I've been meeting more and more local riders lately. A friend of mine even started a facebook group called "Gaithersburg Riders" since 90% of us live in or around Gaithersburg Maryland in Montgomery County.

For a long time it was me and a friend on scooters, then 3 of us, then I got a motorcycle.... fast forward a few years and we've had just over 10 people riding at once. All are welcome and we ride almost every weekend. My sister-in-law swears we've starter a motorcycle gang. Anyway, here's some of the guys

Matthew (mysef) FZ6R
Joe Ninja 650
Frankie FZ6R
Brenden 1980 XS400
John rides my wife's Ninja 250 or whatever is available
Christine, my wife. Likes to ride and has great skills but REALLY SCARED of traffic. She doesn't ride with us much.
Brice Ninja 500
Adam Ninja 500
Rabi GS500E
Karl Cleveland Cycle Works "Tha Heist"
Joe (SubXero) Ninja 250r
Billy GS500F
Sean Ninja 650

Truth be told, most weekends it's only 4 or 5 of us at a time, but like I said, all are welcome anytime we ride! Join the facebook group or send me an email and I'll include you when we start talking about rides.

Please do Scott. I feel like I've gotten to know quite a few of you guys online and would like to meet you in person one day. Even though we have a townhouse here, we can squeeze one more bike in the garage and have a spare bed.

Actually, a few weeks ago we had 6 bikes in my 1 car garage and people sleeping on couches and floors.... If anyone is ever on your way through and needs a place to crash, let me know.

Hey, Aberdeen isnt too far north for me to ride down for a good day.

Names Steve and ive had the license for a week, the FZ6R for two. Bought my baby brand new with 2 miles, and have 520 on it now. A good 200 was from the Sunday MDA Ride for Life up to Bethlehem.

Is the Facebook group to join the "Gaithersburg Riders"? Id love to have any and all excuses to ride all day.

Yes, almost positive it's called Gaithersburg Riders, Steve. My uncle recently passed, but he lived in Aberdeen and rode a big Harley. Nice area out there, just over an hour drive when I go to visit family. We're all busy Saturday but we might try to put something together on Sunday. I'll post up here if it looks good.

We also want to plan a ride to Harper's Ferry. I know it's not the best riding roads, but we try to get there once or twice a year. A few cars will come with, dump our gear, walk the river and the town, maybe picnic with the ladies. It'll be fun.

Im not seeing Gaithersburg Riders, or any other variation of rider. I am a member of the FZ6R-Forum Members group though, and could probably find you and add myself to the group that way.

I can also try and drag my brother along on his Ninja 250.

Well then, I think we need to start making plans!! :D

I'll start asking my friends, family, and local riders if they have any trips planned this summer.

definitely!

though, right now I'm limiting my riding to my commute... went on a ride up near Frederick a couple weeks ago, and my tires and chain are at that point where it just doesn't ride right in the turns and hills.... I may even have to cut down on my commuting until the chain comes in and I can get it and new tires on to make them all happy again... so much to do.... so little $$$

Planning a ride

Saturday the 18th (next weekend) we're gonna try to get a ride together. More noobs than we're used to, so nothing crazy, no one will push you harder than you want to go. Start in Gaithersburg and probably ride through Damascus and maybe Howard County, maybe Frederick county. Mostly a nice easy ride. If you're in the FB group, I'll post something in the next day or two when I find a time that works for most. If you hate facebook but want in, shoot me a pm.
