  1. Thanks man, I'll look that over for sure This will be either Thursday or Friday morning, so I'm assuming it wont be too bad
  2. Think the wife and I will be doing this either Thursday or Friday as well. The other full day I'm planning on a 4 state run - 28 to Mountain Rest SC, then Chattooga Ridge Rd west to 76, pickup 19S at Blairsville to ride Blood Mtn, then 60/68/Cherohala/129 back
  3. Those that ride the BRP, do you typically run 28/74/19 to Soco Gap and pick it up from there? EDIT - Looking at the map again, we may as well take 441 to the start of it since 19 isn't far from
  4. Know how I know @Casper hates us all more than @Tonik? Because he only shows up for cancelled rides and Smokey Mtn buttsecks every year
  5. I wouldn't buy that one. Judging by the pics, it's had a rough life. The CBR250 or Ninja500 would serve you better for that price range.
  6. I ran Roadsmart 2s for street use on my ZX14 for years, but rarely got better than 4k out of them. Maybe the RS3s are better? The Angel GTs have been wonderful on my Sprint so far, and at about 4k miles they still look great and show little wear. I went standard spec on mine, SprintGT only weighs about 590 wet, so the A-spec may be even more tolerant. They've got an elliptical profile so there's more of a footprint on the highway, but tip in doesn't feel negatively affected to where I dislike them. I'd compare the tip in feel of a 55 profile Angel GT to a common 50 profile tire, so if you're a 55 or 60 fan just beware these wont feel quite as good...but they still perform excellent imo.
  7. Awesome turnout, wish we could've made it down there.
  8. Here's the best source I've found for covered bridges around Ohio is this site... https://www.coveredbridgemap.com/oh/
  9. I can see the value with solar if I'm going to be without a power source for weeks or more, but I usually rely on my bike/truck/powerpack for my phone and gps charging. But the solar pack would definitely be good for SHTF preparedness
  10. Da'fuq? Winter already?!
  11. @RidersDiscount, thanks Mike for the free din din! ...now I almost feel obligated to buy something else from him...almost...
  12. I dont listen, ask my wife Thanks man, pm inbound
  13. I'd like more of the decals if there's a source for these still.....free is good, but I'll pay if need be
  14. Wow....horrible news. Simply tragic - RIP Nicky and deepest condolences to the Hayden family
  15. Wow.....I be the pits were hoppin like crazy. Was it far enough in the race that they called it, or was there a restart after this?
  16. Yup. Our group could've easily T-boned that guy....poor old fella, but a stupid place to be. The slow group stopped and did him a solid by pushing that car UPHILL
  17. Where was 676 on the route? I dont see it on the route map, and definitely dont recall riding on 676 Or were you thinking 565?
  18. Home. Almost 500 miles logged. Had fun as usual. Good weather, didn't get a drop of rain other than the morning mist/fog that beaded up our visors on the way to McConnellsville. Always good to see the regulars again, catchup with a few I hadn't seen for a while, and met a few new guys. Weather didn't play spoiler today, so I'm glad the wife and I decided to roll the dice and go. See those of you going to the Gap in a few weeks!
  19. Just got to Groveport Shell station, be leaving here in about 10min
