  1. Don't let UP fool you, he's twi-curious.
  2. I think that's the best in town, sorry If you take 33 into Harrisonburg, VA there are lots of good restaurants and bars near James Madison University.
  3. Avoid the Days Inn in Elkins. Seriously. Take a look at this route. It includes Smoke Hole Rd. http://www.motoroads.net/routes/DadsRun/DadsRun.htm btw, occasionally I see your Duc in Ridgeville, near 83.
  4. Here is an uber twisty 2 day OH/WV route. Elkins is a decent place to spend the night. Just avoid the Days Inn, it was concerted from an old hospital. I kind of feels like an asylum. The Holiday in is much nicer. Bolivar, OH to Elkins, WV and back Day 1 1.OH-93 S 2.OH-83 S 3.OH-78 W 4.OH-377 S 5.OH-550 E 6.OH-7 E 7. I-77 S into West Virginia 8.

You can reach some other excellent roads if you add a 3rd day.
  5. An old favorite. Sorry for all the time you're about to waste: http://textsfromlastnight.com/Texts-From-Best-Nights.html http://textsfromlastnight.com/Texts-From-Best-Nights-Month.html http://textsfromlastnight.com/Texts-From-Worst-Nights.html http://textsfromlastnight.com/Texts-From-Worst-Nights-Month.html
  6. The most "fun" bike I've had in recent memory was a twin. It was that Gladius I used to bounce off the rev limiter all day. It wasn't the most capable, but it was an absolute hoot to ride. Sorry....back to the dick jokes.
  7. If you do. I'm selling an immaculate 2010 CBR600RR with ABS and Helibars. I'm close to Cleveland. I also used to have an F4i. The RR is better in every way.
  8. Blanks have less powder than live rounds. They won't cycle the weapon without an adapter.
  9. The tq and hp curve for something like a 1125R or RC8R is nearly identical to the latest gen Z1000. Most moto rags would argue the Z1000 motor is better suited to street riding than a ZX10 motor. I tend to think that is pretty fair assessment for 90% of riders. Your particular riding style is for sure in the other 10%. The Panigale was engineered to deliver top end power much like an I4...that might suit you.
  10. Thanks. On top of the neck pain, my left hand has been partially numb for about 4 months. Riding at Deals gap was interesting not being able to really feel the road. It's really limited my riding this season, but it's sloooowly getting better. I'll be in Vegas for the next 2 weekends (national pool tournament), I'll hope to be riding again after that.
  11. I expected Bush and Paul to do better.
  12. It thought the ones that did the best were Huckabee, Rubio, Carson I thought the worst were: Cruz, Christie, Trump
  13. Does owning a team mean he paid the online subscription?
  14. Brisk = This is an experienced group that enjoys riding twisty roads a pretty fast sporting pace. No egos involved, but we try to give fair notice that this isn't a Sunday stroll to look at scenery. In the past, some have showed up and were kinda turned off by the pace, or worse...rode beyond their limits trying to keep up. You may show up and be faster or slower than the group. If you're faster go ahead and take the lead. We'll gladly follow and try to learn something from you. If the pace is quicker than your used to riding, that's cool. Just be sensible and ride your ride within your comfort zone. Everyone would rather wait a few minutes at a stop sign than on the side of the road for a tow truck or ambulance. That's my interpretation. That said, I won't make it. My neck is messed right now. It's painful enough that riding isn't fun.
  15. Precisely. Like a goddam turducken, only better cause it's cheese.
  16. I'll put cheese on another fucking kind of cheese.
  17. I believe he is actually facing criminal charges.
  18. I never really cared if cars were fun to drive. It's just a tool to get people and stuff from A to B. I'm good as long as it starts every time. Fun happens on 2 wheels with my face in the wind.
  19. I'd like to ride but still having issues with my neck. I'm a game time decision.
  20. This is from a racer who competed in WSBK and GP
