    A ride around Kentucky with an Angel

    It’s way over due, but I guess it’s finally time for me to post up a little ride report. I’ve mostly been a lurker here for a number of years, but now, after getting my personal life a bit more in order, I think it’s finally time to contribute a bit more to the festivities. First though, some...

    When chaps go bad.

    Co-worker sent me this link the other day. It seems this guy's chaps came undone and got caught in his rear wheel. Not a fun ride.

    global warming causes??

    Got into a discussion about global warming with a co-worker today. One of the comments was that CO2 isn't as much of a greenhouse gas as methane, from what I understand. So....cow and other animal farts are probably more of a contributer to global warming than the exhaust from our bike is...

Why are you celebrating the birth of a...

    Got a speeding ticket.

    What the heck. Figure everyone will get a chuckle out of this one... Was on my way to work a couple weeks ago at about 6:30 AM. I was on a four lane side road with a speed limit of 55. As I was coming up to a light it changed. The cars in front of me made it through but I decided to not...

    Miatas at the Gap this weekend

    Time for my annual "avoid the Gap this weekend" warning. This coming weekend is the annual Miatas at the Gap weekend. They usually draw about 200 to 500 cars there so it's going to be even more crowded with crazy car drivers than normal. And those Miata drivers are really crazy. I know....I...

    Harley Ride report

    Hey Folks, Here's the set up.... My friend Chris bought himself a Harley Sportster 883L. He figured that the $100 payments and 60 mpg would be cheaper than the $400 per month that he was spending on gas to get to and from work in his Ranger pick-up. Unfortunately, even though he grew up...

    welding training in the Atlanta area

    Hey folks, This might be a little off topic but thought I'd try it here so only folks in this area would be bothered by it. I was wondering if anyone on this forum in the Atlanta area knows how to weld good enough to give me some lessons? I just inherited an old Lincon gas engine powered DC...

    Other activities on the bike show weekend

    Just in case anyone is interested, there is a computer show at Jim Miller park (clicky) the same weekend as the Bike show. I've never been to this one so don't have a clue what it's like but figured if you don't spend all your money at the bike show and need some farkles for your PC you might...
