Yamaha newb in St. Louis

[Andy]

Sat would be the best for a ride. I could get up that way around 6 or 7 pm for a bike night maybe. I'm about 30 min south of st. louis. Have heard adds on radio about big st. charles motorsports calender search. I think one is coming up soon.

How's it coming along Enjarin? I know you just recently passed the msf and I don't want to rush ya at all or take you out of your comfort zone I'm just curious if you're becoming more comfortable on the road? If we did this on the great river road that is a pretty simple ride with just nice scenery so if you're getting better and feel up to trying I think you'd be fine bro

It's a slow process for me. Heat wave has been severely limiting my riding time. Not many miles on the bike yet (I mean less than 100!) so not comfortable going just anywhere. Still stalling uphill at stoplights and other stuff telling me I need to get out more. Next week is supposed to be cooler so hopefully I'll be able to ride to work every day.

My workdays rotate unfortunately but a Sat or Sun would probably be best.
? of what works 4 everybody.

 

[Sage]

I'm a few hours north like daddyrack, but I'd be cool riding down sometime possibly

The next calendar search is Thursday. I'll be going to that. I do some photography and that will definitely be fun. Took some pics out there two weekends ago of a stunt rider exhibition.

I have random days off during the week but my weekends are filled for the next three weekends. Calendar girl searches are a good time if we ever wanna meet up there. River road is also a great ride.

How did you like the gs500f as a starter bike?

Actually it was a pretty fun bike minus the too soft fork springs. It was easy to toss around, hardly used any fuel, and very simple.

Soon as the heat breaks, let's pick date to meet up.

Congrats on the purchase and welcome to the forums man. I live in collinsville and I'm always lookin for someone to ride with. If you ever wanna meet up some time and go for a ride just let me know. I just wish this damn heat would go away cause its not much fun riding right now lol.

Congrats on the new purchase. I purchased my black fz6r back in April. I'm located in Glen Carbon and I'm always looking to ride with people in the area. I wish it would cool down too.

Where was everyone when I lived down there and had my 6r? I lived 10 min north of Edwardsville until 2 years ago.

[mmarten]

I've been in the area for about 5 years but I never had a bike until recently. Lol

Welcome to the party!

 

[CaseyJones]

Anyone have a date in mind for a St. louis area meet? Was thinking maybe in 2 to 3 weeks.

 

[mmarten]

If people are still going for a weekend ride then I'm free on the weekend in 2 or 3 weeks.

 

[DubiousDrummer]

Aw man... I'm orginally from St. Louis. Manchester area. But I haven't been back there in a while. Stupid work. Enjoy the warm summer on the new ride enough for me, too.

Warm has been an understatement for the past month.
