  1. I like the concept...plan it out like a robbery, do some awesome stunta stunts where you're not supposed to, and put it all down to some wicked beatz. Supa phat. It's what I've come to expect from Speed TV. BTW, it's very believable that they film stunting in all kinds of otherwise impossible locations without a producer and a staff securing permission first. I'm sold.
  2. Or we could just ban women, asians, hippies, VW owners, and guys who still listen to Rush. They account for 99.99% of all stupid driving incidents. That way we don't have to do what Europe does, because they are all homos.
  3. This is my favorite part of the guy's response: Answer: I think I feel pretty fucking good!!!
  4. Whatever to Massillon, 21s. to SR62, 62s. to 39, 39 over to Mansfield, 97s. to Lexington. Not much different than wfrpalm's route, but more scenic through Amish country if that's yer thing. Or, be really off the wall and take nothing but back roads and 3-digit routes.
  5. You really haven't lived until you've seen a guy in a zombie suit on stilts hobble around the stage while little musicians play underneath his awkward legs. It's the most Spinal-Tap-Esque thing to witness, ever.
  6. Ride to WV, go through the Monongahela NF, Seneca Rocks, the train at Cass, the radio-telescope, etc. 219 down to Lewisburg is epic. 50 is awesome, 250, 16, you can't go wrong with a trip to SE WV.
  7. Absolutely. And, if it push comes to shove, your insurance company is there to fight for you. That's why you pay 'em, in part.
  8. I left PNC a long time ago, my laundry list of bad customer service is too much to peck out....have very little good to say about their banks, other than the air conditioning seems to work nice in most locations. That's about it.
  9. Anyone who says ANYTHING in a transaction that plays to your sympathy (soldier, christian, out of work mom, whatever) is scamming you. That you can take to the fucking bank. Con means "confidence" and they get it by appealing to be vulnerable or trustworthy. This guy's gullibility stole his bike.
  10. Hate to be Carl from Sling Blade, but your kill switch ain't in is it? Cause, you'd be like the only guy in the history of ever to fall for that.
  11. Ok, here lemme pose something badass for ya... Oh wait, you meant of my license? Crap. I can't do that, it's got personal stuff like where my epic crib is. You understand.
  12. Nice work, I'm a professional airbrush artist myself, tho I limit my work to high-fashion apparel of political figures.
  13. When I got mine, it said "Certified Badass" on it. I tried to correct their mistake, as I'm not really certified, but they insisted and there it remains. True story.
  14. The Galley on 2nd Street is good eats, awesome sammiches and a nice outdoor patio. Always eat there when I'm in the area. Also, Las Trancas is a superb mexican place on Pike St. right out by 77, very nice place.
  15. Damn, two pages of destruction and silliness....love this forum. Donate it to the MSF....they hand them out to noobs who don't have one to wear for the classes. At least puts them to some kind of use. Or, shoot it.
  16. I always hated Bush.
  17. Unless you know someone with some private land, there's nothing near Westerville. You need to get out east or south of Columbus by 50 miles or more until you start seeing some abandoned roads, outlaw trails, etc. You can always go to Perry SF for some trails - it's free since you're both plated...lots of offroad there! I ride dual sport a lot out here east of Columbus, but mostly it's grey-areas and old roads. IM me if you're up for a ride out here, could show ya around.
  18. Strickland is liberal in all the ways I hate, except for guns. There, he's been a friend to the 2nd amendment. But, I'm not a one-issue voter, and his stance on Obamacare alone is reason enough to vote against him. Kasich ain't the perfect answer either, but better on the issues that matter to me.
  19. That's why I won't put fat girls on the back of my bike. You can't buff out thigh damage like that.
  20. Trust me, I'm not a twisty-or-nothing kinda guy, I'm a dual sport rider first and foremost but I've talked a lot of riders who have done Alaska and it just doesn't sound like riding I'd enjoy. My ideal is something with a big mix of terrains and conditions, including technical terrain and Alaska is a marathon of the same conditions for days at a time. Not knocking it, like I said the views would be second to none I just can't get exited about it personally. For me, Baja or Copper Canyon is much more my speed, something like that. I have riding ADHD...need challenged or I get bored easy. I find the idea of an Iron-Butt to be a kind of hell, personally....I'd much rather go ride some trails or something.
  21. I'm really torn on Alaska as a destination. The views and scenery would be just incredible, but the roads don't appeal to me whatsoever. So, for now I just keep looking at trip pics.
  22. As an owner of one, would be very far from what I'd choose if my courier duties involved a lot of traffic. It's a big Vtwin, not happy lurching around at low speeds...it wants to be in the 4000rpm and up range...and it's top heavy. Not what I'd pick for the big city. If I didn't go a scooter route (which I would), I'd choose a standard, small as engine as I could find....maybe an NX125 or 250, or a Honda 250 Nighthawk, or even a TW200.
