Come on you puss... I'm signed up... :P

Aaaaaand... Cain wins.

With initials that pretty much spell dweeb (DWB), how could I not go to a rally titled NERDS? A ride to the far NE of the country is on my bucket list, and would allow me to do some revisiting of a place I spent a few years growing up in during my youth (New Canaan, Connecticut) on the way up...

Nice job... like having a stealth aux fuel cell.

I'm late posting to the thread, but left Knoxville around 8ish... went about 1/2 a block, decided to put on my Frog Toggs, and turned around. Glad I did it, because they kept me warm and dry for the ride west up to about Nashville... Then it got clear for the rest of the ride to Little Rock...

My plans are for spending the night in Roswell on Wednesday, then hitting Wayah Rd, Cherohala, and maybe the Dragon on the way to the Marriot...

Seems like there should be some way to replace the black plastic cover pieces below and to the rear of each side of the tank with a similar shaped item that would hinge out from the bottom of the tank to support your legs... could be pneumatically driven, and controlled by some electronics tied...

To tell you the truth Mike, I'm not sure. Planning for this trip hasn't been on my front burner... work has me swamped lately. I have relatives in Destrehan that I may overnight wth on the way out, I've ridden the Natchez Trace before, so I'm not sure that has any allure, but I may head to...

My worst ride ever on a bike was coming down off Ophir Pass on my way to WFO in Reno. Twisted story as to how I got there, but the FJR and downhill shale shelf roads for people who normally are on the balls of their feet on flat ground don't make for a very good match. I've left at least one...

You'll be sorely missed Don... fire up the '91 and start tomorrow... you'll probably be there just in time!

I'll see you there Mike...

I've got 3 girls, 17, 14, and 11. I think about them a good bit on my longer trips. I find myself falling back on my faith when considering my ongoing riding. If the Good Lord says it's my time, then it'll happen on the bike or not. I've been through enough situations on the bike where it...

You'll have at least one bike from Texas... reservation made, fees paid, just need to point the '05 in the right direction and let her go.

Loved the trip, getting there, being there, and getting home. I was 30 feet behind the Skootmeister when he went dirt surfing coming off Independance Pass... seeing him sit up after the flip was a great relief. Figuring out we could wedge Skooter's windshield in between his rider/passenger...

I changed out the Iridiums I installed about 35K miles ago yesterday... they looked cleaner than yours, and though the bike was running fine before, and runs fine as of this morning, I guess it's as much a peace of mind thing... I could dig them out of the trash when I get home and take a...

I'm not the Battery Dude, but they are Ni-H2 chemistry. Each one weighs about 370 lbs. They've been up on P6 since it flew in November 2000. Things have been cycled in the tens of thousands by now... in fact they're past the original date for when they were supposed to be replaced... STS 132...

I've got a more than normal interest in this flight... a large percentage of the Flight Support Equipment on the ICC-VLD carrier was stuff I oversaw as project manager (for the 6 P6 Batteries, and the EOTP), and one of the Shuttle Crew (Bowen) is a parishoner at my church. Plus, he's doing one...

My dad and mom are still with us (74 and 71), and I just saw them today. Not a day goes by that I don't thank the good lord for the blessing he gave me in making them my parents. My actions as a father of 3 girls are my attempt to imitate my dad... and some of the greatest moments in my life...

I totally apologize that my post upset you. Truly. You asked if anyone else was interested in one of these. My post was meant to convey that I would not be interested in buying one, even though I think you have a wonderful design. I didn't want to simply post "I wouldn't buy it" without a...

I mean no disrespect whatsoever to your cell design, and am fascinated by what you're doing, but I still have times when I wake up screaming in the dark over a previous clusterf*cked fuel cell group buy from this forum a few years ago. Once bitten, twice shy... my wallet still bears the scars...
