Session on Sunday, November 08.
Meeting at Mangelsens under the sign for those in Omaha at 9 A.M. sharp. Planning on riding at 9:30 A.M. at DeLong Ave. in C.B. as a starter then move on and go other places.

Crowdy · 11-07-2009, 03:40 PM

I will be there. I think that I'll be riding further up on that street you guys park on starting at about 9:15 or so. It's not as intimidating.

Crowdy · 11-08-2009, 08:56 PM

Some pics from today. Some of them are a little blurry.

Crowdy · 11-08-2009, 08:59 PM

5 more, not quite as blurry.

OmahaRider · 11-08-2009, 09:18 PM

Awesome pictures!!!!! It was a great day. Video soon to come

Crowdy · 11-08-2009, 10:23 PM

I forgot to ask if anyone else besides me has Wednesday--Veteran's Day--off. I'm free from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.

RanRye · 11-09-2009, 08:50 AM

Nice! Where are the pics from? Did y'all hit up the hill in CB?

It is actually very close to that hill where you left part of chin and most of your forearm on the pavement. Although I am sure it was in real nasty shape when you were in town.

When you coming back Josh?

I have to be back at five. I just don't want to waste a day off with no family responsibilities while it's still nice. I'm thinkin' of heading out to Chalco Hills as long as there isn't a lot of traffic there.

Those are some great pics. I had commitments with my son that morning or I would've been there. Next time I'll try and work it out so I can bring him along. Still have a few aches from Saturday. My girlfriend told me it was from "stupidity and age".

Quick question, is there any place in Omaha that sells decent bushings? I'm using Doh Dohs and could obviously use an upgrade.
