And I ride past some crazy assed looking Rocket III parked at Cycle Solutions on route 33 just before the Gordonsville/Barborsville Cr. I was going to turn around and head back but my riding buddy was on a Ducati. I didn't want any of the other bikes catching oil leaks from it.

I figured it was. I'm in that area pretty often. Momma's Subs is a place where I like to eat. I'll see ya again I'm sure.

Just keep an eye out for black ZZR1200 and a guy with a sanitation dept. yellow jacket. I usually have a gaggle of idiots in tow.

You'll be easy to spot... the only black ZZR12 that wants to race.

Do you ever bring your R3... or are you still waiting to buy one?

BTW, the Fredericksburg Bike Show is this weekend. I hadn't planned to go, but my painter has a booth there... and he has my test panels done.

I don't have a rocket III. I steal the keys for britman's as needed. I'm here for the ambiance and abuse. I also like being on a forum where I am roughly half the age of its constituency .

My racing days are over. I have no more expendable organs. Route 211 through Thornton Gap took all I had.

Sorry to hear about your Thornton Gap experience... glad you're here to tell the tale!

I'll look for you around Gordonsville, or if you see me parked somewhere don't be shy about introducing yourself. All the other "old guys" around here ride Harleys... boring.

I need a new tour guide for your area. I let you know the next time I'm up that way. I'd like to tag along on some of your better roads.

I still ride at a fairly spirited pace so I shouldn't hold you up too badly.
