My attitude is that there is always a risk but in the end it is only money and there is insurance. I wouldn't lend a bike to anyone that I wasn't sure was up to the task. My friends whom I ride with frequently have ridden my bike but no one else. I trust them not to be foolish but I accept the...
Hi all,
It appears that I will be blasting out to Golden quite quickly, not much time to see the sites. after NAFO though I would like to do a little more interesting riding on the way back. As it may be a long time again before I ride the wild west I thought I might like to stay in the...
I assume "Failure to Maintain" meant going too far below the posted limit. I thought "YES" someone finally got pulled over for this.
Mike mentioned people passing on the right shoulder. Damn I hate that. Once, just once, I did witness some justice in this regard. I was in a huge traffic jam and...
I am quite amazed how consistent it is. My scores are:
1 - 0.308
2 - 0.315
3 - 0.306
4 - 0.185
5 - 0.318

My wife has told me I am one of the quicker guys she knows...now I...
Medic,

Every season when I start out I go to a Business Park on a Sunday and try to get back into riding mode in the large parking lots...
Hi folks,
This is actually a video of a bicycle coming down the mountain but it sure looks like it is going to be fun on my FJR. The video has everything...twisties, scenery, good music, and even deer running out in front of him!
Enjoy

I have an HJC which I find comfortable but I about want to drive over it with my truck every time I need to change the shield. It says it is their patented technology and I think they just had to come up with something so they didn't have to purchase someone else's technology.
Just because of...
I followed Yambone's instructions and got the foam from here:

Can't recall what I paid for it but definitely one of my better farkles.
I looked for Yambone's photos of the process but they are no longer online. I have a sheepskin...
Skoot I see there is still a lot of snow around at those elevations. One of the problems here in the Spring is that the roads are still dusted with salt and sand. Slippery! That not a problem in them thar hills?
