Christian's bike

I also have the Kyle racing / Ohlins steering damper.
I had it cranked up to 12th position and I think it worked great as I felt I could trust the front end better, more feeling, more stability, worth it!

John's bike

John's bike started as a base model, but he now has more carbon fiber than we do on the S!
Of course he thinks he has a MotoGP machine with Alice and Shell sponsorship stickers..
The most dramatic thing was the sex change from Leo Vinci to Termi !!!!

Warning: Side Effects!

I forgot the disclaimer that the previously mentioned sex change from Leo Vinci to Termi has SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS
but again John did not read or understand the warning labels
He should change it back as the symptoms seem to persist,
and I could not take any "normal" photo of John, maybe a MotoGP wannabe natural reaction to cameras

all kidding aside, it was a great sunday morning ride ... good group of riders, great weather, great roads.

oh, and another thing ... my bike has more miles on it than the other 4 in the group put together.

We have the photos. We didn't post them cause we don't want to embarrass that fuzzy little girl.

There is a bike missing; MINE! I need to get back up in the mountains with you guys. Let me know the time and date. It's good to see Matt, we had a great ride on new years. I am trying to get some time off for the December 1st Laguna Seca event.
