Author Message   Josnow Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 02:55 pm:        What time is everyone meeting up in Greeville?   Guell Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 04:56 pm:        I am in, ill try and be there as close as possible to 8 as i can. Got your number, ill give you a call tomorrow.   Aptbldr Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 05:02 pm:        Link above includes jail parking lot at corner of McGee and East North Street. Saturday morning we have an easy go north through downtown & "we're there". Kick-stands up at 10:10?   Jwnsc Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 06:07 pm:        Sounds like fun, but I'm riding to Bay Minette, in South AlaBAMa (as Forrest would say) at zero dark thirty tomorrow.   Scbuellkat Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 08:05 pm:        10:10 sounds great to me. Just dont leave without me. There should be a group coming that way. As soon as Matt gets to us we will fuel up and head to greenville. We should be there by 10 if Matt is able to get there by 8, but if not we will wait on ya! Matt, my work time ends at 3:30 and will probably be on the bike. I got a few stops to make, but after 5 you should be able to get to me at any time Man I cant wait to get out of town to ride!!   Hughlysses Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 08:52 pm:        Hey guys, here's a link to a ride report I posted a few years ago. You may find it of interest. Matt, pay attention to my odometer reading at the end if you're planning on doing it all in one day! http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/681 7/159242.html?1132372050   Guell Posted on Thursday, May 28, 2009 - 09:39 pm:        I talked with xblaw, he might be going. If not, ill try and do it in one day.   Tailspining Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 06:13 am:        10:10 at the jail... the outside part? I should be able to make that.   Aptbldr Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 07:18 am:        Arrival tweaks Saturday morning? My cellophone number is now with my profile.   Scbuellkat Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 09:06 am:        Got it. Sounds like we are going to have a decent showing of people!!! I will call you if the guys from summerville cant get to us by 8:30 or if anything else slows us down on the way up there.   Drfudd Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 10:30 am:        Darren, I'm coming up from Aiken and I should be at the Lowes meeting spot around 8am. I'll be leaving around 7, it should take me just under an hour to get there. I've been itching for an excuse to go on an all day ride, looking forward to it.   Scbuellkat Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 11:45 am:        Great we will be waiting.....   Josnow Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 01:43 pm:        If its ok, I would like to meet up at the Greenville location just to meet you guys and check out your bikes. Unfortunately, I cant join ya'll on the ride because I made plans with the boss and she would be pissed if I tried to change them.   Jds17 Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 05:53 pm:        I'm from Sumter and want to join in on this ride to Greenville. Where are you meeting up? Let me know. Thx.   Scbuellkat Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 06:51 pm:        Hey John (Jds17) take Hwy 378 from Sumter straight to I-77. Take 77 south to I-26 West to Spartanburg. When you get on I-26 go approx 2-3 miles to exit 111A to Lexington. This is a wrap around ramp. There will be a Lowe's on your left and you should see us out by the road. I will be there at about 7:45 am tomorrow morning. The plan is to leave by 8 am. Do not pass the stop light because Lowe's is at the light. You can see the light once you go back under I-26 when you get on Hwy 1 which is exit 111A off I-26. Hope to see you there. I will have a red jacket on but you cannot mistake the Buell for any other bike. Look for a 1125 CR from your commute from Sumter because there is someone that I have been talking to from Sumter that is coming for the ride who will be on one I believe, so his profile says he has one, but I may be wrong. From Sumter it should take you about 35 mins to get to this location give or take 5 mins Im guessing. Hope to see you in the morning. Wanting to leave ASAP given everyone is there. May be there a little after 8 but we will be looking for you!   Guell Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 07:56 pm:        Good to see your going to make it Nick, So am i the only lowcountry guy making this trip?   Hughlysses Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 08:16 pm:        Yep, looks like it. Truck oil to change, house repairs to catch on, plus visitors in town. SOMEBODY take lots of pics and post a good ride report in the Tales section!   Drfudd Posted on Friday, May 29, 2009 - 08:27 pm:        I'll take along a camera, but I won't promise to take a lot of pics, I may just enjoy the ride too much to think about it!   Aptbldr Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 05:29 pm:        Sounds of nine Buells (three generations) together on the road: cool harmonics. Smiling at wheelies in my rear-view mirror. Simple inexpensive turn-signal sounder. This motorcycle keeps delivering fun. Thank-you, fellows.   Rcontroler Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 06:49 pm:        How sweet it was....Great to meet new folks and meet/ride with all.   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 07:12 pm:        Just got home, According to my odometer, i did 556 miles today on the cyclone, and it only decided to eat one part! par for the course. Wouldnt be a bike trip if my bike didnt break something! As always, i had a blast seeing yall and meeting new folks.   Scbuellkat Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 07:23 pm:        Yes surely had a great time. Glad you made it back in good time and well before dark. It was an awesome time!!! Just a couple shots from the stop at Cesars Head, I know I didnt spell that right, it just dont look correct. Oh well!! When I get my other pics developed, I may have better pics. These show all 9 bikes with a little blockage   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 07:45 pm:        Im uploading my pics right now, Im glad i made it back with a muffler still on the bike!   Hughlysses Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 07:56 pm:        Nice photos Darren, thanks for posting. Glad you guys had a good ride- it sure looks like it was a good day for it.   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 08:04 pm:        Here ya go, this is what you missed lowcountry doods   Hughlysses Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 08:23 pm:        Nice photos Matt! OK, how were the roads? Where'd you ride? Tell me more, please!   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 08:28 pm:        Roads were awesome, i honestly cant remember what roads we took, i wasnt leading haha. We did hit ceasars head, and 178, both awesome roads. The road up to ceasars head was ok, not the greatest condition and there was crap from trees on the road. Still fun though. Oh, does anyone want to buy a cyclone, im about ready to burn this bike... and get a xbr of course   Delbuort Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 09:23 pm:        Hah, man...you should just make the leap and get an 1125CR. I had a great time today. I'm glad I made the trip. I hope we get to do it again soon. I'll post my crappy phone pics soon.   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 09:47 pm:        I wish i could Jason, I just dont want another payment at the time. Oh well, i am getting this fixed and selling it.   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 30, 2009 - 11:07 pm:        I emailed kooks, hopefully i can get something resolved with it. I do love the bike, it ate up the miles today. And was comfortable doing so.
