Nathan here from Davenport, IA. I have recently become the Iowa chapter leader for the VMOA. I am going to be trying to set up some rides and get togethers here in the Quad Cities. I usually make it to at least one Bike Night a week around here (usually Ducky's in Andalusia, IL). Please PM me if for direct email contact on these round ups. I will also have these posted here http://www.vmoa.net/xoops/modules/content/index.php?id=13 on the VMOA "great plains" regional news page.

Thanks and nice to meet you all.

Sent you a PM. I decided to keep my bike and would like to meet up sometime and go for a ride. I finally found another v-max rider near me. Im going to tell him about this site and try to get him to ride along. A lot of heads turn everywhere I ride my bike, it would be bad a$$ to be riding around with a few more maxs. I only live about 35 miles from Davenport, let me know if you ever want to go for a ride.

I know he does and since he is now the IA VMOA director we can all have dinner on the VMOA... That is if you belong...

He is planning a ride I believe. Hopefully he will wait for 2009 as it looks like my bike MIGHT be done by then...:bang head: :bang head:

I have an awesome ride I want to take up around Dubuque and back but it is about 225 miles round trip so people would have to be cool with that...:thumbs up:
 
Re: Quad Cities owners

225 miles... may have to look into an aftermarket seat! Met Nathan at Duckies... nice guy and nice bike, even if he does occasionally misplace his keys! ;)

I'll be watching for ride dates!

At least it was in his pocket... I usually leave it in the ignition...:bang head:

Yeah it's 225 miles... Cross over into IL up to Savana across into IA then up through Belview(sp?) and our destination is lunch in Balltown and then back...:clapping: :thumbs up:

I may make it over there some day... Well if I get my bike back to one piece again...
 
Re: Quad Cities owners

Ok folks...

I am looking at going on this ride Sunday the 16th to Balltown. It will be me a friend and some other cruiser riders that happen to also be customers of mine...

It's a heck of a distance! (225-250miles) I just saw Alton Brown from Feasting on Asphalt (Food Network show) doing his ride up the river and stopping at the VERY resturaunt that I want to go to! Looks like a nice destination so lets all go...

Let me know if you can go and we will setup a meeting point!:punk:

Oh and we are going to be at Ducky's Lagoon in Andalusia for bike night Thursday the 13th around 6:00 or so...:thumbs up:

Cheers,
Chris
 
Re: Quad Cities owners

Ok since none of you pussies :whistlin::biglaugh:could come out and play on Sunday I will throw out a ride up to Anamosa next Saturday the 22nd starting in the morning. Ride up to J&P maybe go to the museum (pretty good) and grab lunch and ride back. Right now it's looking like 5 of us... So who's in?:ummm:

Come on... I can't be the only Max again.:bang head:

Cheers,
Chris

By the way... The ride to Ball Town was flipping fantastic! I mean the roads up there are awesome! Your loss... lol

I am in.
Thanks again for continuing to rub in about the ride to Balltown...:th_flipthebird: You know I would have gone if family would have allowed. Make sure to contact all you can and I will do the same.

Later.
 
Re: Quad Cities owners

Wish I could go but I've been helping my dad in the fields. Time to start tearing my bike down for paint and an 01 gsxr1000 front end anyway.:punk:

270 miles and my ass was screamin "get me the f&%k off this thing... :stickyman:

At about 185 miles I slipped the Air Hawk on to help out a bit. The seat is amazingly more comfy but it IS still a Vmax and a dropped one at that... Definetley going to raise the rear at least a half inch if not a full inch...:whistlin:

Keep taking off my sidestand or scratching my pegs...:bang head:

I'd love to meet you guys down with a few central Iowa riders, we'll see what's shakin'. I'm not sure if I can make it with the Friday night ride to I town though.
 
Re: Quad Cities owners

Bump... Looks like there will be 8-9 of us so far...:thumbs up: Not all Vmax's but still... There may be a couple of 1200 sportsters to humiliate...:whistlin:
 
Re: Quad Cities owners

Here I go again with the excuses: I gotta work Saturday! Several days ago I even planned my weekend golfing for Saturday afternoon so Sunday would be free, thinking Sunday was the riding day! Have fun!

P.S. Me and a buddy (Jim w/ the 'Busa and M109--some of you have met him) may do the poker run or just a jaunt up to Savannah on Sunday... anybody up for that?
