Man was it cold this weekend.....no snow though!

And your point is?

I am fixing an 08 Ulysses XT that had a real light let down on the left side, I need a handle bar, grips and a clutch lever. I am living in Lansing now I have a HD store about 3 miles away so I can get lots of Sportster parts!

Hey guys, just bought the 1125r, living in Harrison Township. Do you plan rides around the area? Haven't seen another Buell around here yet, looking to run into a few.

Congrats on the new bike! I have an 1125R, and I'm in Sterling Heights.

In case anybody is interested, Tip The Hottie is doing a Bikini Bike Wash at Capitol H-D in Lansing on May 30th for their Open House. It's a little far for most of you, but it's a good excuse to take a ride.

Hardcorps. Are you going to be in town this coming Tuesday the 26th? If so i am not leaving till the 27th so i will probably be going to Aubrees [Depot Town] Tuesday night the 26th. I went the last 2 Tuesday night and almost none of the Triumphs showed up.

Derek, any good routes in the area? Tired of buzzin the freeway. There's a great 3 mile stretch just west of Port Huron with a bunch of twisties and elevation changes. Where'd you buy the bike?

I got mine at American H-D in Ann Arbor. I moved to Sterling Heights from Brighton back in November, so I'm still trying to find my way around. So far all I've been able to find are strait mile roads with a bunch of traffic. I'm up for hitting that stretch by Port Huron.

Sweet, I just rode it with my buddy and his Gixxer on Saturday. Needless to say we had a blast, although it's like an hour ride from sterling heights just to get to the damn road. Can't wait to meet up with you to go ride, saw an old S3T on the road and a Firebolt this morning!

I just rode my Dad's BMW K1200GT to Lexington on Saturday with the girlfriend. It's not a bad ride. My bike is in the shop for the break line recall, but I'll let you know when I get it back.

Sounds good...have you seen "Long Way 'Round" with Ewan McGregor? It basically was a TV series where he and a friend took two BMW's from London to New York but through Europe and Alaska and through some crazy shit...try to find a copy, makes you wanna travel on a bike. Lexington is a nice ride, not a lot of traffic and cool along the lake.

Hardcorps. If it doesn't rain i'll be there. You should go on Craigs list Det metro area, there is a 2006 sprint with 10,300 miles and extras for $5,100.00. Looks good.

Derek....You talking about 136 up by Port Huron? I'm from the Sterling Heights area as well and try to take all the backroads up there once in a while. Was thinking to get up there this weekend....but 136 is closed off 19.
If anyone is up for riding, please let me know. Always looking to get out on the road.

Derek..you talking about 136 up by Port Huron? I'm from the Sterling Heights area as well and make my way up there once in a while. Tried to go up there this past weekend and it was closed @ HW 19.
Anyone up for riding, please let me know. Always up to hitting the road.
Saw a Lightning on Van Dyke last week. Anyone here?

There is a section of 136 closed if you come from 19 that goes through Memphis and Emmett. If you came from 94 its all good.

FYI, there is a "Blessing of the Bikes" in Richmond (I think), if anyone is interested. I believe it's this Saturday the 6th at noon, I'll post again once I get more details. If anyone wants to ride, let me know...

OK, the "Blessing of the Bikes" is at Horizon Outlet Mall, right off of I-94 and the Dove Rd. Exit 269. Registration is at 10, then there's a big ride scheduled at noon. I'll be on the east side of Detroit if anyone wants to ride out there on Saturday.

I broke my first belt today. I had a nice little walk through Mount Clemens.
I'm thinking it would have been a good idea to replace the belt after the rear wheel bearing fell apart on the freeway.

Are you guys still meeting for regular rides? I was out of town all last year, so I lost track.

Scott, I'm taking an advanced rider course next weekend in Port Huron. It's an MSF course and only costs $25, and it's on Saturday the 20th...not sure of the time. Let me know, I haven't signed up yet, but hopefully there are some slots left.
