SLOWDOGs: Slower-Larger-Older & Wiser Dualsporters of N.Georgia

It's a blast to go from state to state, hit the twisties, jump on fireroads, cross some streams and play in the mud ...... But sometimes you don't want to run down single track with the young guns on tricked out thumpers .... A good bunch they are .. .. graciously willing to wait on the slowest of slow and to help all in need .......

So take your pick .... Maybe you ride Slower, the bike is Larger, your bones are a bit Older or your just a bit Wiser... And maybe this ride you are 'all the above' and maybe the next ride you're 'none' ... It isn't that big a deal...... With all good intensions ... If your looking to share a ride ... Post up .... Let's see how this goes ...

I thought this was the SlawDog thread and we were meeting for dinner somewhere

50 this summer and still stupid, KTM 530XCRW as a play bike.

It has begun ... ...

"Slower-Larger-Older & Wiser Dualsporters of N.Georgia"... that would spell "SLOW DONG" wouldn't it?

What are you talking about? 50 is YOUNG! SR

OH geeezz ... slow-dong ... I did put a few seconds of thought into to this but didnt see that ,,, Totally F'ked now ....

Where's that flippin edit button ....

SR ... changing post #1 ,,, young guns ,,, is now fast guns ... Trying to avoid the obvious insults ... ... I've heard you are fast .... ! ... but 50 ? you are damn fast ...

I'm older (and probably slower than you, hell I'm slower than most these days) and much much slower than I was. But these guys have let me tag along wid em and I've yet to feel dissed by any of them ......well except by that Honcho f**ker who was whining one time about going riding with 'the elderly crowd' or something like that. :ddog
Ride your own ride man. Its not so much how or what ya ride (with exceptions of course , surely you don't ride a Goldwing with a bra on it.... ) but that you DO ride.
I will also say there's alot to be learned from some of these whipper-snappers. Spending a little bit of time with these guys helped me to improve my understanding and communication with my son. Now if you have daughters......well that's a whole different story all together.

Daughters? Bring 'em. :jose

Fido, as long as I'm along on the ride you'll never be the slowest, or oldest. A close 2nd perhaps......

I'll admit that there are times when I feel like I'm holding the group back and of course the GS is no bike for single track rocky trails either.

So, OP, anytime you want to organize a geriatrics ride, I'll try to make it.

Honcho's just happy to ride with us old geezers because he knows one of us usually picks up his lunch tab.

i was think'n about joining this group till i saw the wiser part and knew i was disquified

Ha ha!!! Well, I meet the criteria except the "old" part. Does it count if you feel old?

FINALLY!!! A thread more my speed! I hate always being the slowest and I will probably still be last here.

I may be slow, but I always get there........

And I always enjoy my rides.

I think that new high tech, super duper, high performance exhaust mod of yours may put you up at the front of the pack

I'm gonna type this slow..... cause I know you can't read fast....

I love riding with you guys....












I finally feel like I ride REALLY, REALLY fast....



















We get great parking...





















And the discounts you guys get on meals is incredible!


Honcho F***er OUT!

.... I had to go get my reading glasses ,, but it was worth the trip ...

Well, i'm going on 48 years young,i feel pert as a rutting buck!,my GS will go anywhere and go as fast as them thumpers down a single track trail!
aawww,who the hell am i fooling,i have to use reading glasses to read,my fucking joints hurt,i'm on ADV instead of riding and when i'am riding i'm thinking of the route i'm taking going thru mud on dirtroads,instead of balls to the walls wide open,riding a big pig cause its more comfortable..
What the HELL,i'm getting old!!!
I wonder if Geritol will make me feel young again...







Its time to start riding the WR more often,that bike makes me feel young again,FUCK THE GERITOL.....





















and i'm not slow,i think....

See Post #1 , Line #1 ...

I can still do 80 ,,, just not down a washed out muddy road ... and my weak spot is I can't resist passing granny on a double yellow ... I ain't always slow ; I ain't always wise ... But my girls see to it that my hair is always a little more grey ...

I wish I had a damn thumper!

Good to see yaMark ......

You are definitely not slow. I seem to recall you jumping a 450lb Dakar just like it was that WR one day.
