Had a few folks get together for a day trip "upstate" New York. It was myself, JohnStein, CAJ from Long Island, 2Quik and BusaBabby from Yonkers and RobT and wife (sorry forgot name trying to void out "bad moments"
) from Conneticut. We did meet Camaroguy, but he slept in and found us after we had ridden the Bear Mtn. twisties. 2Quik, Mark, said we had a Castle to see... it was just up the Parkway about 30 minutes or so... on a Busa... More on that later. It was an adventure, good riding, and a lot of fun!
Carl, CAJ, and I met as planned, on time. John called my cell and let us know he was running late but we made it all work and got off of Long Island without too much trouble. Well, until we hit the toll booths at the Whitestone Bridge. Carl and John both had EZ-Pass. I had cash. I beat them through toll, (Johns pass malfunctioned)and was left standing looking at them looking for me on the other side. They finally saw me 1/4 mile down the road dodging cages doing the jumping jacks and we were back on the road. Until we missed it, and ended up on the surface streets of the Bronx...
Let me tell ya, that's some riding there. A mix of motocross, Moto GP and Mad Max all mixed together! Woo hoo, steel plates are a blast to ride over.
So finally we met up with Mark (2Quik) and wife Linda (Busababby).
Bear with me, I have numerous pics to post. I will end with the money shot and hopefully Mark will post his up too.
This is John explaining how he missed the big sign and landed us in the bronx.
