  1. Kissel is an excellent instructor with a broad background of training and experience. I did not take his CCW course but have otherwise trained under him. My Wife is doing his CCW course this weekend.
  2. Still have my doubts about turkey "bacon". Might have to give it a try. Don't see how it'd have enough juice in which to fry your eggs? Would it be g-t-g to puree and slather on cubed/skewered chicken for the grill? I guess if your religion (and maybe Dr.) prohibits pork...
  3. Sounds like something my Wife would try to argue...Of course, she's a vegeterian. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdbZEXfPwmg&feature=related
  4. Buy it cheap, stack it deep fellas. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-202_162-57519703/global-bacon-shortage-unavoidable-group-says/
  5. Gave the first session the finger after sliding around the first 4 laps...went back to pit to drink more coffee. Grip got much better after that. Rolled through hot-pit more times today than I think I ever have. Got in one cluster this afternoon that ended up 7 or 8 riders going 3-lines-wide through Turn One (felt like rush hour traffic for a few seconds). Very few crashes, though, and a good day all-in-all.
  6. Heading that way Monday a.m...!
  7. Thanks for the input Shadyone: Yeah, it's probably more of a haul to get here than it's worth. Have never bothered doing anything with sealing and/or power-washing...Which is most probably why we have some degradation. We have what looks like a void beneath the concrete might have given way where a rear tire of my truck usually ends up, and a section at the junction of the driveway and the street has broken into several large chunks. And of course, just on front of the garage door where it does freeze/thaw more frequently than any other part of the driveway it has disintegrated into gravel. It looks like that may have already been repaired once before We have rarely treated the driveway with any type of de-icer or salt (except for the steps...) Oddly enough, most of this happened during/after a winter in which I don't recollect having any snow even stick to the pavement. cmh_sprint: Thanks, I'll shoot tbutera2112 a pm...
  8. Stamp was just under 6 months.
  9. Anyone have any recommendations for a person/business in the Columbus area that does concrete patches/repairs? Concrete is decomposing in a couple spots in my driveway and I'd like to get it fixed before too long.
  10. Planning on the 18th unless Monday looks better weather-wise.
  11. New upper showed up yesterday...! DD MK18 RIS II 10.3" Hafta wait until the weekend to run it, though.

    MK17.5

    From the album: Stuff

  13. I stopped over some time mid-afternoon, but it looked like you had packed it in. Since the last time any of the settings were touched (3 years ago?) the forks' internals had been replaced/upgraded, the shock upgraded, and both myself and the bike have been lightened. Just hadn't been able to have the extra hands and knowledge all together at once to do anything about it. I had no idea how far off it was. Making just those adjustments definitely made a noticeable difference in handling...Of course, some bad habits became apparent where I was used to the stiff set-up. After getting past that it was great. If anyone hasn't gotten their baseline settings checked, definitely find a way to do it. Will definitely cross w/ Reuben over the winter and talk springs.
  14. This could be your big chance..! And, by the way--Yes. Yes it does. He knows...Mentioned it to him yesterday. Maybe selling bodily fluids? Would be nice to keep this in the family
  15. Oh, and if I get the chance, I will still be riding this until it sells or I change my mind...
  16. Here's a shot w/ the luggage (it can be reversed on the rack to allow for a passenger):
  17. 1000cc (996cc) 60-degree V-Twin, clear title in-hand. Titled as a 2007, but the vin. is post mid-year upgrade (larger intake valves, front-brake upgrade, cosmetics, etc.) Originally set-up and titled in 2008 at AF1 Racing (THE place for aprilia in the ‘States) in New Braunfels, Texas. Forged aluminum wheels Öhlins suspension front and rear Carbon fiber fender, belly pan, hugger and other bits Akrapovic titanium/carbon hexagonal slip-ons w/ removable baffles (well...installable baffles) ECU switched to “Map 2” 15t front sprocket aprilia accessories alarm clear /Euro lenses on turn-signals and brake light. aprilia frame-sliders Ventura rack/tail luggage You will also get the stock exhaust, fr. sprocket, lenses, and red pilot and pillion seats. Only 4600miles. Never down, never tracked. I am the second owner--bought it less than 2-years ago with only 2250 (mostly highway) miles on the clock. Health problems last year and schedule this year have kept me from riding anywhere near as much as I would like. Not really excited about selling, but this has dropped on my current priority list, so…
  18. Very cool. My can is sitting with Dale. Hopefully that stamp is not far behind. Read that wait times have been improving since June...
