    in Events

    Posted

    Gibby and myself want to go for a ride tomorrow...Anybody care to join us? I know this is short notice. Don't have a ride planned yet either. We still don't know the country roads around here. So if someone wants to go and maybe even knows of good roads around here..let me know.

    You may not have good roads where you are at but we have awesome roads here in my neck o the woods, and that is where Phil likes to ride as well and is where a sportbike shines. Plus he wants to start doing trackdays with us as well, he has made the right choice.

    where are you guys at in relation to Dayton????

    I have the bug to get a full on sport bike alot. Then I get one to do some work on. After my back and palms of my hands kill me I'm happy to get back on the FZ. But the "Ludicrous Speed" factor is tempting, but have have little problem hanging with the R bikes on the street.

    hm, the FZ 1 has the R1 engine in it...on the track it might be better, but I talked to a guy that does track school and when he saw my FZ1 he said, awesome bike even on the track you could kill with it...never tried it, but would love to. :metal:

    I am sure the Bandit is not that easy to whip around as it is a lot heavier than my Fazer, so for track, I would probably ditch the Bandit too, but def not for the road.

    So you wanted advise...go test ride the FZ1...lol

    my hubby rides a bandit 1250 and he has not problems "hanging on" to the sport bikes...:D the handling of the bandit is great.

    the roads here suck for sport bikes or sport touring anyways.... And like jblosser said, it is more fun to ride a slow bike fast, than a fast bike slow...I had a FZ6 in Germany and have no idea why I upgraded here. Not like the FZ6 was slow..lol...but this is driving me nuts! :rolleyes:

  13. Germany For Work

    Hi Tyler, I am German and have only been in Ohio since last year. You can leave your Xbox here. Germany has 220 Volts, unless it is dual voltage of course, but then you will need an adapter for the plugs, as they are different. :-)

    Right now is still a good time to go. September still has wine fests going on, which are always a blast. German cities have Fussgaengerzonen "walkplatz" as Americans call it, which is a car free zone in the inner city, which are usually hosting all the fests throughout the cities. The clubs are usually great!

    Oh and by the way, Germans know how to party. None of that 1 day crap they do here in the US...lol... Christmas is 3 days, Fasching in 3 days, Easter is 2 days, FAirs are usually 4 or 5 days, Winefests last 3 days, etc...End of Sep Monschau has a big Fair going on.

    Try to see Trier...my hometown...Oldest City in Germany. Lots of Roman ruins and great wine! :-) it is about 2 hours from Monschau.

    Yes there are speedlimits, however the autobahns have great stretches with no speed limits...watch out for this sign "end of all restrictions"...but try not to kill yourself! lolpicture.php?albumid=697&pictureid=12409&thumb=1

  23. im confused as to why the doctors would do this...

    It all depends on availability and urgency. Sometimes lungs soaked in smoke for 30 years gives more time than someone with cystic fibrosis which is a pretty serious disease. I'm sure the situation is more complicated than it seems. The recipient should have been notified about the lung's condition regardless.

    exactly...who knows how bad she was and how desperate...maybe she had been waiting for years to get lungs...Pneumonia is an infectious disease and she could have died from it with perfectly good lungs, due to the medicine she was taking...immunity is lowered due to the meds a transplant recipient has to take to prevent the body from fighting the "intruder" organ making the patient vulnerable to infectious diseases...

    I think everyone could get upset if she died of lung cancer, but I think this is blown WAY out of proportion!!!
