    fjrchik goes down in Antler, OK

    The bike has damage all the way around it with the exception of the headlight and the seat. My GPS stand was sent askew but not damaged. So the cockpit looks pretty good. Very damaged saddle bag that won't close now. Other side is messed up too and sitting on the pipe now because the...

    fjrchik goes down in Antler, OK

    Here's some pics to explain it all better. I have to say looking at these pics now for the first time on the computer practically has me in tears because some of them are really misleading. The first few shots of I took of the scene from where I can off the road and onto the dirt completely look...

    fjrchik goes down in Antler, OK

    Yes I'm at work. I push a mouse, or rather a pen around on a tablet and with having to move twice in the next 2 months, I need money. Walking hurts but sitting here, and keeping fairly still, is doable. Yeah there won't be a 2010 FJR in my future, I hate silver. Already had a silver one...

    fjrchik goes down in Antler, OK

    Yes, SWFOG was taken off the table for me because of having to move out and get an apartment, something that was not planned on until next summer. That decision was forced on me and I don't have enough money to move and do the trip. I feel fine when I sit still, here at the computer at work. As...

    SWFOG 2009 Host Motel

    Hey no one told me you were going!! I'm so sad now! Trust me, no one is more disappointed than me that I won't be there. I have learned many lessons in the past 2 weeks at quite a large cost, unfortunately. It's a sad deal when your relatives f**k you over. :angry2: I'll just live...

    SWFOG 2009 Host Motel

    I'm not sure if this is totally possible, but if someone would like to take my room off my hands, I'd really appreciate it. I am no longer able to make this event. I have a guest room with 2 beds at the Courtyard, booked under the cheaper, guaranteed rate of $125/night. It is set up for Thursday...

    SWFOG 2009 Host Motel

    My sentiments exactly. Last rally of the year, you'd think many more would try to make it. I've been poking and prodding where I can and maybe have rustled up one more LA attendee but seems the recession is doin most in. Hey I'm broke too people and I'm still going!! :lol:

    SWFOG 2009 Host Motel

    Anyone else gonna join us in Page?? Hope so! B) By far, one of the most scenic areas in the country. It's been on my list for a long time to see. Should be a great place for a rally!

    Whats up with cagers from Texas?

    Yep you nailed it. It is scary here. Give me LA any day. Don't even get me started on how poorly they take care of their cars here, throw their trash out the window or into the bed of the truck (which of course, goes flying right out) and think nothing of letting their car doors hit another car...

    Whats up with cagers from Texas?

    I have found over my 8+ years here in this ummm...state, is that the attitude here is "if you don't like what i'm doing, go the hell around." No one moves over for anyone, especially in the metros where there are multiple lanes to choose from. They don't care about what is polite and they don't...

    Raton/Taos area weekend getaway

    I loved riding through the Raton area on the way home from NAFO last year, and I saw the Taos area on the way up. So yeah, I will definitely be back to check it all out more thoroughly. I saw Folsom on the map and it made me think of the Johnny Cash song. Next time it looks like I can do this...

    Raton/Taos area weekend getaway

    Unfortunately, this idea is over with before it started. As soon as I got offline with you last night, things started popping up to put a kink in my plan. But the killer problem was a dr appt on Monday that I completely forgot about. Best to save my money for SWFOG I guess. Not as much fun though.

    Raton/Taos area weekend getaway
