Thank you for sharing. I met Jay and Sharon at EOM many moons ago. Sorry to here about the current situation - I've reached out to Sharon in hopes of being able to make a contribution to the cause on behalf of the 2022 FJR Eastern Owners Meet.

I've managed to avoid any impacts here in Michigan in recent years, but have had many close calls, both in the car/truck and on the bike. The deer herd in lower Michigan is still over populated. I was in VA when I hit and ran over the deer in 2016 on the FJR. I've hit deer before, in a truck...

Ken made it home, we should see an update from him once he gets settled. A huge thank you to Mike (DSBiker) and his wonderful wife, Wanda for getting Ken back to the hotel Friday. And another huge thank you to Jason (Jwilly) and his amazing girlfriend Sonya for going to check on Ken in Johnson...

Wytheville, VA this year. EOM happens every September, keep an eye here for info each year...

Just got off the phone with Ken - Blufjr Ken went off the road yesterday, but is ok. The incident happened yesterday while riding with Oface and Petey in eastern TN while riding during the EOM event. Ken ran off the road, striking a post and landing back in the road. He sustained minor...

Joe - did you get any hard miles in the twisties on these? Wondering how they stack up traction wise; mileage is good, but worthless to me if they won't hold a line and allow you to keep the bike pointed where you want it at "brisk" pace...

It is a great set up. Last year, I borrowed my brothers pickup for a couple of days and he had my Jetta. He drives 2 land secondary roads to / from work and over a 4 day period got 53mpg average out of it. He couldn't believe it, but I calculated it after and nearly matched what the trip...

Fred - latest report that I read stated $5100 to $10,000 (NYTimes) plus buy back at pre-scandal values (I assume in the form of a trade in). It's all still speculation, but the VW Diesel Emisions site was updated with a timeline that owners can expect the settlement info to be mailed to us...

This hits home for me - we have two Jetta TDI's in the driveway. They (VW) got caught, plain and simple. Latest opinions on the settlement puts (more) cash in my pocket (to the tune of $5100 to $10,000) as well as trade-in allowance at pre-scandle values. It's a win / win for me, except the...

I've been finding the best prices at americanmototire.com, they are based in GA too. Metzeler Z8 has given me the best distance - 8k - which is exceptional considering I get 4k out of PR2 rears... Wayne

Catching some of the rave reviews of the movie today...wow. This movie was going to be measured against the Charlie Borman / Ewan McGregor "Long Way Round / Down" projects. This project was not a motorcycle movie at all. It was a project exploring what it means to this group of individuals to...

Just got home from it.

I follow dual sport guy on Youtube; he just posted a review of what equipment he uses and how he sets it up - he's a fan of the Sony AS100. I am current test driving a GoPro that was loaned to me. I did a dual sport ride a couple of weeks ago and collected about 2 1/2 hours of raw footage...

Happy Birthday young man!!

Happy Birthday Tyler!! Hope you have a tremendous day!

My daughter is going to school in portland,OR right now. We have found the best deals with southwest airlines typically 90 to 110 days out from the flight date. We have found calling them directly has netted better prices versus the discount travel websites.

That motor had to go or it was going to end up in a go-kart frame...

Lot's of interesting opinions and discussion in this thread. Like 'Zilla and Redfish, I have also made those assumptions about other riders based on what they are wearing. Doug's post rings the bell for me. My picture is of my '09 sitting on a flatbed after we played ping-pong in rush hour...

It was very good - very classy and appropriate. Too often, performers try to add their own 'flavor' - the Nation Anthem is not that type of number...

Semper Fidelis, Brothers - and thank you to all our Veteran's.
