RIDERS OF MAEC

Think we are planning on 12:30ish. Rob is running an errand now and we'll probably go out when he gets back.

It was really foggy and cold here this am so we didn't head out. Hoping to get a ride in later when it clears up. Supposed to be warm and sunny later!

My wife has been riding for several years, just this bike is new to her. She had an older 250 way back, then rode a GS500, then tried my SV650 but never got comfortable on it- too tall and top heavy for her. Anyway, the 250 is perfect for her, light and nimble.

Oh wow, SV650 is supposed to be a great bike (Sonya had been riding my Ninja 650 until this summer, supposed to be similar). Is your wife on the small side? For Sonya, the 250 was a bit too small, the 650 was about right.

Had a great time out there with Robert and Shawn this morning. A bit brisk, but other than that wonderful day of riding. Won't get too many more of those before winter sets in and the bike gets garaged

I had a good time! sorry for Allmost putting my bike down twice in front of you all. By far the scary part was the 1000 turbo fly by at 200! fuck!

yeah it was a good ride. kinda wish we could have rode a bit more. but over all i had fun. great saves on the bike robert. man that was sure a close one at the stop light. your right about rob. it was crazy how i was going like 135 and rob was right next to me playing with the throttle and then he puts the hammer to it and pull away from me like i was sitting still. kinda crazy how hard his bike pulls at 140

We headed out later on Sunday, and it was perfect riding weather. Sorry we didn't get to meet up with you guys. It is supposed to even nicer this weekend, anyone up for riding? Beartooth cruise on two wheels?


My wife is about 5'6" and couldn't flat foot the SV650, even with her boots on (granted they don't really have much heel). The SV is just kind of top heavy for her and she never felt as confident as she does on the smaller bikes. The 250 will still hit triple digits so it is more than fast enough for her. The 250 is a great toy to have, even I grin from ear to ear when I ride it. It is honestly more fun in the twisties than my 9R, because it is so incredibly nimble. She will probably step up to a NInja 500 after a couple of seasons. It also has a low seat height and center of gravity. The 250 was just such a good deal we couldn't pass it up- I found it on ebay but it was right here in Billings. 2009 model in Candy Thunder Blue, 930 miles on it, as-new condition for $2076. I got her a custom plate "IKNDY"

Holy crap Eric, I almost had to put that through Google translator, lol.

I used to ride up in the mountains a bit when I lived in Sheridan. What type of riding do you do in Lovell? Flatlands, technical, motorcross, mountains (are there mountains in Lovell?)?

Maybe I'll get another dirt bike one of these days and I can join in on some of that fun too. Still have my off-road riding gear.
