    2017 Iron Butt Rally

    I know of at least one ex FJR owner who will be there. And he blames it all on FJRForum for introducing him to LD riding. Therapy is an option. I will be in the US between mid June and late August.

    Beemerdons Travel Schedule for 2016

    Beemerdons Travel Schedule for 2016

    Tyler. I rode with Don both in Europe and the USA so if you can send me a copy of the photo I'll laminate it and take it along on some of my European rides, especially my IBA Ireland 32 County Challenge ride in in his memory on July 20. PM me for my email address.

    RIP Beemerdons

    My thoughts are with Seth and Donna. I first met Don in Spain on a tour organised by Teerex and when I visited the USA Don was always kind enough to offer me a place to stay and the use of one of his bikes. I will miss this kind, gentle giant but I will always have the memories. RIP Don. Dave

    Zonies: Anyone interested in riding to Austin USGP races?

    Hi Dan, it would have been good to see you again and catch up but you probably saw more of the racing than my son and I did down at turn 8

    Zonies: Anyone interested in riding to Austin USGP races?

    If I wanted a wet GP I could just go to Silverstone or Le Mans, luckily it looks as if the forecast is improving.

    Want Russels or Corbin seat for Gen II

    I have a solo Russel from my old 2009 still available. No one is interested here in the UK. That's not especially useful to you UNLESS you are going to the MotoGP in Austin, in which case I can pack a larger suitcase for the trip! If you are interested PM me and I can send you specs and pictures

    Things to do in Texas?

    This was all done at short notice. I only asked Phil if he wanted to celebrate his bithday in Texas on Saturday. We've had to revert to plan B. Phil can only get 4 days vacation so we are taking advantage of British Airways new direct flight to Austin. Arriving Thurs pm and heading straight to...

    Things to do in Texas?

    We're are still very much in the planning stage at the moment. Probably arriving at DFW on Sat 5th and possibly going to the NASCAR at TMS on the 6th as that is Philip's birthday. I saw Six Flags on the map and although he'll be turning 30 I'm not sure he's outgrown theme parks so possibly there...
