[RRedbean]

Hey everyone,

As the subject line reads Im new to this board but not not to riding. Im livin in chula vista and heard thru Socalriders about the bike night in east lake. I went and had a good time. Met a lot of nice people and am looking forward to riding with you all.

I have to admitt Im having a little trouble navagating the board. So many forums within forums. Ill figure it out...

Where is the best place to see and post rides for San Diego?

Thanks again and hope to see ya shinny side up.

Welcome John.

If you ever get bored with 2 of the SAME bike, I'd be willing to assist you (free of charge) by taking one off your hands. Just let me know. Really, it's no problem. Just tell me when. I have no problem riding the track bike on the street. All you gotta do is ask. No seriously. Ask already. I'm getting impatient. Oh forget it. I didn't wanna help you anyway. No No I'm sorry. I do wanna help. I'll tell you what: you're probably bored with both bikes, so here's what I'm gonna do for YOU! I'll take em both, then trade one off for ya and get you a nice Buell. You could live with that right. Again, it's all on me. All you gotta do is ask.


Again, welcome!! I'm curious. What percentage of your riding is track versus street? What do you find more enjoyable?

[RRedbean]

Thanks for the warm and quite humorous welcome. Since I am selling one for a track 600rr, you’re more than welcome to take one off my hands. all you have to do is drive from Ohio. You are from Ohio Right? Land of that stupid brown nut thing. I lived there a lot when I was young. Dayton, Milford, cinci can’t say I miss the cold and the rain and such.
Anyway, to get to your real question about the track. I commute on the bike most everyday but I don’t count that as riding. So with that said I ride at least 150-300 miles on the weekend. Mostly canyon riding with lots of turns. Keeps my tire wear even. No flat spots down the middle. You know come to think of it if I didn’t commute my tire would look like a wedge /\...

I ride on the track at least one weekend a month except in the middle of the summer. To damn hot. I find the track a whole lot more fun that the street. A WHOLE LOT more fun...I can go Fast, Drag my knee and not have to worry about oncoming traffic, blind corners, oil, gravel, bicyclist...etc. you get the idea. I also get to work on problem areas over and over. Don’t have to turn back, just keep going around. I even went and got my amateur racing license.
Is this long enough? Short version the track is the only place where you can truly work on skills.
Thanks again for the welcome.

RREDBEAN!!! Sup man, I didn't know you were on here. When are we riding again?!

[gixxerx8]

Wuddup Mr. 2-bike-man. I'm thinkin' about gettting a 2nd bike but none of the dealerships want to take one of my kids for trade. Damn their stingy.

[RRedbean]

Sup James. Im riding again. Just got my track bike on the street and Im riding it insted of my other one. As soon as I can get it looked at by the CHP Ill get the new title and it will go the way of the for sale by owner.

Have you been out this weekend?

[Cyanide41]

yes sir! just got back. I was down in your neck of the woods, I was suprised I didn't see you.

[RRedbean]

:cry: I didnt get down here till 1030 or so and I spent the whole afternoon washing and waxing my truck. Damn that thing is big. Also put a new crank case gasket on my bike. I over filled it and got a little weepidge. should be ok now. Ill find out tommorrow when I take it out.

How was your ride? Pretty hot today.

[RRandawg]
