Walking down Fifth Street and into the Georgia Tech hotel for lunch. North Dakota license plate and a Beta off-road t-shirt: Was this you?

See you at the BMR banquet Saturday night?

Some of you may know that my topbox has an “organizer” in it. I've enclosed the term in quotation marks because it’s a really homemade thing, created out of cut-up SlimJim boxes and duct tape. It holds wallet, house keys, pens, aspirin and ibuprofen, miniature LED flashlight, air pressure...

... but it's hard to tell with the miles he racks up as a "retired" guy. Best of luck in ToH 2019, brother!

Probably a day late (or maybe two?) ... but Happy Birthday to 0face -- who don't come 'round here no more. A man who has no problems calling himself a zero. Who's organizing the next NAFO meeting?

Well, looks like somebody's been designing motorbikes as pieces of art, completely disregarding things like handling and rider comfort. Still, pretty spectacular looking machines: https://www.curtissmotorcycles.com/zeus

December 30 29, Stagecoach Cafe, Stockton, AL. Usually December 30. Can't seem to find anything official. (Is there ever anything official?) Best Google find was an announcement from Palmetto BMW Riders. I'll be there barring simultaneous rain and cold. No, I don't do Streets, because I...

OK, so I was looking on the official Yamaha USA website hoping (dreaming) of a 900cc-range Super Ten, and came across this ... in the SPORT TOURING list of bikes! https://www.yamahamotorsports.com/sport-touring/pages/ride-the-revolution Three other links...

The Big Money Rally is getting ready for its annual January 1 start. It runs until May 26, 2018, the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. This rally puts you on roads you would have never considered riding, into an interactive group of riders from across the country, and it's just plain fun...

Yes, it was Shagomatic. Rode my bike to the game (beat Pitt 35-17) and a guy walked up to me as I was saddling up to ride home. "I've got an FJR, too." Nice to meet you, sir. And nice to know other folks here take their football seriously. See you at SFO?

First one: Friday, August 25, Macland Road at West Sandtown Road. Don't remember the color ... grey maybe? Second one: Tuesday, August 29, same general area. This FJR was blue, and had the bags removed. Anybody here? (I assume it was NOT you, SacramentoMike.)

Red, 2014 FJR, rider in full gear with full-face hat (you have earned brownie points). Didn't catch license plate, as I was northbound, headed to Jack's River Falls. Monday, May 29, about 11:00 am. Somebody here?

The guy's name is Yammie Noob, and he started a series of these funny stereotyping videos ... I'm thinking a lot of us fit into #3 or #4.

You were on a silver (2013?) FJR with yellow-tinted headlights and Real Time's reflective decals. Caught you around Delk Road, in the middle of the 'managed lanes' construction. You may have exited at Windy Hill. I was on the Liquid Graphite 2015, yellow helmet, Navy blue Yamaha ventilated...

If you were routing through Atlanta to get to EOM or SFO, check your plans carefully. As you probably heard, we had a bridge collapse yesterday during rush hour: https://www.cnn.com/2017/03/31/us/atlant ... index.html A section of the I-85 viaduct, near its junction with I-75 and GA 400...

Several of the nut cases doing the Big Money Rally (Griff, Tim Roush, me, some others) will be stopping at the Rally Point Sports Grill (catchy name, huh?) in Raleigh for lunch. https://www.rallypointsportgrill.com/ Estimated time of arrival is 11 or so. Raleigh is one of the stopping points we...
