Bernie Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Terry ( @terryofperry), I ( @Bernie) and the SE-BBR guys would like to invite you to the February SECFF Lunch Meet on February 17, 2024 @ 11:30 AM. We are inviting you and your riding buddies (male & female) to enjoy some comfort food during this freezing time of the year. Hopefully the arctic blast will have blown out of here by then.

Maybe, if you would come to more of these events, it would be easier in the long run. Of course you always will have to add the extra expense of tire wear, fuel usage and more frequent oil changes to your lunch tab. Link to comment
Lowndes Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 39 minutes ago, Lone_RT_rider said: Than me? Yes.... Chris is good in the really tight twisties, but warp speed is not his thing. That's a common misconception about Sir Chris. He is a very smart, fearless, considerate and thoughtful leader and allows us stragglers, wobblers, and mere mortals to catch up on the straights. Plus he knows the straights is where you get the tickets. I do remember a ride to Hot Springs several years back (Newport??) coming out of Trust on 209 after a lunch there with a group of Harley riders that left a few minutes before we got out. We caught up with them at that long straight and someone said, "Let's pass 'em". I looked down as I passed the last one and the speedo was sayin Mach Jesus. And that was Chris up front. He CAN do it, but seldom does unless we absolutely need to. But if you want to do warp stuff I'll help. My little K13S luuuuvs it and I ain't got no sense. Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Loundes, I didn't say he couldn't do it. I said it wasn't his thing. Just like me in the tight twisties and putting the effort into the really tight stuff. I can do it, I just prefer not to most of the time. I.E....... I'm lazy. ;) Shawn 1 Link to comment
Lowndes Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I hear people talk about how much effort it is, how tired they are after riding the twisties, but I'm just as tired riding the same mileage on the slab, but not nearly as happy for some reason. BTW, Shawn, I still have your Dunlop poster from Sparta. No worries, mate, it's safe here. Still rolled up. 1 Link to comment

Bernie Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 Yes, guys it will be a moist Saturday, or not. But that is the way the squirrel moves. I see who will make on Saturday at 11:30 AM. Unfortunately our official buffet tester is under the weather and will not be able to join us this Saturday. Link to comment
wbw6cos Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Bernie, does that mean another buffet lunch for March? Hmmm. I hope he is feeling better by then. 1 Link to comment
MikeB60 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I'll be there. Haven't been on a bike since January and it just looks like sprinkles from here to Metter. 2 Link to comment

Bernie Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 I just called the restaurant and gave them a heads up. So they can load up some extra food on the buffet line. They are expecting us at 11:30 tomorrow. 2 Link to comment
Bernie Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 Home after a 418 mile day. We had a great turnout despite the bad weather forecasts. I think we may have had 15 folks that braved the weather and enjoyed a nice lunch and some good tire kicking. Thank you to Sammy and the Augusta group for dragging 5 guys to the lunch. We did sorely miss several of our regulars, but hopefully they can join us for the SECFF Lunch in March for the wrap up of the season. Here are a few pictures from the event. A unique older RT showed up also. This is what RT’s looked like before all the electrical engineers got their hands on it. Also 2 good and longtime friends reconnected before lunch in the parking lot. Toady’s quiz: Anyone remember their names? Here are some from the rest of the bikes. Here is a group picture from @Lone_RT_rider And one from Sammy from the Augusta Gang, after they joined us. 4 Link to comment

wbw6cos Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Wow Bernie, I logged only 441 miles on the lunch ride today; I feel honored to be in your range today. Thanks to Chris and Shawn for helping me run them. Thanks for hosting a great SECFF gathering. See y'all next month! 3 Link to comment
