I've lived in the Dayton area for 26 years (most of my life) and have never seen nor heard about any of this. But then, I'm public-school edumacated. 'nuff said. Orrrrr, maybe I'm just not one of the enlightened ones....

Okay, so in light of that confusion (who was to post the next tag), I hope I didn't go to the tag site for nothing. What an INCREDIBLE day for a ride! Will post the next tag tomorrow (Sun). If anyone has an issue with me posting the next tag, speak up (again, due to the confusion). Jeff

I'm not seeing a photo of Jimsters bike in front of the Armed Forces mural. Granted, its immediately to the left of the Motorcycle Club mural, so we know he was there, but rules is rules.

GSXR tail, R6/ CBR upper... Still beautiful. Still expensive.

Great place. Note the next section, to the right in this photo.

Hey, at least Mark is eager!

Thank you! Its been killing me all week that nobody got this tag. I wanted to get it, but couldn't make it out there between 9a and 5p (Air Force museum, right????).

They needed a bike short enough for Cruise to (almost) be flat-footed on.... Almost.

Its a giant fake horseshoe crab in Blanchester. http://www.roadsideamerica.com/tip/12731 No idea it could hold 60 people. Would like to see that... Jeff

All, How about the "finder" of a tag posting the location, after they've found it and posted the find? I'd like to know where some of these things are. Dustin, where was the Hobart find? Thx Jeff

Awwww man, I was hoping you'd keep it down here, somewhere near the crab....

Hmmmm, trying to think of interesting spots around Blan. This was a great choice.

Deer was already down, right? Not sure why it would be, but not sure...

John, So whats the solution?

I'd talk to the owner or GM (preferably the owner). Or the first salesman. Not sure what scoot you're shopping for, but you may try Yamaha of Troy/ Southside in Dayton. Talk to Tim in sales. 937-294-1577. May be worth the drive. Jeff

It could have just as easily been the main church itself, or a house, or a tree. I'm guessing that the steel framework would make a great antenna. I live about 15 minutes from this. Its made national news today. My brother em'ed me from Houston (TX, not OH) this morning with the news... How ironic, though, that the Hustler Hollywood sign down the street is untouched. I'm a faithful Christian, and not reading anything at all in to this. Its just one of those things. I DO have a hard time believing that it cost $500k. Thats crazy. Maybe that was for the pond and everything. I would think they'll rebuild. FWIW, I've never attended that church, but know people who have, and they like it. Its gotten some of them through some hard times. I may not (or may) agree with their doctrine or practice, but if they're legitimately helping people and bringing them to Christ, that can't be a bad thing in my eyes. Jeff

We ziplined there about three weeks ago. Great time. We had good guides (sorry, don't remember their names. Two guys in their mid-20's). Have heard great things about the Fort Ancient ziplines as well, and they're only about 20 minutes from me (vs. 2.5 hours for Hocking Hills). Wished I'd taken my golf clubs along to HH. Nice little course... Jeff, Lebanon

>>i see how it is you just wanted to have a sausage fest..<<:lol::lol::lol:

Next Fri and Sat, June 18 and 19. CCM is at the intersection of Rt 68 and I-71, between Xenia and Wilmington. North of Cinti, S. of Columbus. Sorry, no idea what exit #. Hog roast on Sat, as well. I'm not affiliated with them, but was in there yesterday (had to stop in as I was passing-by, right??).

Want to get a baseline for my Honda. I know that Aces & Eights HD near PKI has a dyno. They said its available for any bike. Any other options around here, though? Thanks Jeff

Okay, small chance, but can anyone offer insight? Scoured the web for forums and such for these bikes, didn't find anything helpful. Kickstand switch has been removed, and the wires connected. QUestion: Three wires down there. Two green, and a yellow w/ a stripe. The greens are connected, but yellow is not. Should it be? Can't tell if it used to be bundled in the crimper with the greens or not, but length indicates that it could've been. Can't get the thing started....or even to turn over. Thx Jeff

Couple things: We live near a large Marathon distribution center (big white tanks above ground and all that) in Lebanon. We see all of the tanker trucks coming and going, and they are from a multitude of companies, not just Marathon. I've heard that it "all comes up in the same pipeline, but some companies add a little of this or a little of that to their particular taste". Dunno, I'm not a fuel guy. Secondly, I've had great luck with Marathon fuel (completely unrelated to being near the depot. There's a Marathon about a mile from the depot, on 122, that charges the same as everyone else). We used BP for years, religiously. I switched to Marathon exclusively, and my work car (Mazda 3) went from 25 mpg religiously to 27-28mpg. Same driving, nothing else changed. I think that as long as you're buying from a station that has a reasonable amount of business, the fuel in their tanks is getting rotated enough that it shouldn't be an issue. A mom and pop shop out in the holler may give you problems, but when you're out there, you're probably out of options anyhoo. I don't like buying race fuel at the beginning of the season because in my mind, its been sitting in the tank collecting moisture all winter.

See? Who says Obama can't accomplish anything? Technically qualified for the position (maybe), but experience-wise, uhhhhmmmm, nope. He doesn't have a clue. He can dictate, but seems unable to problem-solve or make a decision. Clueless like Carter, but trying (and unable) to let polling dictate, like Clinton. I "hope" we survive this "change".

THAT is a great design. I've looked all over the web (I'm not very creative on my own. Too left-brained, and not even much of that...), and haven't seen anything Texas-related that I like as much as that. Very cool. Kudos. Jeff
