Moving back to NYC from Floridas been hard on my bike. No ride buddies and you have to ride far to get a good route, anyone college riders out in Brooklyn?
Im in Sunset Park. I rarely ever see younger people ride, only older guys like late 20's and 30's. I rarely ever see Duc's. Anyone?

Ducatis are pretty nice bikes. My college was fully paid for by my parents but still I existed on macaroni & cheese while in school. I didn't have money for a phone in college, let alone a sweet motorcycle or even its insurance! That said, give us Geritol-based Duc riders a chance. We might be fun to hang with even though we're old & infirm and have to stop every 50 miles to pee ::)

IMO, I'd much rather ride with an older person for many reasons. To name just a few - an older ride has more time/experience out on the street, can possibly have some wisdom to share (about riding and life in general), can possiblly be safer, and 9 times out of 10 is faster

What's a testosterone ladened youngin gonna teach me, how to properly run hot and dump a bike into a corner? Me thinks not [cheeky]

alright alright guys!!! dont stretch the words!

Im just looking for a kid my age to actually hang out with, who doesnt have kids, family and work to think about.
Wouldnt u be freaked out if a 19 yearold kid wanted to hang out? I dont mind riding with any age group, the older guys always have stories and years of wisdom ahead of me.
Im mature when i want to be, but really im in college and i like to stay up for days partying and doing nonsense. And unless youre Tucker Maxx, i dont think most guys fall into that cat.

hell i woudlnt mind startiing a NYC only get together on a weekend to get everyone to meet each other.

Again, ill ride with anyone, but im looking for a real ride buddy that lives near by and we can go "hey its 2am, lets ride"
