  1. That corner is sneaky, especially for a noob riding a serious sportbike "and not familiar with" that panicked and target fixated. That is near my house by the way and that curve has messed with allot of people, especially if you are moving along at a good pace when approaching it.

    It's not too far from me, either...I hit it everyday when I was commuting to delaware for the last three months (thank god that's over for a while)....just a bit farther north of there on Red Bank, I was coming back from Delaware and entering a left hander. Yuppie in spandex riding a $10k bike oncoming and the blue SUV behind him swings wide (of course, road bikes are 10' wide) into my lane and we were going head on, mid corner. Second time in less than a week for me to prove the ST4's off road worthiness. I might start sticking to the freeways (as long as I can get on them safely in the direction I need to go)

    There's a lot of bicyclists out on the country roads north and east of n'albany/westerville.

  2. Love mine, although it is DA/SA. I was hoping you were selling one lol, although I am supposed to be saving money.

    Oh kawi will be here and say glock, glock, buy a glock. Did I mention glock FWIW.

    Chevy will be along and mention S&W M&P

    More guys will say glock, m&p, glock, m&p, etc

    Sorry, it's DA/SA - didn't mean to imply it was DAO...I was stating my preference for DA/SA and why I didn't want DAO.

    Baccus I saw your Sig today. It's waiting for you.

    :D:D:D:D

  3. http://shop.retrevo.com/m/s/LG-50PT350-TVs-review-manual/id/23899bh731/t/1-2/

    603+ $5 shipping = $608

    Target sells it for $ 749, but most other places sell it cheaper.

    Not saying $600 isn't a good price, but for private sell with no warranty option(5 years for $80bucks is worth it, trust me lol) it may be wise to drop the price some, but thats your call.

    If you were selling a 65in+ I'd be interested, need a new TV for the bedroom.

    Your mom will allow that? <I keed I keed>

  4. This man knows how to party. I got intubed last time he was at my house, he then started a continuous pour of Bud Light. Fastest chug I've ever done. The next morning (after we were done spooning of course) he hooked me up with a IV and my hangover was gone in less than an hour. It was an adventure for the ages.

    Rep to you, Sir!

  5. Preferably 04-05....ready to make my "bike (mostly) in a box" in to a roller this weekend. Anybody want to come by N'Albany on Sunday, drink my beer and show me where stuff should go?:bow::bow:

  6. Glad your OK. But I would have maintained my lane (yes its easy saying this rather than actually doing it) .

    But if you got hurt by riding in the grass-your liable

    If you stayed in your lane a d he hit you, he's at fault.

    I had a better chance of staying alive in the grass.

    He knew I was there, and was pissed about the sportbikes that had just ran across his nose...doubt a louder horn would have had an effect.

  7. Nothing wrong with a little adventure

    If my bike were an advtourer, I would agree.

    Glad your ok

    Thanks

    That is crazy! I am glad you are ok! What exactly happened? Did a car run you off the road?

    Got forced onto the southbound 270 entrance from Broad and then forced to the berm where it got interesting. I was doing ok until I was into the marbles, then I tunnel visioned...suddenly, I'm bouncing along parralel to the road, but about 10' removed from it at 60mph:eek::eek::eek:...guy was probably a bit upset about 3 bikes coming across his bow and I took the brunt of his anger.:nono::nono::nono:

  8. Found a better paying gig at Ohio health. Nuf said. No but really its a decent company. Just like most companies though you move up positions but your pay is almost always considered lateral. So more responsibility with a shinny new title but no money to show for it. If compensation was more in my range I would stay. I have been here for 6 years. But when another company offers you 20K more than your making it is not so hard to say goodbye.

    Downtown? At 180 E Broad (haedquarters) or Grant Medical? I'm in IT and normally at Riverside.

  9. Nice meeting up with some of you tonight at Wings and Rings.

    Leaving, we were going to ride to QS&L (ask Yota) and going to 270N I got forced to other direction, tunneled over to the grass and decided to prove to Pauly an ST4 is a multi-tool, too. I figured I was about 10' off the berm, riding it out at 60mph. Made it back on road, pulled over after the ramp and had a smoke. One of the guys tonight (on a beemer - missed you name - I was distracted) saw my off road excursion and stopped to make sure my pants were clean. Casper came along a minute later. We checked out the bike, pulled the grass off it, and parted ways.

    Never thought I'd enduro an ST4.
