  1. My neighbor and i brew our own. We've done quite a few batches. Couple lagers, porters and my favorite... Stouts. Haven't made a batch we didn't like yet. Best batch we've done was a Chocolate Oatmeal Stout. 5 gallon batch only lasted a week lol

    Grape and grainery is the best place to go for kits. Luckily it's only a 20 min drive for me.

    Home brewing is not cost effective.

    Got all new cables, bars, grips, points, removed rear fender. Still deciding on what to do with the seat but i'm loving it... for a 350 i'm happy with it. I do need to upgrade to a front disc brake the way i ride it.

    Was going to leave the patina on the engine case but it looked like shit lol. roughly polished cases.

    Found on Craigslist. Guy (actually his name lol) wanted $250. after talking to him for 4 hours and taking a tour of all of his cars and collection of "stuff" (like a episode of American Pickers) he gave it to me for $150. No title but bill of sale.

    Started digging for a title. Bike came from New York. So we started there. Good news. Bike has never been titled nor registered! :wtf:

    Ohio BMV says bring it down, have it inspected, get title. easy enough. Clean carbs, starts up... Strip down starts...

  6. Actually, he was not raised that way. He was born again...

    "Although his first years of college meant “party all the time” like a stereotypical college kid, she said, “He completely changed” when he joined the church. He began hanging out with a new set of friends, and his faith in God bloomed."

    CANTON —

    Dale Settle Jr. held out his Bible when armed robbers approached him and two other young people arriving for a late-night home Bible study Thursday.

    “In the name of Jesus, your gun won’t fire,” Settle repeated several times.

    But it did.
