    Thinking back... new rider mistakes

    My most embarrassing bone head was coming to a traffic light and forgetting I had my thick tread hiking boots on instead of my usual riding boots and my foot getting stuck on the left peg and toppling over. I didn't get hurt nor did the bike and all I could do was lay there and laugh. Not only...

    A Cop, Marine and a Sailor.....

    This is something to be very proud of, congratulations. The military is steeped in traditions such as this. I have never had the pleasure of being part of this tradition but I have 2 teenage boys so I may get that chance. I too am a Navy vet, EN2 but I know my uniform will not fit. It does fit...

    Missing Pannier Chrome Strip

    They fell off my '13, went to the dealer, they ordered them, both sides warranty. They are on back order because it's happening a lot, they covered mine.

    Gerbing Heated Gloves

    I find my Yamaha Racing snowmobile gloves work great, even at 18 degrees. Slightly bulky but work great. I know they're good at 10 below 0 on my sled, and they're not electric but are designed for those temps.

    What's the Weather like where YOU are today?

    Had my first ride in the snow on Friday night, 8/14. It was about 28 degrees, snowing hard enough to stick on the road, it was kinda fun actually.

    Ken Blocks new mustang

    Shit, I was doing that with my '13 Santa Fe last night, got that 295 horse v6 just cranking, nah just kidding. I do have to say that I wish I could leave work doing that, can't get away from there fast enough. Sweet ride!

    Wrecked the '15 already

    That really sucks donkey ass! But I can't believe you had the testicular fortitude to try and sneak it past your wife, man you got some balls.

    New seat.. I'm on the Laam..

    Nice looking seat(s), has me thinking. Then I must decide between a lama seat or a GIVI top case, ah the tough quandaries we face.

    Well Uncle Hud, they took the weld off, out of 2 years on her I had 1 1/4 years on the bounding main. It was an old girl but we got around. We had females on it so cruises weren't so bad. It's nice to hear from someone else who experienced her.

    Bambi and rudolf

    Ya Silver Spirit we have all of santas and all of the movie deer in Queensbury, it's a very large, fairly rural area. They start getting antsy when it gets close to Christmas, or maybe it's because the hunters start chasing them around the woods, Im not sure which.

    Bambi and rudolf

    Last night on my way home from work (10:15ish pm) I was going around 45-50 mph when I spotted Bambi darting out of the woods about 10 yards in front of me. Had to lock up the binders, the ABS works great. I was able to lock the brakes up and still dive to the left to avoid it. Missed him by 5 or...
