Hi all: Considering an overnight in the Berkshires Monday or Tuesday night. Would like some reccs on good hotels in that Western Mass area and also really good breakfast/brunch places, diners. Something like the Rochester Cafe in Roch., VT (Nice Rumble knows it and I'm often there with the...

Hey agrats - I've often ridden in Ringwood; ping me for any day rides.

Did you see my reply in the other post on a VT ride? Count me in. I know the Rochester Cafe intimately, actually. Jim / RLB / Boo Boo Rockefeller

Skip: Count me in on any VT rides! Actually, we go to our friend's place in Stockbridge all the time and often have breakfast at the Rochester Cafe which is just a few miles from them.

Hi Heidi: I think you did meet me (I met you!) Obviously, I didn't make a Rockafellerian impression on you! I was in the lead group on Saturday, but you were in sweep position, so we weren't really in touch much. Which all means we have to meet up on another ride sometime soon. By the way, I...

Hi All: Thanks to Iris and Jim for putting this ride together. Great roads and great folks. And thanks for Marty for letting me borrow his gmrs radio. I headed back after lunch at about 2-ish to try to get home before my son’s bedtime and did actually make it (yay!). However, I passed through...

Hi: Hooked up the Starcom to my new Cobra radio and I get a steady thumping sound when the radio goes into "power saver" mode. So, how do I disable "power saver" mode? Also have a Zumo 550 plugged in and I'm using Etymotic earphones. Help!

Ski: Sorry to read about the off. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone on this (my first FJR-related ride). How do you like your seat, btw? I'm thinking of ordering one, but the wait time is extremely long. I was kinda hoping to find one for this ride (I'll check the classifieds on here...

Shit - I couldn't have found this post before today?! Nuts. If this trip were a week later than it is, I'd be beggin' to join in. Even though I'm a complete stranger (not strange, just a stranger).

Hi herfjr: I'm booked for the Super 8 Thurs thru Sat (so riding all Friday and Saturday, maybe an early breakaway around 4-5pm). Regarding Thursday night, I'm a little confused but I'm in for whatever dinner is happnin', and if there's more than one dinner, I'm in for the more fun one! I'll...

Ordered the Cobra on Jeff rec and getting the Starcom. I need to be back on Sunday for Father's Day, so I'll take part Fri & Sat.

Okay, thanks. Is there a consensus on which GMRS is best/very good?

Thanks for the reply. Well, I'd like to get in as much riding as possible so I intend to do both days, therefore leave on Thursday early afternoon to arrive just before dinner. I'll confirm that by this weekend at the latest. If there's a big benefit to having communications like FRS radios...

I'm a new guy 'round these parts, but I'd love to attend this ride. I'm not one for big crowds like Americade, so this is more my thing. Still room for one more? I'd prolly be leaving from NYC (though I keep the bike in Mahwah, NJ and could also leave ffrom there). Cheers!

I'm somwhat new round here but I always support creative work like Opt8low's. Keyword-support.

I took this to refer only to the Ohlins: Spoke to GP today and I now understand that both Penskes are adjustable for ride height and that GP will set height for you according to your parameters (weight, riding style, etc.) Thank you.

Forgive me if this was actually answered, but I don't think it was: Which shock enables raising rear ride height? Since the Blackbird shim method does not work (and I'm coming off of one of those), that makes rear height only addressable by the shock itself, ja? I will definitely place an...

Garmin Zumo 550 -> XM. Still mounted to the Blackbird, but will transfer to the Feej soon.

Wanted: Givi V46 or E52 top case, perhaps in Cobalt Blue, perhaps with brake light. Wanted: mounting kit for above, perhaps less ugly than the Givi SR357!

Is it this one: https://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5982680 or this one? https://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5982681 I think both will work, but one's a half and the other's a full cover.
