  1. I hate burning bridges but sorry if you wanted me to leave my current employer for yours, you shouldn't have come at me with a lackluster offer knowing what I was looking for. On the bright side when I told current employer I had an outstanding offer they really wow'd me with a substantial raise, bonus 10 days of PTO and willingness to let me work from home a day or two a week. Thats how you make an offer to wow someone to make a decision about their employment
  2. Finally they are replacing the carb I found out Saturday morning. Hopefully this solves the problem as it's been such a headache. I've kept going there because I paid $80 to have them fix it the first time and I'll be damned if I wasn't going to get a fixed mower for my $80
  3. as I've said since the start, I can't be gone from memorial day through 2nd week in july because the twins could come anytime. If it wasn't for that I would have just bought the VFR back and sold it again if I needed to so I could go
  4. going on that Gap trip without a bike would be like going to Pebble Beach or Augusta and not having clubs. Just isn't the same
  5. bingo. I loved the VFR and it will likely be the best bike I will ever own but one day I plan to get a cheap bike again. When that day is who knows. The only times I really miss having a bike is Epic ride and Gap trips.
  6. it's a good thing I love spreadsheets and kept track of every penny I spent on it because from the day I bought it to the day I sold it I only spent about $600 more than I sold it for when you take out typical maintenance and tire costs during 5 years of ownership
  7. for the millionth time the bike being sold was my decision and she told me not to sell it. What's the point of having $5500 sitting in the garage not getting any use and depreciating?

    New Bike!

    Awesome man glad you found something nice!
  9. Looks like a nice down pour with fog when it's getting dark out across the Cherehola
  10. Too late. Too many wrong turns in Adulthood has done that job for you already
  11. in my opinion my driving and commuter riding skills far exceed those of your typical commuter. But my well being doesn't change whether I'm doing 60 or 90 if the other road going individuals lack of skills outweigh my skills. Basically, you can do whatever you want to be safer but that doesn't necessarily mean one way or the other really is because there is an outside component you can't control
  12. The day I got rid of my Tahoe and paid for my Camry in full was the best vehicle related day I've had since my first time down 28
  13. I'm always in the left lane because 95% of the time I'm going passing speeds. I'm very aware of my surroundings because I'm not an idiot so if someone is behind me going faster I move the hell over
  14. if you have the luck I do you'll need that warranty. Mine's not even 3 years old and has horrible issues with starting that I've been dealing with for a year now. Part of me thinks it's the shop but at the same rate they've got it running all 5x I've had it in there and I'll get to mow once before it decides it won't start again
  15. That thought popped in my head last week when I ran my spreadsheet from the house sale. But even if the house sale didn't get cancelled I wouldn't be able to take the time off because I'm starting a new job 2 weeks before and the twins could possibly come as early as then
  16. this is the trip I always wanted to do to get me to ride to and from the gap. I'm following this thread with so much jealousy in my heart
  17. well the shitty thing is that the buyers of are home were fine and had final approval pending the sale on their home. Whoever was buying their home is the one that fucked it up and made a domino effect on at least 3 families and possibly more
  18. My hate this week has been turned up to 11. I will hate where I please
  19. Fuck Bernie. My tax bill will go up $10,000. I don't give a fuck else what that old commie is other than that
  20. I have people who try and buy a house but apparently can't get Final approval. Makes me wonder if they ever even had pre-approval
  21. My condolences. I had some tests done for my annual physical and my wife seems to think the elevated liver enzyme issue is worse than it is and keeps trying to get me to give up beer
  22. Hey Pauly you can borrow my Sena for the ride. The only time its get use anymore is when I got to use my uncles riding mower. Put the helmet on, turned the music up and leaned in to every damn corner I could
