We had a fun but very wet ride. Only saw a few other bikes, no cops anywhere. Hope to catch up with you all soon.
Glad you and David are home safe and sound. Any pics?.....
Sorry John, we just rode. It was very cloudy/wet/gray so we just kept moving. Lotta of tire sliding on the cattle guards and limited visibility, but we kept the pace up.
Pussies.

We had a great day of riding... going up & down Palomar with heavy rain and thick fog was fun BT016s pro did well in the wet as I did not experience any sliding even when pushing the pace a bit...
I did not see Rick Clemson up there tho lol Raining gear held up pretty well... my only real problem were my gloves (didn't use the waterproof ones like a dumbass)...

Wavex and I are still going to ride. Rain doesn't bother us....
We will be at the Mobil station before 9:00am. Hope some of you guys can make it.
Hard Core! Damn right.
In my opinion it's always nice to ride in the rain if you are prepared with the proper gear to stay dry. It keeps you sharp on your wet riding techniques.
But again, nothing wrong keeping that risk level at zero by not riding at all.

I thought that was where you were at in that photo.
Sept 12th 2009 FZ6 forum ride!
Here's a picture (attached) of the roster.
I agree about the risk factor and the opportunity to sharpen your skills. We rode 220 miles in rain Saturday without any incidents. Not really our preference but that was the only tome we could ride together for the next 4 weeks.
John I thought you were retired and could ride anytime:BLAA:

This year will be different...I am just a couple of weeks from purchasing a Super Tenere, and I have someone new in my life who likes to ride with me.
2013 will be awesome.
