    H.B. No. 1522 Lane Splitting

    I can't remember any details. But I think it basically got ignored for other legislation and therefore didn't even get voted on. Honesltly, the thought of lane splitting in Austin both excites me and terrifies me. I think it would take 3 years before these idiots had a general understanding of...

    Broken Glove Box Latch

    there wasn't a sticker when new... At least not on my bike. I was suggesting one might have been a good idea!

    Broken Glove Box Latch

    I know we are suppose to read the manual, but a little sticker on the box that says "ignition must be on and transmission in nuetral to open" would sure have saved some unnecessary repairs!

    Broken Glove Box Latch

    Mine's busted as well. I can hear the solenoid working, but it doesn't latch. I'm running the tape mod as well, since I'm out of warranty :-( I have to confess that it's probably my own fault. When I first got the bike I didn't realize it had to be in nuetral to release the latch. So, I simply...

    Skyway's heading south to Cabo San Lucas

    I think it was exactly a year ago that I was there. I am so ready to go back. It's a very fun place. Although, it takes a little practice to start drinking at noon and stay up to party at the Cabo Wabo Cantina, which doesn't start kicking until after 10pm. All too often I found myslef partied...

    The Rear View Helmet

    Seems like that could take some getting used to. When you turn your head left, you will see more of what's back and to the right, unlike looking at the your mirror on the bike. I think it might be easy to get disoriented in a panic situation.

    OST in Bandera-Breakfast 12/10 @ 9a?

    Afraid I'll be out east in Huntsville that day. My wife is running (yes, on foot) 50 miles in one event. She's doing it to raise funds for a medical foundation. I think somethings not right in her head. Ya'll have fun.

    Skyway's heading south to Cabo San Lucas

    I was in cabo last fall, and had a blast. Cost for most items is about the same or just a little less than in the states. Except for the women. You're money will go a little farther there, than here at home. Or, so I've been told :-) there's a restaurant just outside of Town called La Villa...

    Digital Hard Drive CamCorders

    I just bought the 20gb JVC Everio. I dream of eventually mounting on the bike to record a ride. But, that is a ways off. the lack of tapes or discs sure is an advantage. Even at the highest quality, it will hold 4.5 hours. Unfortunately, the battery is only good for 1 hour. guess I could wire up...

    OST in Bandera-Breakfast 11/19 @ 9a

    Even if I didn't have to work Saturday night, I might be too whimpy for this ride. It look to be about 40ish in the morning. Ya'll have fun and dress appropriately! When you start complaining about the cold, think back to one of those August afternoons at about 100 degrees!

    OST in Bandera-Breakfast 11/19 @ 9a

    I'd love to go. But, I gotta work that night. I could call in sick, but I'd have to cough up a lung.

    Don't it feel good?

    I almost rode right past work everyday this week, just to keep riding. I'm so glad it's not 95-100 degrees out there. We need to get a rdie organized while the weather is perfect.

    This bike is saving my marriage!!

    Sorry, I destroyed as much evidence as possible, then foolishly confessed. It's only in my head now. .....(nods off in day-dreamy gaze).......

    This bike is saving my marriage!!

    Sounds familiar: Mine runs daily (she likes the running, but it does keep her looking good) She makes more money than me, and I do allright. She forgave me for that stripper incident. She lets me have my toys, without too much complaining. She likes to ride. But works and runs too much to...

    Don't it feel good?

    When's the next Hill Country ride or East Texas ride, or West Texas ride or coastal cruise? I'm loving the weather. I've been commuting almost everyday on the Feejer.

    Hamburger Wednesday At The Icehouse

    So, is it worth ridin' 3 hours for one of their Hamburgers? I assume this happens tonight, 10-26?

    Hill Country Gettogether

    I had great time as well. Although I didn't log 1200 miles :-) I wish I would have road a little longer with you guys on Saturday. But, I got back in time to see a little of the game and make the mandatory dinner with the N'Laws. I think the Rock Dome Scott refers to is Enchanted Rock . While...

    Hill Country Gettogether

    The Hill-Country is hardly Flat-land. Texas does have mountains. Hillbillies are everywhere. But, most Texas hillbillies are in the pines and swamps of east texas. We've got plenty of Rednecks and Roughnecks, especially in the plains and on the substantial coastline. I prefer the term Good...
