Who Rode Today?

I have that market cornered with a yellow bike (well partially yellow)
I did pass 3 parked Park Rangers and one driving today, I was going 65mph, and slowed to 55mph...speed limit is 45mph.
Same as the last time I was there, and basically every time in the last 20 something years.
They never bother me(not that I want to push my luck), I think they go after the squids mainly(and I don't look like one in full gear with a backpack, I think the very visible blue trimmed U.S. flag on my left shoulder helps too).
Just a short run to the other side of town, literally and figuratively ...
Invited to a ZXROA meetup by the guy in the last pic standing next to that ugly bike.
I told him to get a Busa. He laughed. Another forum member is hiding behind the bike's tank, so no pic!

I did have some fun on the way home.
I got behind 4 guys obviously traveling together...first was a Hellcat Charger, 2nd was another Charger, 3rd was a 5.0 Mustang, and 4th was a Hellcat Challenger...plus me...you can imagine the racket.
I pushed them from their cruise into bursts of speed.
We finally came to a stop sign, and a long straight away, the Mustang blew by the Chargers and disapeared(I caught up to him 20 miles down the road).
I stayed behind for the show, the Challenger waited for room, then burned tires in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, floating across both lanes, I of course had zero problem hanging right on his bumper, we were doing 80+mph when he let out of it, just as well too, looked like it was on ice.
I waited for the next straight and power wheelied by with ease, lmao.
I was suprised to catch up to the Mustang so much later, he had to have stayed in it hard to have gotten so far ahead, as me and the Dodge brothers weren't exactly going slow.
I was originally gonna bust the Challenger's ass when we took off too, but once he left sideways and was fighting it through both lanes, I thought I'de just watch from safely behind...and pass them later...which I did.
Still fun though, cars driven as they were intended to be.

Daytona for me and some friends.. the traffic... man I never get tired of all the weirdos and traffic!
Was a good time tho with some cool dudes.... ended up at a local watering hole and had to go stand and watch two old drunk guys smack talk each other and push each other around as they were too near my Busa... one of them didn't like me standing there but I told him I was just there to make sure my bike wasn't involved, and he should focus on not getting knocked out by the other guy lol
ahhhh Florida man lmao

Pretty cool outing....and to have three forum members in one place is rare these days.
I got out for a little bit of spirited riding but the 20-30mph winds made it a shorter ride then I would of liked. Let the house on less then a qtr tank because I forget to fill up after the last ride and boy did I regret that
. Never in my life have I paid over 5 bucks for a gallon of gas
. I could understand it if I lived somewhere like Cali where you at least get beautiful weather to ride in along with some awesome roads but this is southeast Michigan where is flat straight and nothing but city riding.

Gotcha beat
Paid $4.39 to $4.49...saw $4.79(93 octane)
My last stop, at a place I thought should not be too much more if any...$5.24!!!
Price gouging b*stards!
I only needed 3 gallons and the pump had already taken my card by the time it flashed the price...which wasn't on the big digital parking lot sigh, how convinient.
Still mid $4 everywhere else, which is bad enough.

Mostly important for your cars and trucks but anytime you gas up it will be more expensive the next time. I’m gassing up before I get to half tank now instead of running all the way to empty. Of course the bikes are always parked with full tanks.
I got a ride in with Twobrothersbusa on Saturday to Deals Gap and surrounding area. The gas wasn’t cheap in Tellico either.
Here is one the photographers got.
I'm with you...all I rode this morning was a shovel and snow blower.....and a pair of snowshoes...

The fuel prices you guys in the states are paying is peanuts!
It’s $12 a gallon for the low octane fuel here in NZ, and it’s rumoured to hit $15 by next week….. it’s no joke .
