@Sandwich , 29ers aren't cool, but neither am I, so it works out. I also ride a Buell motorcycle, so I'm used to non-acceptance and ridicule from both Harley owners and sportbike riders.

Although to be fair, you may have placed higher if not for the frequent visits to the "bong shed" during the timed sections.

And yes, I want that hat.

Even though I live in CO, I've actually never smoked weed, ever.

I wondered why the URL said crossroadcommons or something.

 

[kidwoo]

You might need to start smoking weed.

So the steel hardtail proto, what wheel size is that?

I'm very seriously considering road tripping down to the Moab weekend in November. Anybody from the PNW wanna carpool?

 

[kidwoo]

pick me up on your way

 

[HAB]

That's only like an 8 hour detour

 

[kidwoo]

No it's not.

It's seven hours and thirty minutes. Don't exaggerate.

 

[HAB]

It's probably more than 8 hours when you account for the ability to speed egregiously through the desert, as compared down the relatively heavily policed I5.

 

[kidwoo]

Dude you pick me up and highway 50 is how you cross nevada.

110mph average.

So honestly like a 5 hour detour when your really do the math.

 

[HAB]

I have been curious to find out how fast my delimited S4 will actually go...

Que??

You don't have freeways in Seattle?

 

[HAB]

You don't have freeways in Seattle?

None with light enough traffic to get away with it.

 

[Metamorphic]

Can't help myself, have to share this beauty, stole it off GG's Bookface.

 

[StiHacka]

None with light enough traffic to get away with it.

In my experience, there are not many roads that see much traffic between 2-3am on Saturdays or Sundays.
My S80T6 had nothing on your S4 but it could get pretty fast out there.

 

[4130biker]

29" OD

I see what you did there

Ooooohhhhh Wheel size(s)?

speeding like that at night makes me super nervous - can't see far enough ahead to scope cops, although once you get up there reaction/braking time is pretty tough. this reminds me, i need to get a new radar detector . . .

 

[mtg]

Ooooohhhhh Wheel size(s)?

27.5" on that one; it's a new demo bike that we just built

 

[SuboptimusPrime]

So, so hot. If (when) I get a MegaTrail to match my GG/DH it shall be black and gold.

Find a nice wide and safe stretch of freeway between two exists, do a dry run first, ....

You could not save your ass by braking for a speed trap at speeds in tripe digits even in the daylight.

 

[jackalope]

Get this:

and a Dodge Charger

and you'll be in Moab in under 4 hours. Hell, that's a day trip!

 

[Flo33]

For a sec I thought him serious.
Got me

 

[junkyard]

Im trying to convince my wife to go. Shes a little pregnant and complains that her back hurts if in the car for more than two hours. I think its unreasonable to average over 300mph with a trailer, or to take 6 days to get there. Our two year old needs little convincing to go i just have to say "camping" and shes in.

 

[mtg]

If you're planning on coming down, make sure to email us an rsvp so we have an idea of how many people are going for logistics planning.

 

[djjohnr]

Highway 50, middle of the night, 130mph on cruise control.

Please, no one believes you can go fast on a bike with such tiny bitch wheels. Plus, if you ran over even a nickel you'd get ejected over the bars with the shitty angular momentum of a pico wheel. Now maybe if you were riding something as efficient as this it could be done -
