    Ray Slocomb, FjRay - Now on second honeymoon with Patti

    Many years ago when I first started lurking on this forum Ray was a Larger Than Life presence here. When I finally got to meet he and Patti at the first YFO they probably thought I was crazy, I was So Happy to meet them both. Pop and I were privileged to ride with them for two magical days...

    Name That Place Game

    You are correct on the name, but pretty far off on the location.  Tucumcari is completely on the eastern side of NM, Shiprock is completely to the western side.  Actually outside the town of Shiprock (go figure), getting very close to the 4 corners area.

    Where's That Other Forum?

    It is.  And there will be consequences.

    Where's That Other Forum?

    I spoke to Extrememarine yesterday and he tells me they are working on it.  A couple of things went wrong with some maintenance/upgrades and they are working to resolve it.  It seems to me that any of the longer lasting forums eventually have some issues as things change and grow, this forum has...

    Anyone hear from Fred W?

    Fred, do you use the same forum name on ADVrider?  I am beginning to wonder if I will ever make it up to the east coast but a dual sport ride in Vermont sounds wonderful.

    Time to say goodbye

    Bounce if you are answering me, it was a 2008 GoldWing.  The 1800 Hondapotamous.  I actually like the big Honda pretty well but Pop did not. We had a 1984 GoldWing Interstate, a Wineberry Red 1200.  We loved that thing and it is still my favorite of all the GoldWings.

    Goodmans ride Arkansas Ozarks and Talimena June 2020

    Great to see you still posting your Ride Reports and pics.  Some of your stuff shaped Rides and Vacations for me and my family. Pop and I spent a night at the Mt. Magazine Lodge and I have a pic of him sitting at that same table.  But even with her mask, Tammy is a lot nicer to look at!

    Time to say goodbye

    Gary, I am glad to see you are still around.  I am sad that you bought a GoldWing you don't ride. A couple days ago I met up with Pop for a short FJR ride.  Pop will be 75 this month and he really looks it these days.  I keep wondering when he will retire his FJR but he doesn't seem to be ready...

    It looks like you are enjoying the Super Tenere.  I have thought about that bike a lot...

    Hurricane Michael, a personal view...

    I know I probably should not post after having a couple of beers but your dilemma has been eating at me.  I am so sorry you are dealing with all of this. I can tell you that I have been the "victim" of a storm and I have been the contractor making money after the storm and I have been the guy...

    New to me 2015 FJR 1300 ES

    Just some opinions from a fellow '15ES owner, I believe RossKean is 100% correct.  Auxiliary Lighting.  Get Some. The AssFault Gray of the '15 just disappears, blends in or something.  I have had more bird kills with this motorcycle than all of my riding friends combined.  I mounted some LEDs...

    Is ES worth the money ?

    That depends entirely on YOU.  I love mine.  It may not do YOU any good at all.   For me just the blacked out color scheme on my AssFault Gray 2015 was worth the money.  Then add in the ability to quickly change preload and damping with a few button strokes... For my Pop it is a non issue.  He...

    Adventure Series

    Yes. Please have someone video it and post it here. You probably won't be in any shape to post for a while after that.

    Scotch or Bourbon?

    Yes. But if you don't mind I will only sip a little bit at a time. It pretty much removes my filter.

    The Goodmans' California quest for great roads and scenery

    This was Very Good Stuff. I appreciate you taking the time to put it together. Last night I was reading through this and Mrs. Redfish waddled in and looked over my shoulder. She commented on the beautiful pics. I reminded her of the Yellowstone pics, in particular the big waterfall in the...

    Fred W and TMJ's Vacation Ride to the Great Divide

    I am leaving in one week headed to Deadwood. Pop wants to see Mount Rushmore. After this, the only other place he Really wants to see is Maine so he can eat a lobster. He is happy wherever I lead him but Rushmore and the New England Coast are the last two places he has on his...list. It just...

    Fred W and TMJ's Vacation Ride to the Great Divide

    Sorry, had to revive this Dinosaur of a Ride Report. I am doing some research on a Trip and remembered this splendid source of information from 5 years ago. Still Good Stuff.

    Letting go

    My Pop had two older brothers, they were twins. They drowned together in 1966. One of them had a very special '66 Chevy truck. He had ordered it from the factory with options that were very uncommon in a truck at that time. It had chrome hubcaps, a chrome front bumper, a 327 V8, Powerglide...

    Bike **** .....

    And thanks to the title of this thread I can't look at this forum at work now. Good Job by the guy just trying to up his post count.

    Bike **** .....

    I am not sure if I drank too much last night or if I need to drink a lot more this morning but I really have no idea what the OP is trying to say.
