    T minus six weeks...

    OK so with some family issues that I've been dealing with, I've done ZERO prep for the 09 IBR. I'm currently in 'bustin ass' mode and hoping to knock out a few rides between now and then. I've given up on my "Top 20" dreams, and just want to be a finisher at this point. So how is the rest of...

    I quit fishing

    Saturday morning I got up early, dressed quietly, made my lunch, grabbed the dog, slipped quietly into the garage to hook the boat up to the truck, and proceeded to back out into a torrential down pour. The wind was blowing 50 mph. I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and...

    Why Men Don't Write Advice Columns

    Dear Walter: I hope you can help me here. The other day, I set off for work leaving my husband in the house watching the TV as usual. I hadn't one more than a mile down the road when my engine conked out and the car shuddered to a halt. I walked back home to get my husband's help. When I got...

    I had a few folks ask me about the shields I tested this past weekend, and got to thinking we should have a little 'shield' testing party. I'm having trouble thinking of a location. I don't have a lot of free time right now, but I could set aside next Saturday October 13th. That, and I don't...

He gets up, staggers to the table, leans over, looks the biggest, meanest, biker in the face and says: "I went by your grandma's house today and I saw her...

    SkooterG update!

    Just got of the phone with Skooter. Sorry if my writing kind of bounces around a bit. Our conversation pretty much bounced around and I tried to scribble down notes to post.... He's a hurtin' puppy right now. Like most other riders, he headed for the bonuses in Canada and has been basically...

    www.mrcycles.com

    OK, so I'm not one to normally publicly talk badly about a vendor, but this one has really pissed me off. On Monday May 21, I ordered some parts from www.mrcycles.com.
