    Well, poopie!

    Hey! I was in PCB for vacation last summer! The alligator pond was a must-see! Although, I ended up being a definite stupid one. While shooting birds with one leg of my tripod actually in the water, I went to check a pic on the LCD and almost shit myself when I saw this: I did back up...

    Weekly Harley Rant

    I must ask the question - is it only here in western Mass and/or where was it communicated that as of this year it's considered "the" new cool thing to ride side-by-side as if they're Jon and Ponch? I just can't fathom that the lack of gear and general riding technique just wasn't enough. They...

    So from this picture can I conclude that you're "down with OPP"?

    What Digital Camera to buy?

    Holy shit, I think I have the exact same system! Only mine takes some decent shots - and then bitches about my stuff in the spare bedroom.

    What Digital Camera to buy?

    I think I liked the ruggedness and handiness of the GPS tagging as much if not more than the waterproof feature.

    Hurricane Irene

    My weather station recorded approx. 6" of rain and 46mph wind Sun. night. Flooding was insane! Lots of washed out roads here, but looks like southern VT got hit even worse. Several sections of Rt. 8 are either closed (gone) or one lane through western MA. I believe Rt. 2 is impassable from...

    Ride Suggestions Requested

    I just saw a picture of one spot on Rt. 2 on the far West end of MA that is basically gone. I know there are many many places where you would need to watch for gravel washed onto the road in corners to the much worse situations where rivers/brooks raged and washed out roads. I'm sure there...

    Informative site

    After a while, you'll realize it's evolved from merely a site to become a "community". And then, after your first FJR gathering (EOM, NERDS, NAFO, etc.) you will discover it's one big (somewhat disfunctional) family!

    NERDS check in please....

    After taking the scenic route, which turned into a 400 mile day, I'm home safe & sound. So glad I got to see some of my friends again - and even made a couple/few more!

    NERDS '11 is On-Line!

    Yeah, coming up unsupervised this time. Julie's daughter's coming to visit, plus won't have to find someone to watch Moby.

    NERDS '11 is On-Line!

    Hey, remember me? Need to blow some cobwebs out of the poor dusty bike, so looks like (once the girl calls me back so I can book) I'll be heading up on Thursday, playing around on Friday and then heading back on Saturday. Will be nice to get out there and let the bike breathe a little!

    Need OEM Front and Rear Seats for '05

    I just so happen to have my stock front and rear seats squirreled somewhere in the garage. This week is insane, but if we figure out a deal or something, I could prob. get them out next week.

    Covered Bridges of Southern NH - 2010

    Well, to my surprise, when I mentioned going up there on Sunday Julie got pretty excited about it. So, perhaps we may head up there in the morning. Greg, what time were you thinking of heading out and about Sunday morning? I believe I have your cell phone # Greg unless it's changed over the...
