Twisties Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 No pics, didn't happen. One minute. ONE! You can't get away with much 'round here. Dang, I thought I'd gotten on that within 15 or 20 seconds. Must be getting slow in my doddering senility. Link to comment
SageRider Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Must be getting slow in my doddering senility. Time to increase the Geritol dosage? Link to comment

Whip Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Ed and Whip are safe and sound. 710 miles 10 hours thirty minutes. Not bad for the slow guys......Limecreek and Steve left us outside Fort Stockton....(I had to stop for a second to lock down my top box and we never did catch em.) It was a great epic weekend......pix and stories to follow. Whip Hey Tim.......#3 just kills me. Link to comment
Limecreek Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Steve and I made it home around eight last night. We had a great time and will definitely be back for Silver City 2. Sorry we lost you Larry......I promise I am cured. Link to comment
Twisties Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 So I need a pic to prove I was there? Will this one do? You know John, I don't really think so, but who am I to say. Just 'cause I can't see anything in that little snap, don't mean it ain't there. Now here it's been 24 hours and we still don't exactly have anything that looks much like a photo. Doesn't seem so much like I'm the one that needs Geritol here. No, I think not. Glad ya'll had a good time. Wish we could have been there. Jan Link to comment
PhillyFlash Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Home around 1:30 pm on Sunday after a pretty casual ride across Rt. 78 (if you can call that casual) and a stop for a great lunch at El Rey in Globe. This was a fantastically low key weekend, with everyone just hanging out when and where they wanted, no big planned dinners (think Papa Johns pizza delivery Friday night and Wendy's on Saturday), a few groups a riders riding their own pace, and only one route that we all took, a clockwise loop across into AZ, up the Devil's Hwy, and down 180 back to Silver City. Almost every type of riding terrain (very tight, technical, twisties, decreasing radius downhill-uphill 15mph corners, gentle sweepers, big sweepers, a few high speed straights, gravel in the curves, choppy road surface, and some of the smoothest blacktop you'll find anywhere. Weather and temperatures were ideal; much better than we could have anticipated for the first weekend in November. A thoroughly enjoyable weekend. Having minimal expectations sure helps. All we had planned was to ride. And we certainly did ride! Link to comment
Limecreek Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Howard--Thank you. It was great fun, as always. I am in for SC2. Here is a pic of Howard enjoying the fruits of his labor. Link to comment

r1150gsrider Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Chris and I took 152 on the way out of town Sunday morning...it was much more fun than it was in the dark coming in on Friday. Randy Link to comment
** Chris ** Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 5 days of riding, 4 of them continued until after dark. Besides that, it was a great time. Enjoyed meeting everyone. Hope I didn't slow people down too much. I didn't get home until 9:00pm Monday night. We took the long way home along the Texas, Mexico border. Met a guy in Artesia, NM whose granddad lives less than a mile from me. Sure is a small world. Link to comment
