Fly'n Ducs!!! :) Mini Trip Report!

[Motoman_AZ]

A bunch of us met this morning at "The Place" on Bell. We enjoyed a great staff, great conversation, new faces and good laughs this morning....





afterward a few of us headed out to get the current SouthWestRides Tag 2011.....

Here's the tag.....



Then we moved on to the next tag......



And then found a little place to play for a bit and see how street bikes fly!!!!

Curt was a natural!!!



Dean was very aggressive right away and so cool hearing that bike gett'n it and then watching it get airborne!



Here's another pass by Dean! Very consistent!



Tom was up next..... Looks like he might have chopped the throttle a bit! But good air no less!

I don't remember Steve going through... I don't have a picture.... hmmm!

Well I was up next. I can't believe how nervous I felt building it all up in my head. I handed my camera to Dean and made a few passes......



That felt pretty good....let's try it again!



Hmmmm..... cushy landing and flying straight! I love this!!!!





We (I) started getting nervous that we were getting a crowd.... so we agreed to come back another time with Dean's equipment and get some clear shots! Thanks guys for all the fun this morning! I came into work still with alot of adrenaline in me!!!! Loving this HYPERMOTARD!!!!

Curt and I have the most MX experience... but the Hyper is nothing like jumping MX.... steady throttle, lightly off the seat, gripping tank with legs and off you go! UNBELIEVABLE how smooth the Hyper lands! Suspension was perfect!



I suck at whips... can't image doing one on purpose on the hyper!!!

Cool stuff! What speeds were you hitting the hill? There's something like this on a road near me, but I have to be doing 70-ish before I start getting air. Leettle sceery at those speeds for me.

Ive yet to put 1/10 of a mile on my Hyper, it was delivered early December.

You guys do realize they make states (or countries) where it doesn't snow don't you

Now I feel bad about whining that it's only 53F (12C) here today with sunshine and I have to put on the Tour Master jacket!
