    Garage Door Opener

    I did the glove box door thing too. On the approach to my house, there's a stop sign, then about 40 yards down the street, a gutter crosses the road, forcing a slow-down. I power away from the stop, pop into N, release glove box door, coast through the dip, then hit 2nd gear. Two left turns...

    Riding Tips from a Class-A CHP Moto Officer

    Thanks. Now you tell me. Only 6 years too late. Only time it's been down. I did almost everything wrong, almost nothing right. September 11, 2005 . . . . . . .

    Lookout! NV, AZ, CA, OR, WA

    It'd be safe around here, and I could even park it right out front for a couple of weeks if it won't fit into the side yard. Somebody left a bigger one across the street a few days ago, and our neighbors two doors down have had the Cousin Eddie Special parked in front of their place for two...

    KrZy8 down n out?

    No, it's just a picture I snagged off the web. I'm too aerodynamically-challenged to be fast enough for an aero bike. More of a weight-weenie hill-climb kinda guy on a Fondriest Carbon Lex ('04, just like my FJR)....

    KrZy8 down n out?

    Thank you! Been too busy with other things, mostly bicycle 3 short hours a day when I'm not at work. Takes away from internet time. Getting ready to do my second annual Climb to Kaiser. Finished last year, but not strong. Looking to knock at least an hour off my time this year. The ultimate goal...

    KrZy8 down n out?

    You sure have a great attitude for a guy with a Gen II lemon. I'll stay tuned for the next chapter of the ongoing saga....

    Lookout! NV, AZ, CA, OR, WA

    As long as it's not one of those car trailers, the width has to be about the same as a full-size pickup. I can accommodate any length....

    Lookout! NV, AZ, CA, OR, WA

    I could probably swing that here in lovely Fresno, if the trailer wasn't too wide and could be separated from the truck.

    NAFO #3 - Rally in the Rockies!

    Ah man! This conflicts with the second annual attempt of my (currently only) big bicycle event which is on June 23rd next year. Y'all have a great time up there, I'll be thinking of the fun I missed while I crank my way up 13,500 feet of climbing on 65 miles of uphill road....

    Custom-made Steel Plate to move Topcase Backward?

    Hey all! Still on a leave of absence and all crazy about bicycling. Just using the FJR for commuting to work and Patriot Guard missions. Still convinced there's no better bike made for doing it all like my FJR does. Just spending a lot of time pedaling uphill. As it turns out, I'm pretty good at...

    Death Valley Wildflower ride, Assuming we get some rain.

    Hmmm, with a bit of schedule juggling, this sounds pretty do-able. January was out this year, looking to do some fishing. Sure wish I could have made contact with that Mickey character who showed up last year in January. I bet he knows where the fishing is. I'd sure like to take Eve to my...

    JB's Excellent (Near Death) Adventure

    Damn, Jessie! Just yesterday I thought to myself. "I better check in on the FJR Forum and see if anybody has died recently", as I've been off channel for a few months. And this! Thanks for the excellent opportunity to jump up on my soapbox yet again! I just (4 days ago) celebrated the first...

    Avila Beach for Lunch North meets South

    Sorry, but I have to flake at the last minute. Not enough hours in this weekend to get away and play all day. Y'all stay right out there among them twisties!

    Avila Beach for Lunch North meets South

    What time and where? I'd rather not go up your driveway if there's not a party at the end of it. Almost fell down last time on my way in, without doing any drinking. That dirt road is even dangerous to a select few cagers, as I recall.... Hi Dons and all! Doing pretty good here! Just been busy...

    Avila Beach for Lunch North meets South

    As it has turned out, I'm on vacation the next two weeks, so I/we can make it from the Northeast! (we in the Highlander/me on bike if solo) Got room? 1300 hrs. at Fat Cat's, weather should be nice!

    Happy Birthday

    Hey thanks bunches everybody! The day went pretty well, didn't really have to do anything I didn't want to do. That was the good... And now for the bad: I won't be able to make the WFO scene this weekend. A good friend of mine lost his wife in a traffic collision last Friday, and her burial (at...
