K11 Owners Group

[mnb]

There's a local forum that I sort of participate in called the Bay Area Riders Forum. It's my tertiary forum, my primary ones being South Bay Riders and here, but the thing I like about BARF is they're big on social events.

Barf tends to be younger people on crotch rockets. Lots of them do trackdays, but they have their newbies, too. And they've been hit by the motard fad.

Anyways, they do a weekly meet that's like a mile from my house. The meet at a Starbucks and then do dinner. When there is sufficient daylight, they do a 'pre-ride.' This Tuesday saw the first pre-ride of the year, a quick loop around Hicks Rd and Mount Umuhnum (god knows if I ever spell that right).

I volunteered to sweep and halfway through, someone else told me they'd sweep (I didn't even have to beg), so I got to kick it up a bit.

Ride ends and we get to Starbucks and chat and then head out to dinner. After dinner, as everyone's leaving a guy is getting on his bike next to me and says, "Whoa, you took THAT on the ride?" looking at my K1100LT.

I just said, "Yeah, sure" but I was thinking, "yeah and I was dusting your crotch rocket on this relic." Anything more than 5 years old is a classic to these newbs...
