So, after new fork seals and fresh juice in the front end, it was time to kiss and make up with her, so, mounted a new Penske 8983 on the rear tonight to replace the clapped out 9 year old stocker. Was late when I wrapped up, so didn't get a chance to shake it down.

So...haven't been riding much lately. Lots of time at work, stuff around the house, toying around in new Jeep, bicycling, running, etc etc etc. Just haven't been able to find/make the time to ride. During the Cycle World bike show, looked at a KLR650 and thought it would be a decent toy to...

Thanks for keeping me anonymous. I'm one of the guilty parties. It filled the scratches ok, but, looked like ***. For anyone considering one of these....don't. For 15 each for the color plus clear plus shipping for something that's going to look like ****, spend a few bucks more and ship...

Such a sad couple of days in motorsports. First with the passing of Dan Wheldon and now this. Sic was often criticized for his aggressive riding style on the track and was doing a great job of making better decisions on the track. He had such a promising career ahead of him...he will surely...

Hopper beat out Hill in race 1. Race 2, Hopper had electrical problems - had to pull of, turn the bike off and turn it back on. Fought back to finish in the points and held on to a 2 pt lead going into the last race. All he had to do was finish ahead of Hill. He got a decent start and...

Although Hopper didn't pull out the win in race 1, he finished 3rd and the closest person in the points, Tommy Hill, finished 4th. Points lead extended from 8 to 11. Final 2 races take place tomorrow.

Forgot to mention..assuming he comes out of the race this weekend unharmed, he has another wildcard MotoGP ride at Sepang, Malaysia on Sunday, Oct 23.
