Yesterday DEFINATELY rocked!!Got to take a ride up to Shamokin, which is an event in itself, except this time, I was "shown how it was done" by none other than Chris_y2k_r1. Started out pretty foggy in the morning, so we decided to go up 309n and see how the weather progressed.. The fog burned away and the roads dried up, so we took 895 west all the way to 61..Nothing too crazy, just a nice windy country road...Chris made it EXTREMELY intersting,, riding mile long wheelies, followed by 50foot stoppies at every opportunity...To any and all who might doubt this guy's abilities, even slightly....let me tell you...Chris is without a doubt...THE REAL DEAL....I can only assume that he's great in the twisties, cause' once he got moving,, that's all she wrote....I did get to smell his brake pads from time to time.. ;)It was really cool to ride 125 when it was dry and sunny.The last two times I went out, it was too damp, in the shady areas...As an FYI, it would be a misnomer, to call Chris "squidly", because a squid is usually doing assinine/wreckless stunts, without real control. Chris on the other hand, excecuted ALL maneuvers with true precision, and excellant road etiquette.(He didn't even get pissed about having a boat anchor, like me tailing him. ;)
Thanks Chris!!! You definately earned a serious "two thumbs up"!

Glad to hear you guys finally hooked up. Us PA boys have to stick together you know. I wish I could have joined you guys but was busy riding the north course at VIR. I was wondering if Chris was still riding these days. A couple of weeks ago he was crying about the season coming to an end and all. He sure can throw some monster wheelies. You would think he grew up riding a unicycle, eh? We'll have to all get together some time for another Shamokin trip. Screw deals gap - we got rt 125! :D

Well ain't this a pleasant surprise! :)

Thanks for the props Jimmy - It was a great
ride. Racked up 400 plus miles total and
one very dead front tire. There are some
really nice roads to tackle out in northern
areas of PA. 125 however is nothing short
of a free racetrack! Good time for sure.
...oh yeah and Jimmy - man you weren't going
slow either there buddy! ;)

Geoff - How did the track days go bro??
I missed ya up there man - You know that
death turn around the barn... Well I was
coming around it just fine and then my eyes
caught sight of a car coming in the other
direction. Man!! I'll tell ya - total target
fixation - if I had just concentrated on my
line I would have been fine but I looked at
the car too long and found myself running
wide after it passed. Lesson to be learned
yet again. :rolleyes:

.. and as you can guess after a day like that
my but is sore baby! Either me or the R1 needs
more padding in the seat area! :D

Peace!
Chris

P.S. - Squid - I've been dying to get some
of this shit on vid but all my friends suck! :D

Chris, you must have good friends to sit there and film the filth for you. Do your rent or buy the animals for the "shoot".

Yeah, I'd say so Robert... Guys, guys, guys
You all really got a fatastic knack for
steering topics into the crasslands. It's
not a good way to attract chickens ya know :D

The animals are donated.
