    29 Dreams Motorcycle Resort Closing

    A few years ago I was riding in Alabama and I had the good fortune to stumble across 29 Dreams (https://www.29dreams.com). Had a great time there and have been on their mailing list ever since. Unfortunately today I got the newsletter which announces that they can't afford to stay in business...

    Unbelievable!

    Fortunately there are still lots of good folks in the world. I can't remember where it happened but I recall a story where a police officer was arresting two men in a remote area. The officer had a heart attack and the guys he was arresting called 911 and waited for the ambulance and police to...

    I'm at CFR... fjrob1300

    Actually the weather in Red Bay, Labrador is quite seasonable. In degrees F it is in the 50s now and going up into the 60s. Should be a lovely day to ride. https://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/canf0223

    Rob at CFR

    My God what a shame. You get all ready to go and then 500 yards down the road you have to sit and wait...and wait...and wait. What ******* held you up so you missed the bridge? Tell us and we will never ride with him. He probably didn't even end up riding with you in the end. Jeezuz some...

    Yes it is hard to read but the rules on the board specify small images. Large ones eat up bandwidth. I started a thread with a link to the icon. See it under "CFR". gypsy

    CFR from Maine

    Hi all, I have been watching the weather and it seems to be getting better for the weekend. Tomorrow some showers, sunny Friday, overcast Saturday and then it calls for rain on Sunday but better as you move away from the coast. Hopefully the 'better' trend will continue and we will have sun on...

    Liability Form?

    Actually I am not super concerned because here in Canada it is very difficult to sue someone unless you can show they were negligent...and by that I mean truly negligent. Not like some of the ridiculous suits we see in the US news. Also lawsuits are brought before a judge not a jury. Juries have...

    OMG how could I forget!

    That's ok Jim I am not insulted. It says on their site that they can't call it "scotch" because it is not made in Scotland. There was also a lawsuit brought against them by the Scotch Whisky Association to try and stop them using the name 'Glen' on any of their products. Bear in mind they really...

    What do you do for a living?...
