It was nice to take a ride, today after work.
The ol' Thunderhorse fired right up.

Very cool.

I looked through gobs of images for that chock. I'm glad it
finally surfaced.
The stand is a Baxley LA model front chock with Triumph logo's added to it.
This fully adjustable motorcycle chock holds any motorcycle upright for transport,service or storage.These are two versions of the same chock and are mechanically identical. The only difference is the footprint - the LA Trailer Chock has a slightly smaller footprint which allows it to be placed in closer proximity to walls or the front of a trailer.
These chocks are incredibly well made, with stainsless steel shoes and durable black crinkle powercoat. You will get a lifetime of excellent service from these excellent motorcycleLA CHOCK OR LA TRAILER CHOCK $259 - SHIPPING FLAT RATE $30

Here Jack, get down and get worldly.....or Google some more!

Big smiles here.....
That was an interesting read. I didn't know Amish teens
did those things against their upbringing. I would have
thought that they were more inclined to avoid those kinds
of activities. I also viewed Amish girls as being pure as
the driven snow until they were married. Guess it's not
as I thought after all.
How long does a community allow a young person to
practice Rumspringa before they are shunned? The
story suggests that some in their twenties are still not
members of the church. How does the community treat
them? Could one go off and return years later, and then
go back to Amish life?

I've had low water pressure the entire time I've moved into my house.
I'm looking at getting a Kenetico water softner and I'm afraid I won't
have any pressure when it regenerates.
I've checked my pressure tank and adjusted it. I raised my switch
pressure to 40-60. The Kenetico rep checked the water pressure
(at 30psi running pressure) showed 4gpm. Would this be my
pressure tank itself or would it be the well pump?
I'm guessing that 30 psi running pressure means that the
pump is running at that point. That sounds very good.
I'm also guessing that there is a check valve (back flow
preventer) between the the pump and the tank. It could
be leaky and allowing you to lose pressure in the system.
It should also cause your pump to kick on more often than
necessary in order to keep the system pressurized.
That's my 2¢ worth, today for free.

Glad you all had fun since I am in logan
I would have tagged along but I had a
chain failure on Saturday so bike is down
for a bit.
I get down there three or four times a
season. If I could post up farther ahead
of time maybe more people could plan
to join in.

Wear it? Yes. Buy it at that price?

I just walked into the house. Made a stop at Buckeye Lake
to watch the boats being put into and taken out of the water.
The wind made it difficult to load a boat, so I helped a few
people.
Also, I stopped at the Jacktown Pub for a rib dinner. If you
go there, don't get the ribs. They were delivered cold and
I had to send them back.
The bike is fueled up and SeaFoam has been added to the
tank. I also lubed up the chain for the winter. It's ready to
go when spring gets here, or it's ready now for another nice
riding day.
It was good to ride with you again, Dave. That Muskie Bucket
was interesting. Maybe one time we can actually make it to
the other side of Marietta for some new twisty roads.

Leaving Newark at 0900. Looks like a great day to ride.
.
-
..maybe some roads like, 550 - 26 - 260 - 255 - 800 - and then 78 back to 33.
If we're going over that far, I want to ride the 556.
I'd like to be back in Newark by 6pm.

I'm in! Was considering a long-ish ride at a reasonable medium pace.
It's fall and a workday so don't know what we'll find out on the roads.
I can be in Logan around 9:30am or earlier. Then maybe some roads like,
550 - 26 - 260 - 255 - 800 - and then 78 back to 33. Too ambitious?
That looks like a good plan. I'm leaving Newark at 9:00. I should
be in Logan by 10:00.
For anyone else wishing they could join in, it looks like the perfect
day to call off sick. This may be the last nice riding day of the year
and if you miss it, you will feel sick for sure.

Monday's weather for Logan, Ohio...
Monday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 77. Light southeast wind becoming south 5 to 10 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 22 mph.

Monday's forecast for Logan, Ohio is 74 and mostly sunny.

Working weekends means it's hard to make a weekend ride. But I have Monday
off and Monday's forecast is looking pretty good to ride through southeast Ohio.
Can you make it? We can meet in Logan, Ohio and ride the Epic Ride route.
This is a great chance for anyone who couldn't make the spring or fall rides due
to having to work weekends. I'd like to leave early enough to squeeze in a trip to
the Big Muskie Bucket, about 10 miles past McConnelsville.
Kickstands up: 10 am unless someone chimes in and makes a request.
Route is also subject to suggestions. No worries.
We'll meet at the Hocking Mall Shopping Center.
The route: http://goo.gl/maps/ZnwBZ

The way I understand it is that California has
two seasons. Fire and Mud.

Very nice, Aaron. One of those drawers is a
pizza dispenser, isn't it?

I'm never comfortable leaving my helmet
with my bike.

I think we already covered that: Saipan.
There are always more stories.

I can get rid of STD's but not you dumb fucks
I came down to Dallas to get my flight instructor ratings back in Febuary.
While in training I got an internship at a corporate flight simulator company
acting as a supporting crew member (First officer or right seater as you will)
in a Lear 35. Once I started running out of money I got a job as a flight
instructor teaching people to fly (be afraid, be very afraid) while finishing up
the internship. Today marks the 1 year annaversry of getting back from Siapan
and I am happy to report that I start the initail class training to get my Pilot In
Command (PIC) type rating in the Lear 35. I am hoping to get a job working
for a med ecav company in Florida and finally make some real money.
Hey, I don't know you. But, I'm beginning to wish I did. Flying has
always been fascinating to me and I admire you for it. It's something
that I never had the $$$'s to get into, and I understand it's very
costly to practice general aviation on your own dime.
One day we'll meet, and you can tell me some flying stories, like
when you were afraid or worried you were not going to get a plane
back on the ground without breaking it.

I bought a hi-vis rain jacket, because if it is raining hard
enough that I need to wear it, other vehicles may have
difficulty seeing me through the all the water on their
windows. Other than that, I'm not a high-vis
fan just for everday riding. It's not my thing.

I would also consider some solar applications
for heating and cooling.

Funny picture thread.

The force and heat of the thrust would likely blow everything off
the surface and leave it nice and dry, as well.
