This is great info on the PR2s. I mounted a set 1000 miles ago and haven't regretted it. As for traction in cooler temperatures: I know it's counterproductive in terms of getting high mileage, but if you look for a bit more traction when it's colder and don't want to change to a different...

This was my first EOM, and what a memorable experience I had. What a great location to have a motorcycle meet like the EOM. I enjoyed meeting a lot of the people here on the forum in person. Definitely a special kind of group that doesn't hold back when people need help. I would like to thank...

I also have trouble watching blip.TV videos. It has the same studdering of the video as with Cyclebabble's videos. Not sure what the problem is. I guess it's my PC. So I didn't get to see the video all the way through, but I am glad that nothing major happened. Pucker moments are never fun.

Just got off the phone with Annette and she told me that Doug (Wayne's captain) has gone to the bike and taken the items off that Wayne requested. He also took some pictures. No idea about the valve stem, but apparently the bike doesn't look too bad. Maybe they will be able to put it back...

After talking to them yesterday and asking about the bike, Annette told me that the bike is somewhere in Bluefield (not sure exactly where), but hesitated for anyone to go and pick it up yet. She said that she needed to talk to their insurance first to see what they need to do. Most likely the...

That's for sure! See you soon.

Heidi I was going to mention that the weather forecast looks pretty crappy for the weekend. It is already overcast, much cooler and very windy here today. Probably a good choice not to head out this way on the bike.

Quick update: The wifey and I went to see Wayne and Annette at Roanoke Memorial tonight to see how they were holding up and to offer our help. Under the circumstances, they are doing good. Annette was pretty upbeat despite their situation. They removed her chest tube today. We talked for a...

Jim That looks like a fine route you got planned there. Not sure if I can wait that long though. I may have to test ride it before winter gets here.

Scab, that story had me laughing so hard Sunday night that my ribcage hurt the next day. You definitely know how make a pretty sad story come out funny in the end. No pun intended!

Jason, if it is in Roanoke it can only be Carillion, or Lewis Gale and that's not far from where I live. Like 35 miles. So if they need anything let me know. Ingo

Thanks for the update on both of them. Good to hear that they still have their humor. Jason, do you know what hospital they took them to? I live in the area so if they need anything I can help. Ingo

Gosh I just heard the news about Wayne and Annette. I talked to them Monday morning at breakfast when they told me they are staying another day and were heading for Burkes Garden. I feel sick after hearing about their misfortune. My thoughts are with them and hope they have a good recovery. Ingo

Made it home safe and sound this afternoon. I left the hotel and took 60 east and then a side road (goat trail) in West Sulphur Springs. After getting chased by several vicious WV dogs and encountering multiple deer crossing my path I realized that I had missed my turn to yet another goat trail...

Thanks guys and gals for all the hard work you're putting in to make this EOM a memorable experience. :clapping: Here are my choices: Meat (Please choose 1) Chicken Breast (Marsala) Not so meaty for our veggie friends (please choose 1) Vegetable Lasagna Potato (Please choose 2) Garlic...

I got all registered and made my reservations at the Brier Inn. Looking forward to meeting everybody. I will be coming from 460 from VA to 219. I will be arriving Friday midday and stay until Monday morning. BTW, I registered, but haven't received an invoice yet.

Got my reservation confirmation in the mail. Looking forward to meeting you all in September.

Congrats on a great superbike. I've had a 929 RR back in 2000 and absolutely loved it. The new 1000, I bet, rides like a dream. Wouldn't mind having one of those myself.

Hi Heidi It's been a long time. Yeah, doing good here. I will plan on being at the EOM this year. Glad you guys made it the weekend after the MotoGP race. That way I can attend both events. Ingo

Well, I have been really keeping a low profile on the forum and actually never attended any of the EOMs, or other FJR gatherings (except a gathering in Waynesboro many moons ago) for that matter. I did, however, follow all the gatherings online and read how much fun you guys had. Since the EOM...
