  1. http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2010/04/the_woman_found_on_interstate.html A whole lot of fail to go around
  2. These threads belong together.
  3. These threads belong together.
  4. So far they have all been paved. I was expecting gravel or unmaintained county roads but other than a buggy or a pony traveling down the side of the road they are just like most other roads. Sometimes the buggies or ponies operate funny when a bunch of bikes go riding buy. If you like to be entertained while you are riding these operating errors are quite amusing. A high side off of a bike is nothing compared to a pony launcher.
  5. Unless some gravel reaches up and pulls you down to the ground when you're trying to park.
  6. The rule is if your fast enough to drag a knee you're too cool and make the rest of us look bad so you can't ride with us.
  7. I think Buedell must be drunk this morning because he can't seem to complete a thought or he's just a post whore.
  8. How is this for a great big NO! I hope he doesn't mind me posting a picture of his leg but this is Inya's result of not having proper riding boots. Ask him what he thinks about riding shoes. He was wearing some sort of boots but I don't think they were very protection oriented.
  9. You buy riding shoes and I'm smacking you right in the fat of your head. Boots only.
  10. At the end of this thread. http://www.ohio-riders.com/showthread.php?t=56037
  11. Those Buells must piss everyone off. That was funny to watch, you had to get a head of steam up so you could take your hand off of the throttle to flip him off. I guess he was the passing monitor, then I passed him without incident, I think you scared him.
  12. Shouldn't you still be in bed with a hangover?
  13. You could have asked me, he is correct the 08 owner’s manual does call them Hurricanes. The pictures above are of European bikes. (I love the HRC anniversary paint scheme.) Drama on a large group ride didn't happen no way. Someone does a wheelie in the middle of the pack on a group ride and I chastise them once in front of everyone. They do it again and I make sure they stay in the back or they decide to ride on their own. Wheelies should be covered in the riders meeting. I think they are cool and all but do them at the back as the last rider no problem, hell I wish I could do them. Shenanigans in the group just means the pace is too slow. This sounds like everyone should have know a fast pace wasn't possible and acted appropriately.
  14. I'm glad they are replaced and I hope he likes the feel of the new tires.
  15. I hate to disagree with the experts here but he only rides about 2,500 miles a year and he isn't pushing any limits with 10,000 miles on the existing tires. He has a good two years left in them with the way he has been riding and I highly doubt they will fail before that. This all changes if he plans to do a track day or to try more aggressive riding.
  16. This is my single bag setup. I kept putting stuff in the double bag setup and couldn't believe how heavy it was when I took it off. I will bring it out for trips or really big group rides. The baby is still with the double bag setup. This single bag setup I only have a first aid kit and a good small tool set. It's good for holding the clothes I take off as the day gets warmer, spare shields, food and water I don’t finish at gas stops or others peoples junk who don’t have storage space.
  17. I think we have a bromance going on here guys. Nick and Ben sitting in a tree......
  18. I kind of thought that at first because there are no sliding scratches around the hole. You ride too fast if you are down that low. Don't you know we have rules.
  19. Was this done on your way to meet us? Bike pictures?
  20. Five miles of highway in the middle of nowhere will probably generate $500 to $600 for the local community even if we can change these four tickets into non moving violations. Does anyone know how the Wooster court works? Do they allow you talk to the prosecutor before you make it into court? Do they deal there and allow you to plea to a non moving violation? Anyone know a local lawyer down there with success in that court, possibly a group buy in for their services? I really don't know how fast we were going when we were clocked because I don't know when it actually happened but we were cited for speeding 13 over the posted limit. I bet they didn't issue a ticket out there all day for anything that was less than 10 over. I covered 314 miles for the day we were moving for 5:41 with an average moving speed of 55.1. Total trip time was 9:04 with an overall average of 34.6 (Thanks to the long delay to have four tickets written.) With the exception of the ticket I had a good time. Nice to meet the guys I haven’t rode with before; I hope to do it again soon. The new pavement on 83 south of 146 to 78 is a great stretch of road.
  21. I'm home, hot and hungry will post more later after a meal and a nap.
  22. Get out of the rack, get out of the rack, get out of the rack. Let's go riding ladies.
  23. You are more than welcome to start with us at the Circle K in Eaton but we will still have about 65 miles of straight boring road until we get to Millersburg. If it were me I might try to meet us in Millersburg if you can find a good route to get there. Here is the route again in case anyone missed it several pages back. If you are a faster rider you can memorize the route, that way if you find the pace not to your liking you can run up front.
