Been riding for around 3 years on a SV650 and I'd be interested in an early-morning/day trip to Skyline drive sometime in October too.

So... who is free to ride because of the government shutdown? :P Anyhow, I still haven't been to the RFK track and I'd like to check it out sometime. Anyone up for it this week/next week?

I wanted to go to Skyline Drive on Friday but apparently it's closed because of the shutdown. Does anyone know of any similarly scenic routes/destinations that are within 2-3 hours of DC?

Instead of going down to Virginia like I originally intended, I ended up going to the RFK track for my first time today and got kicked out by a police after a couple of sighting laps. Did I just get unlucky?

I'm also up for anything during the day on the weekend.

I tried this last year myself but kept putting off registering until it was too cold - can't let that happen again. Will you know by Wednesday of next week? I can let you know by the end of this week. Thanks!

Koruthaiolos posted:It's been mentioned, but one of my favorite routes out of the city is Canal Rd out of Georgetown then continue on River Rd to White's ferry. From there you can either stay in MD and ride around Little Seneca Lake/Sugarloaf Mtn, or take the Ferry across where you end up outside of Leesburg. Everything west of there is wonderful riding - HNasty can probably provide better specific roads over there. But it's probably harder to find bad roads than good. A good portion of River Rd to White's Ferry is gravel, right?

I'm still in for Cornerspin. My bike is probably not up for riding all the way down, nor is my schedule set... I have some friends on the way that I want to visit but I'm not sure if I'll be visiting them going to/from NC. I have a hitch on my car if someone needs to tow their bike, though.

Yep, it looks like I'll be driving down Thursday, spending the night with them, and driving the rest of the way on Friday. Is there an email chain to exchange phone numbers?

For what it's worth, revzilla's free ground shipping is essentially next day shipping since they're based out of philly. I've bought And returned (for fitment issues) a ton of stuff from them and their customer service has always been great

M42 posted:Yeah, the issue is that I've had my seat shaved down like half an inch so I can reach the ground at all. Corbins/sargents are stock height or higher I think, and none of the custom seat people I know are willing to work on those brands. On my 2nd gen SV the Corbin seat is about 1" shorter than stock and a ton more comfortable

I have a fuel tank that I need to de-rust, preferably by electrolysis since Evaporust didn't work that well. Problem is that I live in a poorly-vented apartment and I don't want to produce/trap hydrogen gas where I live. Does anyone have experience/a set up for this kind of thing?

Alright I will give Evaporust another try, this time to soak for a few extra days. I'll look into other other options if it still doesn't work out. Thanks!
