    Farkling begins

    I was surprised; they actually had the three models I was looking at. I ended up going with the Nolan N102; and picked up some mesh pants to go with the jacket.

    Farkling begins

    Well, now I can't remember which post it was. I think I found it with a search. Took my roommate to the same dealer I bought the FJR from, Cycle Nation in Braselton. He rode out of there on a new GSX-R600. He threatens to walk away from me as soon as the breakin period is over... we shall see...

    I blew a chance to educate a young rider.

    I've always said that the government is spinning it's wheels when it tries to save people from themselves. Smoking, drug use, not wearing a seatbelt- all of them are choices people make that could shorten their lifespan; but despite decades of education, they will still make that choice...

    Mistaken for BMW?

    Went to a Nam Knights rally recently; was one of two non-Harley bikes there (other guy was on a Busa) and the first thing I was asked when I rolled up to the gate was "Is that a BMW?" Look of disbelief when I told him it wasn't. Really didn't get any other comments about it other than when I...

    Starcom Digital arrives

    First off, many thanks to BikeEffects for the outstanding service on this purchase. Answered my questions, included helpful tips in the package, corrected a mistake I made in a cable choice. Very good experience in dealing with them. Installation went easily, although fishing some of the larger...

    OK, where's Gixxer Corner?

    I've had a couple of people tell me while taking pictures on the Suches Loop "You need to go to Gixxer Corner!!!" (yes, with the exclamation points) Even though I've been riding the Loop off and on for ten years, I've never really known the motorcycle landmark names... other than Stonepile Gap...

    Aaaaaand Suches July 6, 2008

    So, my roommate (who's also a hobbyist photographer making the occasional wedding buck) decided he wanted to tag along on a Suches photography trip. He'd sold his '03 copper SV-1000 about a month before, so we took the car. Although, after driving the loop, I think he's decided to get another...

    Suches July 4 pics

    Not as many people up there on Friday; no doubt doing what I did after the ride- creating a monumental hangover. This couple was really enthusiastic about being photographed: HOLY CRAP!! HE'S BEING ATTACKED BY A CAT!! Watch your lines... ...'Cause others aren't: The original naked...

    Glad you enjoyed them! I got rained on with no pics last weekend, but I plan on being out there this weekend.

    N GA Thursday July 3 Day Ride

    Wish I could, but I'll be spending the day interviewing detention officer applicants. :grrr: "So, you feel your extensive background in the food service industry (McDonalds) has prepared you for a career in law enforcement? Can you tell us your tooth-to-tattoo ratio?" Have fun.

    N GA Riding Group Camping Trip, Ironhorse MC CG, Fri-Sun, July 11-13

    Well, I had thought I was going; but I should have checked with my roommate first- we're booked for wedding photography on the 12th.

    Suches again 6/22/08

    ...and no pics this week, as I got a late start and got poured on while I was there, chasing off almost all the bikes. :angry2:

    sucheslooppix.com purchased and redirected... look strange but fits the banner and should be easy to remember.

    Ahead of ya... album's here: https://katsden.iroshai.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=22 Of course, that's a little long for a banner. I need to get a good URL to redirect to that for a banner. One of those vinyl ones that I can roll up and put in the saddlebags. I did pass out some business...

    Suches again 6/22/08

    Wanted to get some more pictures on Sunday, but I've had a head cold (flu, sinus infection, whatever it is) all week and was clogged up enough that I didn't feel safe riding, so I took the mustang instead. Talked to this guy for a while; I'd seen him last week as well. I asked him how he liked...

    All of the pictures are now in this (rather ugly at the moment) album... all 217 of them. I had a discount code for Forum members, but the gallery software apparently can't figure out what to do with a 100% discount. So, if there's a pic there you want full-size and without the watermark, let me...

    Did You LOSE Something When Your Wheels Came LOOSE?

    WRECKless driving vs. RECKless driving... one gets you a discount on your insurance, the other, a trip to the pokey.

    It It Worth It To "Fight" a Ticket?

    Gunny on that... I've known a lot of state court and superior court judges who frown on traffic violations tieing up jury trial time... if the defendant is found guilty, they'll sentence the maximum. :blink: As others have said, your only chances in a trial are that the officer doesn't show...

    I took about 250 pics and had maybe 130 or so keepers... I had five people stop and ask if they could buy their picture, and, of course, had no cards or anything on me. I think I'll set up a web gallery for folks who want copies of them- free pics to forum members, of course! Had one guy stop...

    Suches area (60-180-129) June 15

    Finally got a weekend to myself and no commitments to ride with cruiser-owning co-owners, so I took the feej and the camera up to the Suches area. Ya'll were right about the tar snakes between Stonepile Gap and Woody's Gap... I haven't felt my rear end that squirmy since I got drunk and passed...
