My son and I will be there in the grandstands on the last day of the race, then off to Wendover, Utah to try to catch some LSR efforts on the salt flats. Then off to fly fish in Idaho, then off to the Cody Museum. We have a lot planned in ten days.

About 40 years ago I embarked on the search for the perfect cigar......for me, not necessarily for anyone else. I found a few I liked over the years, but within the last year, as a result of a recommendation from a fellow cigar smoker, I found the Hoyo de Monterrey Reposado en Cedros. Mild...

In the spirit of Talk like a Pirate day, The Last Saskatchewan Pirate....... Arrrrrrrrrrrg!

Garage Door Security Saw this on another forum. Took about five minutes to zip tie my releases shut. You don't use the release often anyway.

37 for the same company so far. If all goes well, I retire on May 5th, 2017 with 44 years. You are right, 50% of all employees in the United States have been in their current jobs less than two years. I am a dinosaur. :rolleyes: But 3,000 miles on the FJR last month, so all is good!

And we agonize over our risers and bar backs having jussssssst the right position. Wrist pain wouldn't be an issue with those babies!

FjrFencer, she would have probably gotten straight "A"s without the incentive. I bet she didn't think much about the incentive after it was offered anyway. What you are going to do in holding up your end of the bargain is to be able to say that you knew she would have gotten straight "A's...

We had a thread going on this for quite a while, but I can't find it........ Anyway, I plumbed up a Quest GPS to my '05 about two weeks ago, took it for a test ride and all went well. Today, I plunk the GPS in its mount and........nothing. I pull it out, and try again......nothing. Acts as...

Brad, so glad your wife made it through all of this in one piece! This morning, I'm driving to work in the cage and watching the latest helmetless rider zip past me doing about 90 on the Beltway, thinking "wish there were a site that posted pictures of WHY it's such a grand idea to wear all the...

See link to my India trip report. Fun place, life pared down to the basics. https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?s...87&hl=india

Adam, hang in there guy......we need you to lead the pack again at a future SFO! Tim

4given-squid, thanks so much for keeping us up to date on Adam's condiition! Adam was surely one of the core members of the first SFO and it pains me to think of him going through what he's experiencing now. I am SO glad that he had a bunch of fellow riders there at the hospital with him. We...

Red with black trim bought used for $500 on IBMWR site seven years ago. Not as visible as Hi Vis, but pretty good conspicuity. Hot but wearable in summer Texas heat. Don't leave home without it.

Congratulations Silver Penguin! As far as designations for your title go, I particularly like the Internet BMW Riders bunch who have decided that they are all "Presidents". Having been a former "President", I found it particulary helpful to get time off from work using this moniker. "Well, I...

We had a toy run NW of Houston yesterday and I'm sure thousands of the Harley Faithful attended and brought toys out for a good cause. Great waves of local clubs were headed out my local freeway to the run and I came up along side a springer rider and his pillion in a line of maybe a hundred...

Pottery link was wrong, but.......these are all COLLECTABLE downloads. Just the thing for any rider who takes his or her ride too seriously. :)

I've not had any problems with 10% ethanol now mandated for the Houston, Texas area and surrounding counties in the FJR, but a friend of mine with a V-Star with carbs says that his dealer has a list of all the bikes with carbs he has in the shop with driveability problems that require carb...

With 6,800 miles on a BT020 rear, I changed out to an Avon V46 rear this week. Are you all getting about two rear tire changes to one front? The original BT020 front is just beginning to wear and cup a bit and feels fine. I'm hoping to get another 2-3,000 out of it at least. Especially since...

Two words: Aerostitch Roadcrafter

+1 on the bigger (they call 'em 3 person) tend with a mesh top and a fly in case of rain. Places like Academy or any of the other big sporting goods stores sell 3" diameter fold up fans that run on 2-D cells. A new set of D cells will run a fan like this for maybe two nights, three if you are...
