    Goodbye OR

    Why you no have bike?

    Acf 50

    I use ACF-50 every spring on the CB1100 since it has chrome-plated metal fenders. Except I didn't last year, 'cause, ya know, I'm a dumbass.
  3. $20 for three ear plugs? Pffft. What's the third one for? Do I want to know? Cheapest is to buy a bunch (can usually get box of 200 pr.) of 3M EAR, Howard Leight, or whatever, for $20 and throw them out after every ride. The foam can retain bad stuff and ear infections aren't fun. At least for most people. Short rides and commutes are okay and methinks it's good sometimes to listen for bike gremlins. I used to get minor irritation from foam plugs after long stretches and when they seal well, you'll get an ear pop when you pull them. Saw the MotoGP guys licking the disposables before using them. Thought at first they just like having slender objects in their mouths. But a little lube makes everything better. Now no pop or discomfort. Plus me go fast now.
  4. Look, I told you. It's "ohiofirearmsandpointlessbitching.net". Tonik bought the domain name. Back to your regularly scheduled nonsense: "Blah, blah, blah [insert incoherent political bullshit here] blah, blabbity, blah"

    Nice save.

    Some of the best racing is in Moto3. The last laps in Moto3 at LeMans, including Kornfeil's Evel Kneivel save, was pretty vicious.

    Oh the irony.

    Time for the Euros to pay to defend themselves. Germany struggles to spend 1% of their GDP on defense. We're at something like 4.5%. Oh, and by the way, our hemisphere (western that is) is relatively peaceful.
  7. Which one? Oh never mind. Just pick whichever one suits. Or whichever suit won.

    My MotoGP trip

    Nice Trip for you there Cooter. And good on ya for riding your almost new hyperbike - I'm too much of a wimp to try that. Looks like you were at turn 15? Cool place to watch. The kid and I did the variety pack or whatever where you sit someplace different every day. (Turn 1, Turn 15, Main Grandstand.) Enjoy the bike!
  9. Will definitely be in for this - have missed the last few. May 19 at this point looks clear. Thanks again, Derek. Riding medium.
  10. If you don't get sore after a let workout, you're doing it wrong. Rising out of a chair 2 days after legs should make you cry.
  11. Tonik and Casper - like an old married couple. You need them on your forum.
  12. This is interesting, as I'm considering going to Apple. Wife and kids all have Apple and my extended family all have Apple on the wife's side. My parents and brother are android but are so incommunicado they could have Windows phones for all it matters. Got a 2014 vintage Motorola MotoX that is similar to the Google phones in that it Moto was owned by Google at the time (I think) and so the OS is pretty clean. Or so the story goes. It's got actual wood on the back too. (ooooooh aaaaaaah) But much as I like the phone, battery life is getting low and I didn't get enough memory when I bought the damn thing. Was thinking about the iPhone with the most memory possible. Probably cost twice what I paid for my first car. Bunch of cash. To a non-tech, OS indifferent dork like me - it's basically just a bunch of icons on a piece of glass. But a big screen on a medium-sized phone with a good camera would be nice.
  13. I first met Jerry when I rode sweep for him during my first Epic Ride when he led the slow group on his 'wing. A fine gentleman. I look forward to riding with him in the future. Get well, Jerry. Beat that thing. I will remember you in my prayers. David
  14. Interesting. I'm currently reading "Team of Rivals" by Doris Kearns Goodwin. I'm not too far in, but it's interesting how the Democratic presidents were handling things beyond slavery. Like Polk drumming up a Mexican war so that he can extort the land that ultimately became California, Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. Nice win, but ill gotten. Maybe we should give 'em back?
  15. Great ride and good group to ride with! Thanks for setting this up, John.
  16. I am out. Family needs. Sorry to have missed this two years in a row now.
  17. Enjoy those 80mph speed limit slabs in TX.
  18. Anybody want to guess what the senate vote tally was for Scalia, the "Conservative Icon" Gorsuch replaced?
  19. Got to ride the little brother's Diavel around Whidbey island last summer. Fun power but doesn't turn in worth a damn. Might be related to a rear tire that's an axe handle wide.
  20. U.S. Treasury: $5,900 interest free loan. #ThanksTonik
  21. Can't get through any of that info-tainment manure these days. Written news/commentaries are sometimes moderately tolerable.
  22. Al Franken looked like he was drunk during Trumpy's speech. Even more than usual.
  23. That's the trick. If you have 40/60 target or whatever, keep moving the pool so it keeps that weight. Can take some guts when the 40 becomes 25.
  24. I have a coworker that totally jumped out of the market day after the election. Oops.
