Looks like fun. Might go try that on a much easier pace in the fall I have a place to stay right up there.

Good luck and hope those energy drinks help! Kick those guys butts!

Of coarse its fun. You weren't there! You can't stay there. They don't want you either. And YES the energy drinks will help. Help us deal with you running around spewing things from your mouth!

Goodbye!

OK Gas, this is my thread and I don't want that Drewpy/Psychochild drama in here. I just wanted to post about my ride. I have met psychochild before on a few rides and she has been nothing but nice to me. I haven't met drewpy but i'm sure I will eventually as he rides in the same group I do. I dont want to get involved in their past.

Jenna, thank you for the energy drinks. They were a big help.

I was able to complete 618miles of curves in 11 hours. I had a blast. Got a performance award from a trooper as well but sometimes you have to pay to play. Still feel great and place to ride a few hundred more tomorrow.

sorry you got a ticket, how fast were you going and in what mph zone? or simply stated: What was your citation?

HokieDNA01 · 04-04-2010, 12:14 AM

It was only 68 in a 55 so not bad at all. We were running 140mph on many straights so I feel lucky that it was a minor offence. I'll be calling the DA soon and asking for a "civil penalty". I heard you pay a little extra and no points. Sounds good to me. I had a clean driving record till now.

Yeh it works 99% of the time. Unless the judge or prosecutor has a tick up their ass that day. Always ask for the plea deal when you show up for court. Usually you will get a non moving violation, obstruction of traffic, failure to signal, and the one I really like, illegally exiting the roadway ($550, ask me how I know that price)

Hokie, do you ride straight for 11 hours and just stop for gas? or are there rest breaks? I don't even want to do that many miles in a car with a radio, pit stops and food, let alone hunched over a sportbike.

Yes and you could always make out double. With my last cage speeding ticket i was doing 14 over. I took the plea deal which dropped both points off of the ticket, and moved the ticket from 14mph to 4mph, as long as I paid the $130 plus court fees. Then I got to the judge, and told him what happened, and he drives that same stretch of highway trap every day. He dropped my fine from $130 to $20.

What a RIDE!

Hokie did great, and rode the wheels off that bike! We recovered from a 45 delay, and a 100 mile navigation error (both dumb mistakes on my part), and completed it with 7 minutes to spare! Then got it a little 230-mile ride Sunday with our new FJR buddies to cap it all off.

If you've never ridden the Ozarks in the N Arkansas hill country, it's beautiful territory with many, many outstanding roads - highly recommended. Now if we can just keep these performance awards off our driving records....
