unOFFICIAL OR Spring Epic Ride 2017 - May 20, 2017
granda080 replied to DerekClouser's topic in Events
I need to get back into riding...We need to get together sometime. I wish it could be this, but I promised Hudson I would take her to Pole Day at Indy. -
This suit is a few years old but in excellent condition. It has never been down...not even a knee. I've used it on several rides. The most damage it's taken has been some bugs hitting it. The suit is two pieces but it does zip together. The coat is a US 50 and the pants are a US 44. I'm a fairly big guy. I would guess this would probably fit someone who is roughly 5'10"-6'3" tall and depending on build 220-260lbs. You are certainly encouraged to try it on before you buy it. Again, it's in excellent condition. No smoking, crazy stains, or funky odors. I'm asking $475, I may also consider trades. I really don't get the chance to ride anymore and when I do this is certainly overkill. Thanks Read Less

Maybe we will get better weather next time.

I have a 2.0T VW Passat. It's my second one. I looked for a TDI, they do make them, but couldn't find one. Funnily, the thing that makes me happiest about my car is that the dash is symmetrical lol.

Ben, if it doesn't get picked up let me know.

Foot hand and mouth disease. Super contagious and seems to be making the rounds.

My dad had 2 MGC's. He is Mr. MG. he has fully restored several and repaired them for years. If you are looking for parts or anything let me know. He has a garage full of them.

I personally love seeing the Jackass Flats, Dayton bar, bike nights. It's hundreds of bikes. Nothing says fun like tossing a leg over the bike, riding two miles. Drinking copious amounts of alcohol and talking about how bad ass your bike is. Only to toss a leg over again, with or without assistance, to ride back those two miles. Then be like, "Damn, I'm a Boss" and "I bet I looked ultra hot to those 55 year old, fake tan, worn out old hags". Nothing says satisfaction like when you finally make it home and are hanging up your vest with all those SoA patches and unlacing those brand new orange and black boots, to slip on those Sperrys and bust back out the Tommy H polo. Straight up hardcore. This is what I dream for kids. This right here.

How was Joe's? I haven't been in there for a long time.

My exact thought as well.

The Michigan St. / Baylor game was pretty amazing.

Just speaking from a school perspective. If this kid brought this gun into our school he would be expelled. Regardless of intent. Like it or hate it, that would be the outcome at ANY school.

Just an update: I had open carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand a month ago tomorrow. Thus far it hasn't been as terrible as I expected it to be. The surgery wasn't too terrible and the "pain" wasn't bad. I only took about 12 of the pain killers and was finished with them by the third day. The recovery thus far has been very odd. There are days that it is very swollen and feels bloated, but mostly it seems alright. At this point I can type easily with no issues. I can hold and write with a pen but it will start to get sore after a few lines. Recently I found that I can throw a dart, which is something that I was upset about not being able to do. Occasionally, it will spasm and have some minor pain. If I apply any type of bending of my wrist and pushing it is a more significant pain. The thought of riding is truly laughable. The decrease in my grip strength and stamina are severely depreciated. The doctor said don't expect to hold a gallon of milk by December. I can hold it now...I just can't move my wrist while doing it. The numbness, which was the major reason aside from the reduced strength issues, was why I decided to have the surgery. To this point my index finger is completely alleviated of the tingling sensation which has been great. My thumb goes through spells of being numb and tingling, to bloated feeling, to actually feeling like a "normal" digit. I haven't had any referral to OT as of yet. My doctor seems pleased with my progression thus far. I have seen our OT at work a few times to ask questions and get some exercises to try. Overall, I'm satisfied with my decision at this point. If it changes I'll certainly voice that. Again, it hasn't been terribly painful and a month into it I'm able to do most things without too much issues. Just being cognizant of it and making good choices. Cheers

Welcome from Huber as well.

He means a car that partook in a flood. Katrina or local flooding. If that is a legitimate concern check the carpet for waterline or funky odor.

We have a pilot and love it as well.

At least you have the potential to make a decent wage. I have and undergrad and masters in education...I worked all through school and my parents didn't have any way to help me financially, so I had to take out loans. I literally will never, in my life, make enough money to pay them off. The system is beyond broken. Good on you for paying them off, as annoying as it may be. I had to differ the shit out of mine and then tell them I couldn't afford $800+ a month. Laughable. Oh well went into it to help the kids. Hopefully you went into law to help people as well.

Watch the last 30 seconds. Sounds as terrible as yours lol

If you think that is "visible" in that picture you're nuts lol.

I high sided my bike a few years ago and was pretty lucky to not be seriously hurt. For me I spend some time trying to focus on how it happened, but in all honesty it happened so fast it's truly hard to fully know. The next thing I did was spend time bettering myself on the art of riding. That meant reading and watching some instructional videos. I also found that tearing down my bike and fixing it was helpful in getting back out riding. I know for some once the crash they are done. I think for me it was actually beneficial. It made me want to be a better rider. You can't change the past. You can only hope to learn the lessons from it and try not to repeat them.

You have a Ninja and not a Buel Blast? Lol
