The FarkleBar is interesting, but I'm more of a Techmount girl myself. I find the Ram Mount balls get dry rotted, deformed, and stop doing their job very well. Looks like Velcro on the old dash may be the only solution. Oh, and so sorry about the forced wallet drain Niehart

Yep, that's pretty much what I'm finding, which means I'll either have to make do with a few extraneous holes in my current dash, fab something up, or make due with a reservoir mount. Who would have thought that people would stop fabbing up custom parts with a tiny demand within a bike-specific...

Good point - Logically I knew that, but I spend enough time trying to figure out how to mount another big thing somewhere around all of my other stuff and I begin to forget those minor details It seems you guys tend to lean in favor of a right-side mount. My only justification for a left side...

Wow - this hasn't made my mounting options easier at all!! The Legal Speeding enclosure looks spiffy, but kinda big - I'll have to take a few measurements (Maybe it's time to upgrade to a bigger dash too...) Of course the $5 Tupperware looks just as functional, so it looks like finding a...

I contemplated posting this in "Never-ending, Pointless, Recurring Threads" but let's try it here first, just for fun My Adaptiv TPX met an untimely demise during the IBR - it's waterproof and has held up to some pretty wretched conditions, but the only significant rain I encountered this...

What a devastating loss. Some people just seem so much larger than life, like this couldn't/shouldn't be possible. * Damn. Thanks for posting that video, but that was a tough watch. We're all aware of the risks we face, but... Damn.

Sorry to do this to you, but I'm going to re-direct back to the original non-fuzzy-violet question... I've applied 3 times. I've been selected 3 times (As Iggy mentioned, riding in one improves your chances of being drawn for another) The 2nd time was totally different than the first (and...

Please stop in and say hi!! We'll be at the shop at least 8am-3pm on Sunday at 11417 Kernville Road in Kernville, next to the Pizza Barn and across from the Forest Service work station by the "T" stop at Sierra Way. (Shop name is The Cyclesmiths)

This is mike (Wendy's husband) reporting on her account. Wendy is in, scored, and currently showering. (I'm sure she can expound later on the joys of getting your hair unbraided after 11 days.) I can tell you that she had a FANTASTIC time, enjoyed many of the stops for their beauty or interest...

Matt is in the hotel getting his crap in a sock before scoring. His dad made a surprise visit.

Yer got dern right!!!

There is also the Enola Gay hanger in Wendover NV. It was a stop on the 10n10 and many other events.

WAHOOOO!!!!!!!..THAT'S MY WIFE....this is her account.......BUT THAT'S MY WIFEY!!!! Great job FJR riders, the krotch cookers are bringing it!

I have one....just been so long since I posted I can't remember what any of my login info is. Benevolent leader....help please.

Wendy's husband, Mike, checking in here: says she's having a great time and seeing good things....accept for four upside down cars on the highway.

Hey Turbo - My shop is The Cyclesmiths and it's in Kernville, the next town up. Alas, I'll still be making my way home from the IBR when you'll be up here, which is a real bummer because I've got a few Clamper buddies. You're always welcome to stop by any time you're around - our guest room is...

Thanks all! George said this event was designed to NOT mind f^*k the riders, which may have lulled everyone into a false sense of security I had a blast, and the weather was surprisingly pleasant until Andy Mackey & I rode into Death Valley together around 8pm. At one point Andy actually...

LMAO - After the 2009 IBR when they were putting together the video, both Dean and Lisa complimented me on how fresh I looked and how "perfect" my makeup was after Leg 2. In reality, there was no freshness and no makeup - it was 100% windburn and panic. But hey, as long as it looks good on...

It scares me to open emails or posts that are only titled with someone's name or a vague reference like this one - too many times in the last few years it's just been bad, sad news. I am hugely relieved that, for all your misadventures, you'll be on the mend. :friends:

Thanks everyone, and I want to add my big congrats to Tony as well! He not only toughed it out for an awesome finish, but he took off for home right after the banquet on Sunday night when the rest of us were getting ready for another nap. Amazing! We had a super FJR contingent across the...
