Yeah, I seem to remember something about having a job at one time. I think you are right, it did interfere my riding at times. ;D

OTOH, it did come in handy when I wanted to buy another bike.

I was thinking the same thing. On bright side, work keeps me from wearing out the bike too fast.

Hey this is looking better all the time.

I am at the Indy Moto GP this weekend and talked to our Yamaha district sales rep yesterday. He is working in the Yamaha display area and said he saw our mention of this ride on Niehaus Cycles facbook page. He is excited about it and says he will keep in touch with me about the ride. He hopes to be able to ride his Super Tenere down there and join us for the ride. If he can't make it for the ride, he should be able to make it for the after the ride social hour(s) and meet you all and perhaps even bring a bit of Yamaha SWAG. Brad Niehaus also told me that he should have some SWAG for me to bring there for S10 riders.

BTW, Tom, our district sales rep is on his second S10. Freak has his first one. Tom gets a new Yamaha each year, so when it was time to order one for this year, he ordered another Super Tenere. What a guy!

I was just looking for a nice ride, but SWAG on top of it!!! Sounds great Fred and please tell your people thanks.
It is getting closer and the weather is starting to cool off. It's gonna be a great time..

Work intrudes....I have to be in Boston that whole week, returning Friday evening, unfortunately.

I may be able to get out a day early, but won't know until middle of that week.

I'm still planning on getting to hotel later Saturday afternoon, if you will still have me (shoot, even if you won't...being unwelcome never stopped me). Allows us time to get likker'd up, shoot out street lights and generally terrorize the populace (oh, wait, for a second I thought this was a BMW gathering).
