Hey FredT

Fred will you have a open bunk in your RV? I'll have cold "BLUE" if ya do.
I have a job in Ohio and will not get home untill late Friday nite. I can tent it if your filled up

Brian

 

[Fred T]

Probably Brian

I think I can fit you in somewhere. If Jeff Allen uses a bunk you guys might have to go buddy class on the top bunk, but it's pretty big. We'll work out something.
Fred

 

[rickshaw]

good buddies

wow, you guys are very liberal, a threesome:confused:

does the lmc endorse this in their charter????

 

[Fly'nBrian]

Thanks Fred

Thanks Fred ole buddy! Watch it Rick:p The DRZ has been known to roost folks,:D

Brian

 

[Loctite]

Hello Fred - Throw a couple more burger's on the grill as Badgerman and I will be over Sat. morning. Brian, add a second DRZ to roost the pumpkins. I am all healed up from the National and ready to ride. Thanks, Craig

 

[rickshaw]

forecast update

looks like the rain will hold off for the ride. traction will be excellent. let the roost fest begin, and Brian, I got a brand new S-12 with your name on it:p

pumpkin sweep:eek:

 

[fatherandson]

Do you have to ride a slow four stroke to be included in the roost fest or can my rip-n-snort 300 exc participate???? If so, I will change rear tire...
more spin = more roost!!!!!
Oops...badgerman is coming...forget the slow comment...
How about HEAVY four stroke???

:p

pumpkin preride

 

[Fly'nBrian]

Trash talk'n

Hmmmm......pumpkin roast eeerrr roost, lets see F&S is fast to get roosted by all but Badgerman and too fast to roost us meer mortals. The DRZ's will roost the 4-smoke eeerrr stroke pumpkins. Now the kaw's will get roosted by everybody. I guess only the blue buzzbombs will be clean after the roostfest.

Unless Brian and fred take the shortcuts (which I know them all) Right F&S sr.;)

Brian

PS every one better bring their hip boots its about to get deep here and around the campfire:p

Not to worry. I am planning to take it easy due to the fact that I am now…………..well…………….old. I have also been having trouble with my neck and right shoulder (a short story that does not involve dirt bikes). I spent last weekend stoned silly on Flexerils the doctor gave me. I have a few left if anyone is interested after the ride (Mark)! Besides, my little blue bike doesn’t roost much anyway.

 

[rickshaw]

KTM 4 smoke?

Badgerman, I need all of those Flexeril's to help sides - (lmao):cool:

I think FlynBrian needs to bring a body suit!!!

triplephatmx, are getting any of this???

 

[Fly'nBrian]

BODY SUIT!!!!!!!!!!

Must be the PUMPKIN talk is going to get "Really Deep", I hope that I don't forget the glass slippers. I hear them DRZ's can turn in to Pumpkins if they stay out to late.

Now how does that go.... Peter, Peter Pumpkin eater..... HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Brian

 

[Fred T]

Go ahead and roost....

all that trail crap that the winds of October have blown over them away and get it out of my way so I don't hit anything and bruise my Super Senior Class Body! :)

Once again I think I will qualify for the Super Senoir Class unless the "Old Man Maurer" rides too. Hey you young whips talk about roostin' and I'm just happy to make it to the end of the trail at days end....he he he! Don't Roost the cook or you'll find yourself with "roost" seasoning on your burger. :p

Oh, BTW I do have a almost new S-12 that "officially" throws roost if anyone happens to be slow enough to be behind me.

See ya all Fri nite or Sat AM, I'm rrrrrready!

 

[jrccc20967]

I am hope to make it up to LMC in time for Saterday ride.It look's like I will be the only one from around this area.Uncle Denny is still sick.You all can go ripping around but I was told by 2 smart former enduro guys to treat it like a trail ride:D . shoot I for got this is a trail ride so lets have fun.

 

[triplephatmx]

Suzy-Q Riders Just Never Learn!!

Sorry Cryin', er, I mean FLY'N Brian, but the ol' KaTooM roost shall get very deep indeed this weekend. Afterall, it is October and Pumpkins Rule!! If the the 400 of Rick and myself isn't enough for ya', my partner in crime "Iceman" will be happy to introduce you to the earth moving capabilites of his mighty 520 E/XC! So just sit back on that banana of yours and follow the leaders!!

OOOOHHHH Yeah!! Ima hear it now!! You got my back Rick?!?!:p

And since I have not met anyone (Fly'n Brian included) I am of course partaking in the friendly banter with the utmost sarcasm......except the part about the....Ahhh, nevermind I meant every smack talkin' word - LOL!!!!!:silly:

 

[Jeff Allen]

Count my head in there F&S, for Saturday only though :( so Fly'brian you can have Fred all to your self :p
The bikes back together with just a few dents and scratches on her but she'll make it. All I need to do is just find a way to make a 125'er throw some roost:p

 

[Hiller]

3, maybe 4 more

Got confirmation last night that myself and 2 friends will be joining the ride for sure. My wife may ride also, if there are some slower riders for her to ride with. (TTR 125L)

I will be contributing to the pumpkin patch (forcasting a pumpkin sweep) and my friends will be kicking....errrr....riding for team blueberry! ! ! !

We'll be arriving ~9:00AM Sat, for a Sat only ride.

 

[WALKMAN]

just to let ya'll know it's bow season and GREEN is the color of choice, save all that orange for next month and watch out we may just sneak up on you! right fred

 

[fatherandson]

WEAR YOUR COLORS PROUDLY!!!!

I am looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting the new guys. We will have fun rain or shine. The Saturday only riders should definitely plan to stick around for Dinner by Fred. It will allow us all time to tell stories and feed our faces.

Time to back the truck and head north.

 

[fatherandson]

COLORS

THAT WAS FROM MY SON WHO SOLD ME A PINK AND PURPLE MOTORCYCLE...

IT'S THAT MTM EXC 300 (THE MARY TYLER MOORE MODEL) THAT NOBODY CAUGHT THE LAST TIME I POSTED...

I'LL BE THE SAINT NICK LOOK ALIKE ALL DRESSED IN RED...

I'M HERE AND IT'S WONDERFUL, GREAT TRACTION...

(SURE HOPE THE RAIN STOPS ON SCHEDULE TONITE)

SEE YA'ALL,

MIKE SR

 

[BadgerMan]

MTM (Moto ‘Til Monday) beats KTM (Kick ‘Til Monday)! Actually, I used to ride a pink and purple KTM 250EXC just like your 300. I only had to “kick ‘til Monday” once, when the ignition went bad. I had it replaced with a new lower ignition unit. The cost……………..$125.00! And everybody thinks KTM parts are expensive. Seeya tomorrow morning.

 

[fatherandson]

mtm

Yeah, Jr replaced the lower unit in this one too...

we used to have to unload it at the top of the hill there by the LMC clubgrounds... just to start it...

Mike Sr

 

[Fly'nBrian]

I am back and ready!!!

I hear tell that the reason that the pumpkins roost so much and go so fast is cause there is a yellow bike waiting to pass. hehehehe!!

I should be there 8:30ish

Brian

 

[jrccc20967]

I just want everyone know that I sure missed the ride (again). I was on my way up Late Friday night and the Bronco died. I tried everything but ended up getting a tow back home. I hope to see some of you at Rose City.Maybe even a one day trip some where. I sure wish that I was sitting around the camp fire instead of this computer. Wish all well. Big Jim

The only way a Pumpkin can roost a DRZ is when the DRZ is passing or stalled in a corner. Heavy rain at 80mph HURTS, Badgerman is insanly fast.

Now feel free to add any and all awards plus important stuff to the post.

Thanks to all who attended. Special thanks to the Lansing Motorcycle club for the use of the club grounds for our event.


Brian.
