    Poker Run In Mid Michigan

    You guys in the midwest cancel poker runs for rain? Last run I did was all in the rain - everything from little sprinkles to a full-on downpour. It is fun watching the folks who have bikes to play rather than ride try to handle their first time in the wet tho.

    Which Headlight Moduator?

    I go the comagination (I think I may have been the first on here to order one, but FJRocket got his delivered earlier :-) ) I use it all the time - only turn it off if I'm directly behind someone, and I'm really pleased with it. It is a little clunky looking, but the install was super-easy.

    Maryland

    I'm stuck in Southern DE, and it's sort of a toss-up also between South and NE. I'm not sure we have enough to make Mid-Atlantic.. I know there are at least 3 other FJR's near me, but I don't think any of them are on the board.

    Dropped It Today

    OCC fan? (Sorry, couldn't resist) I was out today for a dice run with my dad - about 80 miles, all in the rain and I'm n worse for the wear - I was a little nervous getting back on, but that wore off after about 5 seconds. I've got some ideas on the paint, depending on cost - from just...

    Dropped It Today

    It's not, and I'm not sure if it would have made a difference or not - I think I was coming in too hot - I stopped and examined the detritus today, and I don't think that the front wheel locked as much as I had the front turned and I think it kinda got into the stones and slid, not so much from...

    How To Buy (safely) From A Site

    eBay.. I've done that before.. when I had a buyer for something, I listed it on eBay with an obscure but still accurate description, set the buy it now price at the pre-agreed upon price and then sent the buyer the link to the auction. He did buy it now, we did the paying thing and the...

    Dropped It Today

    The "in front of the wife bit" is especially bad since she doesn't like the idea of a bike in the first place. I'm better today - not nearly as sore as I thought, but still hurting some. I am going to try the paint - and yea, I was wanting custom paint.. yea.. yea.. I did it on purpose, so I...

    Dropped It Today

    Rode to work today - beautiful day, about 50 miles each way, marred only slightly by a brief visit with a representative of the local constabulary in one of the small towns on the way. (said visit shortened by my presentation of my own credentials as a member of a significantly larger and more...

    Draggin Jeans Us Vs Au Vs Hood Jeans

    I have and wear Draggin' Jeans and have been down in them - you can check out my story on that over at Webbikeworld(in the "user comments" section of their review) I always wear them with armor underneath, and they are a little hot, but I'm willing to put up with it.

    He Came From Out Of Nowhere

    I ordered the bag reflectors before I even had the FJR home, and my helmet and leather jacket are both white. (no snickers please - you think riding with the cruiser crowd is bad when you're on the FJR, try pulling up in white leather) I've been wanting some sort of rear flasher - anyone have...

    Tirefly Lights

    I have them on my FJR, and notice them not at all... I'm not sure if that means they don't work very well or if I just don't look at my tires when I'm riding...

    Man Charged With Murder, Assault

    It seems that the cager cut the bikers off, then there was some sort of confrontation (everyone pulled over). When it ended, the cager followed the bikers and bumped them both off the road. Today's article has some more info.

    Virus Warning!!!

    Most of what I've seen is that the virus is nowhere nearly as bad as CNN reported it, but they sprayed it all over everywhere because they got infected. Any network admins to lived through Blaster and are still at risk for this virus should be fired. Immediately. To stupid to learn and...

    Man Charged With Murder, Assault

    I wondered about the helmet thing, but it is the News Urinal, so I figured someone thought it was important. Reading about the nature/extent of the injuries I don't think a helmet would have made a lick of difference. I think 2nd degree is appropriate - what's going to suck is that he'll plea...

    Heated Question?

    Yep, got my first burns in 95+ weather here a few weeks ago - right around the 2000 mile mark on my FJR, and wearing Draggin' Jeans (the kevlar-lined jeans). My wife failed to be smypathetic, something about 'you decided to ride'

    Man Charged With Murder, Assault

    I am ashamed to admit this happened in my home state, on roads that my dad and I were riding the weekend before last. At least they got the *******..
