Bennington Triumph Bash

bonnevillebilly getting out of a 500+ dollar ticket by saying: But officer I thought you only wanted him not me. I stopped really I did.

ArsniTim dumpig his bike. Well not really dumping just falling over on Mt. Equinox.

Matt sitting in the pouring rain for a speeding ticket cause he could barely see the road let alone the 35 MPH sign.

And on and on.......

We had a minor incident on the Adirondacks ride too -- T-intersection that came up unexpectedly just after a hill, and it had started raining, so a number of people nearly went down as they hit the brakes and one actually did. Thankfully he was not injured and damage to his bike was minor.

Fortunately, though, we did avoid any constabulary entanglements (if anyone was wondering why I kept the pace on the slow side, now you know -- the cops were out in ridiculous numbers this weekend).

My mom and sis drove back up from Cape Cod this weekend, and my uncle who was driving TO cape cod from VT got a warning (would have been a ticket but its his birthday), so he warned them. She said they saw a TON of cops out all tucked away...

I grabbed Hedge by the arm, and kept him from making a poor choice in life.

I said " let someone else teach that kid a lesson".
I told you I didn't come up here to rumble!

You can't control the weather in New England,
but everything else was spot on!

The gap ride was incredible. Thanks to Tito for teaching us how fast you really can ride in a pooring down Thunderstorm with hail and severe wind gusts on the top of Woodford Mt. The lightning helped to keep our speed up. That was actually one of the slowest parts of the ride.

We did the Ton on numerous occasions, only saw a couple of cops who were always going in the wrong direction to give us any trouble and in generally had an incredible ride.

Tito looks so pretty in the glitter.

Bonnielass thinks Tito looks pretty, period.

UncleCharlie: "This kid has obviously not had his first proper beating, but lucky for him it will not be tonight!"

I'm still almost positive that Brett & Mike went back to administer that kid's first proper beating!

Hedge,
unless that kid was hiding at the bottom of a pint at Carmody's then he made it home safe and sound that night. I can't speak for Brett, but I'm a lover, not a fighter now. I've done my fighting, never really agreed with me.

Famous Quote from Jack after the 2nd song of the 2nd band, "YOU SUCK!" at which woman in the crowd yells, "That's not very nice", at which Jack replies, "AT LEAST IT'S TRUE!"

Mike, I'm a lover also, fighting has not amounted to anything for me so far in my life. I will throw down if pushed into a corner though. That kid had no idea that when he ran into hedge he was about two inches from me. So if he did throw do at that time he was fucked.

Uncle Charlie said that what we didn't see was a pack of Jackles in the background waiting to mix it up as well. He also said that one of them was almost as big as Jimmy!

The big guy was as big as jimmy, but I bet he can't hold the hoof of a draft house and shoe it. besides when the punk ran into you the pack moved away from us left him alone. They must have seen that Mike was an "army ranger" Hedge was packing, Uncle charlie ate viet cong for desert or they wanted him to get his ass kicked

Maybe your right and he was just a complete asshole and the rest of his group was serving him up!

I wonder if the kid that ran into you was the same guy we almost scuffled it out with on Friday Night. After we drank up at the Rattlesnake, Russ, Dave and I were getting on our bikes in front of the apartment. There was this group of kids eyeing us. I dont think they started anything cause we were eyeing them back and actually lookin for trouble. I wish we were there when you got shoved Hedge...

Anywhooo..
