    FJR ES on Gravel Roads, Suspension Setting?

    I routinely run well-maintained gravel (meaning a packed track, not freshly graded) at 50mph. Freshly-graded is a different story, and introduces more pucker factor. The touring setting is a good idea, but like Sullivan said, don't overthink it. At 20mph, there's not a lot of handling to gain...

    The smell of burning rubber

    And this just popped up in my FB feed. Note that like many interweb headlines, this is a bit misleading. I'm guessing the guy got the 8 months for the laser jammer, not the finger.

    CFO 2018? It's up to you.

    Thanks Mike, but the burden is only as big as the organizer wants it to be. You can approach it as a simple weekend ride with buddies (which really is the heart of the matter), or as a full-on EVENT! with swag, banquets, special guests, bands, strippers, burn-out contests, fireworks, etc. And...

    CFO 2018? It's up to you.

    In addition to my commitments to attend CFR and EOM, two rallies I've yet to hit, maybe SFO, and other summer obligations, I'm stepping away from organizing CFO for this year. But that doesn't mean it doesn't have to happen. I wasn't granted magical powers to put on a rally...just goofy enough...

    Great report, 'pants! Glad you had the opportunity to experience the other side of the climate offered in the northern latitudes.

    CFR 2018 - WooHoo! Registration is going LIVE November 1st!

    Really wanted to tack part of that onto this trip, but I don't think it's going to work out. Instead, I'll likely blast through the BH a few days before it starts. Bummed, because the first one was great fun!

    2018 Ride Planning - Who, Where, When and What

    Hud, depending on how much of a purist you are, I'm still willing to pad your count with the hack shown below. And without actually facing felony charges for defacing property. Could maybe be fit in on the way to MO? I'm just here to serve...

    "I want you to enjoy your bike."

    With each story you tell of her, I know her a bit better. And in that way, she'll be out there riding with all of us. As barb said above, she's with you, too.

    SFO 2017 Home Safe

    Home at 8:40 last night. MAJOR kudos to Turk and Jana for a first-class rally. Food, entertainment (including Turk full of Honey Jack), and a big-*** "far" on Saturday night. Fantastic time!
