oh, a big thanks to all who helped set up our new BRAG. Jeremy I know you were a big part of that so thank you. We might not be that big yet, but I think it's about quality, not quantity.

Yep it was definitely a kick a55 ride! Pics that you posted look good, now if only I would actually look at the camera next time. James if you need any help, just ask. I'm looking forward to riding with you all again. BTW I've only got Wednesday's, Thursday's, and Friday's off so if someone wants to do a trip then please let me know. I guess an early Saturday ride isn't out of the question either ( I work graves ).

The Oktoberfast is Sept 30th-Oct 2nd. Kobie and I are trailering our bikes and are looking for people who want to ride with us so we know how big of a truck and trailer we will need, its crunch time people PLEASE let us know cause right now its just Kobie and I. We plan on leaving early Friday morning and leaving Cali sometime Monday morning so if people need to leave Sunday night need to bring there own vehicle and we can trailer your bike for a small fee to cover some fuel costs. Please let us know ASAP!!!!!

Kelly: I knew her name started with a L just could'nt put the rest together. You are right about the quality statement, one could'nt ask for a better set of riders to enjoy some awesome scenery and choice twisties with.

Carey: I'm still trying to pull some strings at work and getting the funds allocated for the ride. We still riding this Labor day weekend, like we were discussing?

All: Dont forget to pick up your rider rewards card from Chandler next time your there.
Who's up for riding this weekend?
Andrew, Steve, Carey? and myself are planning on the Prescott run. If interested post your thoughts. We are thinking Sunday is the best day to shoot up there to dodge all the Labor day traffic.

Hey Don, I've got a friend that's about 90% sure he's going to superbike school. His name is Vinny? Vinnie? How do you spell Vinny??? Anywho... Great guy, hope you guys meet there.

I'm also about 90% sure I'm going to Oktoberfast. Because I'm military, I probably wont know until last minute. So, Eliz and I will be taking our own vehicle if we go. Hope to see you up there Carey/Kobie...

FB, If you're still reading, I'll let you know as soon as I do!

Glad you guys had a good ride, looking forward to next month...

Carey, if you spend both Sat and Sun nights at Montecito Lodge (which is the overall plan), come Monday morning you'll be 165 VERY twisty miles away from the ThunderDome and your truck and trailer.

just so's ya know.

A couple of pics when I was riding back down to Mikel & Guy to tell them about James.
Next time they said they will be able to dial in the camera so they are not blurry.
A big thanks to you guys any way
