    2-Up On a FJR1300 to a party, B&B, and a water crossing!

    Thanks for the report and pics. I have a son and grandson in Pittsburgh, I recognized some of the locations. The last time I drove up there I saw a road sign for a tattoo parlor with the tag line... "Tattoos while you wait." No ****... I hope so. :blink:

    Toe gets another credit

    Glad you didn't add another crash club sticker... or worse. Was BB on her bike behind you? It would reinforce the rule for her if she was.

    Rain gear recommendations

    I would suggest that the rain pants have the elastic strap to go under the boot. Otherwise, they may ride up the leg far enough to expose the top of the boot to rain, letting in the wet stuff.

    My son the Lt.

    Totally missed this Wfooshee... I know you're proud of his accomplishments. Good looking family too.

    Motorcycle Accident Analysis (Conjecture)

    I dunno KD... I actually feel safer commuting on the slab. The traffic is going one direction, I don't have to worry about cross-traffic and left-turners. I ride the same as you on the SS... faster in lighter traffic, match speed and try to maintain a buffer in heavier traffic. YMMV.

    Be careful following trucks

    I guess accelerating a bit and driving over the obstacle isn't an option when it's a friggin' house. <_< Actually, as long as you didn't get rear-ended, this wouldn't be that bad since it's really visible.

    Eagan & a 1098S vs. Cannonball

    Damnit... I was on pins and needles for this run. I say "**** it", go solo Gary.

    Lost a great buddy

    Oh man I know your pain... I had to put down our Terrier of 16 years this past January. I guess I'll always miss the little guy. So many pets don't get the opportunity to grow up in a loving home that you provided for Toggi.

    With great regret I am hanging up my boots

    Well Graham, I've also had many close calls, and have considered hanging up my lid as well. You have my respect in making this decision, and voicing it to this forum. It's odd, when you're younger and have your whole life in front of you, the risk isn't even a concern. As we get older / wiser...

    People suck, but you already knew that.

    It's Mountain Brook for Chrisakes Fencer... full 'o ********, whatd'ya expect? Good on ya' though. JWilly... you talkin' about the puppy turned to large mongrel that chewed up a buncha your **** that you saved from your trip back from Oklahoma?

    Man soars above Alps with jet-powered wing

    What a freakin' rush that must be. I'm jealous of those that come after us... what marvels they'll be able to experience. I wonder if there will be enough loose nuts like us to try **** like that... I guess/hope so.

    The end is near for the 2-smokes

    I thought they would've done it sooner, since it was 2002 when they went from the 500cc 2's to the 1000cc 4's.

    Florida's New Law to Combat Speeding

    Cool... I can haul *** through Pony's jurisdiction as long as I'm not in traffic. :rolleyes: I hear what you're saying though, risking just your own life is one thing, risking others lives is much worse.

    Spies confirmed for USGP events

    I think he should test the MotoGP waters. But if he goes totally MotoGP next year, it would be a good thing for Spies, but a bad thing for AMA. No one else has a chance to beet Mladin... Disalvo isn't making the run at it I thought he would. If Mladin does retire, then it'll be competitive...

    Need an entertaining route from Deal's Gap to Birmingham

    Have you done this ride yet DD? The wife and I (in the cage :glare: ) went to visit with my daughter, SIL and new grandson in North Carolina this past weekend. Georgia DOT is working on I-20 between Villa Rica and the Alabama state line. You do NOT want to go through there until they're...

    A couple of pictures and a link in memory of Jordan

    Axe... that had to be heart-wrenching to post. Thank you. Jordan deserved the honor he received when laid to rest. I'll never forget what he did for us. God bless.

    Best prank on a race bike

    That's one of those so over-the-top pranks that he just has to laugh... I'm not sure how well I would've taken it. :ph34r:

    Questions for Sedona??

    If you get a chance and have the coin, go on a sunrise hot air balloon ride. We used Red Rock Balloons. (no affiliation)

    Best and Worst Avatars on the Forum?

    Like eeksnake, I just stare at Pierre's avatar and forget about the post. And if we're talking creepy? I can't believe no one has mentioned jigmoore's. edit: I guess I don't have room to talk about creepy avatars.
