Anyone up for at least one more gathering at the Ganny this season? I think it closes December 1st, so time is running out fast!

I was thinking perhaps Saturday September 25th - anyone else available to ride the Ganny?

I have an axle for a 200x.

I believe I can make this ride as long as work doesn't get in the way. I'll know better next week.

Haven't checked with the event coordinator yet, but I would like to do another Ganny ride. I'll get back to you.

Holy crap you guys are hard-core!!! Heading away this weekend, and considering a ride the following weekend! Man I wish I could ride as much as you guys, I'm envious!!!

Dave - hope you can make it! I will be bringing my 250R this time, and I refuse to leave until I conquer Neils Hill (that hill that I tried twice on my 350X and failed miserably both times). Here's a reminder for those that forgot: Hill: 2, Me: 0 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8q3erFhQNNA)

Hillbilly - get that thing fixed and get your ass to the Ganny Sept 25th ;)

I just heard back from Turtles... this is what he had to say:


BJ
sorry for the delay in the reply. I never rode much this year so i sold them. I pick up a travel trailer and we are going to relax a bit. It was great riding with you and the other guys had a blast.

Take care Scott

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!?!? I told him he better start looking for another trike, because I won't accept that answer :P

That's to bad, I really enjoyed riding with him! I was looking forward to introducing him to my American riding friends. Maybe he will get the itch and buy another trike.
When are you planning on showing up on Sat.? Is there any of your moto cross riding buddies joining us?

Sorry guys, I was gonna let Ross go and play with Dave on his own this time, since I'm tied up with kids and sports tryouts this weekend, but as he said his paying job is likely going to get in the way. BOO! Ride hard, but ride safe!!!!

Unfortunately I don't think any of my dirtbike buddies can make it this weekend.

I'm still up for a ride if you guys are (Tapper/Myles) - or we could try to reschedule for another weekend that suits better.

I have to head out by 1pm Saturday, but again, if you guys are up for a ride I can join ya from 9am-1pm.

If it's still a "go", we should meet at "Big Dog Parking" - see the below map for details:

If nobody else is planning to go (nobody has given a yes , I'll go) I might just sit this one out as well. It's a long drive just for a morning ride. Have you heard from Silveradoe? I'll post tomorrow evening with my final decision when Myles confirms, yes or no.

Dave, I'm going to go for sure, if you want to come and make a day of it, that would be great. Maybe if nobody else goes, we could take the Ganny right out to Bewdley, on the edge of rice lake, and back its about 75km round trip. let me know.
Hillbilly was that you I was talking to in the Ganny a couple of weeks ago, we were stopped up by the forest center?

Sounds good! Lead the way and I will follow! So, we will meet at the parking lot were BJ suggested? I was going to leave London around 6 in the morning, which should put me there around 9 ish. Can't wait, I'm always up for a good ride!

Made it home safe and sound, what a great day on the trails! Thanks to Myles and Peter for showing me a part of the forest that I haven't been on before. It was great to see and ride with BJ, even though he had one to many wheels, lol. I still chunckle when I heard the guy on two wheels say that he could believe how fast those trikes where, lol. Thanks again for a great day!!

Great ride today indeed guys!! I still can't believe how fast those 350X's were flying - we clocked Dave's at almost 75mph!!!

Myles - thanks so much for leading to Bewdley today, that was the first time I've ever been there, and it was a great idea for lunch. I'll definitely be back.

Thanks for coming out guy's, that was a great ride, hopefully we can get another ride or two in before the end of the season. Dave talk to Rosco, and see when him and Shannon are going to come for another ride, and we'll get one organized. See you soon.

Luckily it was just a problem with my exhaust mount - it broke causing the weight of the exhaust to pull away from the connecting pipe. A 50 cent bolt should have me back up and running no problem :)
