    Happy New Year everyone!

    Now that its 2006 I hope we all have a fantastic year with plenty of time to ride and have fun!

    If people are willing to share some of their biking stories from 2005 I'm sure it would be very entertaining..and informative!:D

    Ride safe! ;)

    I'll be moving to Ireland this summer and one of the things I'll miss from the US is the group of bikers I ride with and some of the rides we go on.

    One in particular is a ride we do every September to remember those who died on 9-11, especially the fire and rescue folks. The ride goes from Boston to New York City and is police escorted all the way. Once in NYC, we ride all around Manhattan to Ground Zero without stopping. The NYPD Motorcycle Cops block off all intersections and do not let any cars near us. It's always a great ride. The past couple of years we have had around 300 bikes. In 2003 we had roughly 5000 bikes. That was choas!

    errr, biking stories... I remembered my friend got his brand NEW Hyosung GT650R last September. He took me for a spin, driving mad fast to impress me or smth :) After our small rideout, he told me I could sit on his bike (I didn't know how to drive it yet) if I wanted :) oh, yes! I threw my leg over the bike and... fell down with it... Oooops, exhaust scrached, handlebar scratched, front brake lever broken...
