Our Saturday Trip

We’re headed to the Gap tomorrow, and I hope to get a ton of pictures this time. My best friend will be taking her laptop along, so I’ll try to get some of the better photos up by the end of the day, but I do have my cell phone setup to blog photos. Right now I’m setup with Utterz, and my default blog is my personal blog, but I will be attempting to post to this blog as well. If not you will be able to see the photos on my personal blog, Everyday Randomness.

We plan to get there around 9am, and hopefully we’ll get to ride most of the day. The weather is supposed to be so nice! Our bike is back in the shop for a valve problem, but we’re taking a friend’s GSXR 750. It will definitely be a lot more fun to ride!

If any of you are going to be in the area, look for the matching Shoei helmets, the Gray GSXR 750, and the Red R6!

Photos Are Up

It’s a shame I didn’t get to ride up to the Gap with Hubby on Saturday because he said the weather was really nice. I was stuck at home dealing with a little something the boys don’t have to experience, and let me tell ya cramps are not fun on a 2 1/2 hour bike ride.

Yeah, so I didn’t get to go, but Hubby already has some pretty decent shots up. For you guys that went up Friday and Saturday, most of your photos are already up on Zeefoto and US129Photos. Alli I saw a couple great shots of you, and they aren’t all ass photos this time! Ray has a ton of great shots as always, and I’m sure he’ll make the front page of Killboy, as usual!

Did anyone happen to figure out who the other photographer was yet? We know Zeefoto, US129, and Killboy were there, but there was another group setup without any signs. It didn’t look like Killboy’s other photographers, and I don’t think it was Moonshine, so if anyone knows who the other people were let me know!  I don’t think Dragon Slayer Photos has been out there since August of last year.

I’m off to look at some bedding sets since Hubby’s picking up the material to build my new bed today!

BTW- I HATE THE NEW VERSION OF WORDPRESS!

Another Trip

I’m watching the weather almost religiously right now.  We’re planning another Gap trip for April 4th, and hubby’s already asked for the day off.  The bad news?  Right now weather.com is forecasting 60% chance of rain.  I’m hoping the trip is far enough away that the weather will change by then.

I’ve learned from experience not to even consider driving to The Gap if they’re calling for any rain.  The last time we went up for a full weekend they were calling for 30% rain on Saturday and 20% Sunday.  We figured it was a low enough % that we’d have a nice weekend.

What we had was anything but.  We spent all day Saturday kicked back at The Kickstand Lodge because it absolutely poured all day.  We did take the Blazer up and down the dragon a couple times, but riding was out of the question.  Sunday we waited until around lunch time for the roads to dry up, but at least we got to ride for a few hours before having to head home.

I won’t do that again.  Saturday was a full day wasted.  It was nice and pretty back home, and we could have been riding on 28 instead.

St Patrick’s Day Group Ride

What will I be doing for St Patrick’s Day? If you think I’ll be doing something boring like scoping out bathroom vanities or fixing my kitchen light that finally went out last week you’re wrong. Think I’ll be drinking the night away? Wrong again.

We’re going to Deal’s Gap! We’re getting together a list of anyone who wants to make a week day trip up there on March 17th (weather permitting), so if you want to go you can get in touch with us in a few different ways.

Feel free to leave a comment here letting me know to add you to the list. All comments are moderated, so if you don’t want it published just mention that. I’ll add you to the list and delete the comment. You can also hit me, Allison, or Ben up on Myspace or if you’ve got a contact number feel free to call one of us. Once I’ve got a list I’ll send out a reminder March 10th. If you’re still able to go you’ll get information on where we’re going to meet up, what time we’re leaving, etc. If you find out you can’t go, that will be the time to tell me.

Also, if you don’t want to ride up, but you don’t have the means to trailer let me know. We might be able to work something out. I’ll also be making a list of who’s trailering up. I’ll be keeping an eye on the weather reports, and I’ll pass along any changes in plans as need be.

Camping Gear For The Motorcycles

Now that I know I’m getting the Kawasaki Ninja 250r as soon as I have my taxes taken care of, it’s time to start looking for some more camping gear. We have one huge tent, but we can’t take it with us when we travel on the bikes because there’s no where to put it. When we go to Deal’s Gap we have one small tent that we take with us if we’re going to stay at the Deal’s Gap Motorcycle Resort or the Kickstand Lodge, but riding two-up with camping gear strapped to a sports bike isn’t easy.

Now that we’ll have two bikes I’m definitely going to have room to carry more gear. I was checking out a couple fender bags I want that are small but good for carrying some essentials. I also found another tank bag that I really like, but being a girl I’ve got to find something that isn’t going to interfere with the boobage. Ya know what I mean?
