Hey Tony and Robin,
I am not sure about the weather...but Today, tomorrow and Sunday is Wildwood bike week (how 3 days makes a week I will never know)...Anyway, I have a group going down Sunday morning, Tony you are welcomed to join us if you are interested...
Robin, Dragonridernj is also planning on heading down and he is located in Jackson...I do not think that is too far from you...maybe I am wrong...but this does seem like a good time for a few of us Jersey Riders to meet up for lunch and tire kickin...
email me if you are interested...
Hope to see you both Sunday.
Dave

Robin My email is dragonridernj, but my handle is andym (we spoke...I work at NJT) . If the weatehr clears for Sunday, I hope to ride from Jackson down to Wildwood..Im off of 195 and can cross the state in a heatbeat on 195 so could meet you at the turnpike or GSP, but prefer to ride 539 down thru the pinelands.
If u want to call, my cell is 732 977 8215

That is the WAWA in Rio Grande...that is Further South....
If you guys are coming down the GSP you would exit on Exit 6 and take 147 in to North WW....Once in town the WW will be about 10 blocks on your left had side...

Once again VAlk Owners have shown what they are made of . I arrived in Wildwood this morning and when it came time to pull out..my I/S was dead. Dave (Rig Rig) and C??????? (CA Exhaust Coatings) --(Damn Im sorry I could not get my feeble mind to remember your name) stayed with me and diagnosed the problem .......Dave event swapped batteries with me twice to get me back on the road and home safely.................... What can I say VAlk Owners are the best.......Thanks Again Guys.. I hope I actually get to ride with you instead of having you push my bike...
In any event IM happy it was only a bad battery ........................

I arrived at wawa at 10:45 to 11:15 no Valks  But I see that there were mechanical issues. I saw one Valk with a neon purple full helmet, a black/green tourer on a trailer and passed a black interstate heading out of town. Oh and a red/white trike? Anyone here? Andy, glad you made it home. My battery is 5 yrs old, I think I'll swap it out.

Andy, Glad you got home ok...Get that battery swapped out...  Cos, Glad you were there to help also...great meeting the both of you...and need less to say, my Harley buddies gave me a few shots about a Valk being down...I took it like a trooper...my motto with my Harley buddies is "You meet a lot of nice people of Honda's, I AM NOT ONE OF THEM....good natured jabs....anyway, they were surprised that i stayed back to help Andy who I only know from this site...I explained to my buddies...it is a family thing...you guys would not understand...  on the way home, saw about a dozen (not kidding) Harleys broke down on the side of the road...We passed them and I just smiled...  Who knows how many HD broke down on the way home... Tony and Steelers, sorry I missed you guys, we got to the WAWA in NWW at about 11:20ish, got hung at a cage accident (car and tree straight road).... Guys, Next Sunday, Ride to Remember out of Washington Township...check the site...I will be doing that ridie with my crew...if you guys are interested let me know...I promise I will find another meeting location....not another wawa...haha ha Dave

http://www.ride-to-remember.org/index.htm Cos, yeah that was me, didn't see you guys at the Shell. I have "DragonPacks" ...nice sound. I think the next time we all need to swap cell #s incase another one of us needs help at an event. That way just like on animal kingdom the waterbuffolo's surround the wounded to keep the hyeaneas at bay.  Big Rigg, I'll try to make that ride to remember run. I'll just plan on showing up at the Wash twp HS lot before 10:00. Tony
