-Stickers- If you want I can make some up that look the same as the logo at the top of the page. They will be a single color only. If this is good for everyone let me know and I will cut some.

- Ride- Why don't we meet at the same place we meet last time, Miss Bellows Falls Diner, Bellows Fall, VT. If there are people that want to meet up along the way, pick a place and a time. If there is anyone that has a long travel to make this ride and wants a place to crash the night before let me know.

- Route- I am open for sugestions. This is a start 121, 11, 100, 73, 53, 7, 116, 17, 100, 100B, 89 avoid downtown Montplier, 2, 14, 110N, back road through Straford, 132,cross into NH, 10, a couple of back roads, 4 to Concord.

FTMS The sticker sound cool. Choice of single colors? Red would look cool on my tinted windscreen. I think I'm in for the ride on the 9th too.

Fastest color in the world (red) please. Also, since you have to close the shop on the 9th I'll help you out. I'll need new tires probably by the end of Sept. beginning of October and I'm going to convince my buddy he does to. We'll come up to you and have ya shoe them on for your prices. Then go out for a ride. I'm thinking Pirelli Diablo Strada's or Pilot Roads. Something rather affordable and long mileage.

Depending on the size I might take 3 (fast ones) altogether. I'll put a couple on my econo commuter.

not to interrupt, but mike are you selling the track sv650 you have? ones on craigslist in ma.

on track i think i could go for a sticker or two but i think im going to paint my fairings army olive green or khaki and get my frame painted black in the winter. i just dont know if i want to spend the money for street fighter stuff. but i will be getting rid of my lower fairing as i dont like it any more.

either day is fine with me too. We just need to pick one so lets start a vote. 9 or 10?

FTMS: I just started a thread in general discussion about the stickers. I can have them made with all four colors but I don't know if that is worth it when you can do it for free (or is it free?). I would like to have one of yours, Candy Blue of course. the sleekest and sexyest color. If you want to post in that same thread I don't mind at all if you want to offer a single color sticker for your price or free or whatever.

I vote the 9th by the way!

9:00 at Bellows Falls sounds good to me. I would leave Manchester around 7:40 so I can have breakfast with mrs. Bellows.

Coming from the North

I'm already up in Burlington so it's hard for me to justify driving all the way to bellows falls when the ride will swing within 25miles of my house. I'll meet up with y'all at the White River Golf Club just 4 miles before you turn onto 73 (just south of Rochester) if thats cool. Can anyone who's been on the ride give me a reasonable ETA for when you'll be rollin thru?
Google says 2 hours. I'm sure you'll do it a tad faster.

Yeah Aaron I`m selling it to my son. He just got his permit and is taking the MSF course in a couple of weeks. I acually let him ride the superhawk around the neighborhood last sat. Now back to the thread.
Either day is ok with me, but why don`t we make it the 10th so FTMS doesn`t have to close shop?

NovaWildcat08, if things run like they did last time, by the time everyone is done eating and topping off gas we left Bellows Falls at about 9:45. I would have to say that put us up there around 11:30. Last time we were in Brandon around 12:00 for lunch.

10th works for me too. let just make it the 10th then since nobody else wants to vote. THATS IT, WE GO ON THE 10TH BELLOWS FALLS AT 0900. Aaron, I will meet you at shell at exit 4 at 7:00, don't give me any bull excuses about your exhaust either, its 3 weeks away, get it done or some one in the area can let you use thier old stock exhaust. your going. Anyone else who wants to meet in nashua can be there too and we will take 101 straight out to bellows falls, 1hr 52min.

i can try for the 10th. i should have my exhaust done tomorrow or latest by saturaday depending what we do. i want to bring my camera but its far to heavy for that long of a ride. if i had a tank bag i would bring it for sure.... ideas are brewing.... plus i might need to rejet for single side single can exhaust. seems most logical right now.

I'll be coming up from Lexington MA and I can meet you guys in Nashua. I have a tank bag (always use it since I got it) and if the camera is huge I have saddle bags also I can strap on. Let me know.

i was thinking i might buy a tankbag. no offense but i dont know if i want to have someone else holding on to my camera because i dont have them insured yet( ireally should look into it haha) and if something happens i want it to be my fault. but who knows maybe im just a little sketched out of unknown roads right now haha. i might still take up the offers though or i might try and build a quick back seat rack for stuff that hooks to the bottom of the seat. ideas ideas ideas.

FTMS, thanks for the heads up on time. I'll be waiting for you guys there at the Golf Club, but no real reason to stop for introductions and such if we'll be doing lunch in Brandon. I'll just join the parade and then meet all of y'all during lunch. I'd meet up with you in Brandon, but I've never run 73 so i'll check it out. Lookin forward to the ride fellas.

Is anyone going? I'm up in the air about it. With my luck the weather will be great until we get way up there than I'll catch 2" hail and it'll knock me unconsious, I'll end up in a ditch and no body will notice and I'll be left for the moose to eat me. Yeah, I've already thought it all through.
