I'm right next door (mass), we are having a mild winter (very little snow) but a cold one (usually under 40 and as low as 20). I've only been able to sneek out a couple of times to put 242 miles on my bike. At this rate it isn't gettting broken in till March!
I didn't realize there were a couple of folks on this board that close to me. Is there ever a bikeland ride near us that takes place? I would love to ride/meet some of the people on this board.

In South of Boston, Plymouth ma. Just before you cross over either bridges (Bourne or Sagamore). It would be nice to get several board members together for a ride. I usually head north to New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine for my day trips. I will reachout via email with a little luck we can do some riding this year.

Cool your only 40 45 min away! I met a guy at the Bourne bridge this summer to buy a helmet plus my lady and I usually make it out to the Cape in the summer. What year is your bike mine is a 09 black and orange. I actually flew down to Orlando and loaded it up on the auto train that went to DC and from there I drove it home! I picked her up with 2800 miles and I now have 3400 on the odometer. Went from an 05 CBR1000 to the ZX and i love that I can ride all day and be comfortable. Hope to meet up when the weather gets better.

I bought myself a 2012 zx14r for christmas and I still have my red 2000 zx12r which I love. I also picked up a 2010 Honda NT700v for my wife at the same time. We both ride. Does your lady ride as well? It would be great if we can get together and shoot down to the tip of the Cape in the spring before the traffic sucks, lol

Joseph702, You must be whey up in Maine. My family vacations yearly in Old Orchord Beach Maine. We like to camp there and have camped @several sites very near the beach since early 90's. When I get a ride going I will post here for some members to join in. This is sounding better and better.

" Love hitting the kangamangis highway "
Funny you should say that. I ride up to Laconia every year, visit wiers beach in the morning ride the kangamangis highway to North Conway @noon. Do some local roads from there before heading back home. Usually around 400 miles or so that day. It's a great road, that whole area is great to ride.
