    HD's point may be that it is far more efficient to mitigate 93% of the problem rather than taking the politically polarizing route of attacking 7%of the problem.
  2. I got a Garmin Zumo 590 for $600 this morning: https://www.amazon.com/Garmin-010-01232-01-Zumo-590LM/dp/B00JZSB7NW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468364868&sr=8-1&keywords=Zumo+590
  3. I am glad that you have this trip planned, and that you weren't planning to go with me. I tore my ACL in a freak dirt bike incident on Sunday. I won't be riding for a while. Safe travels!
  4. I hurt my knee at Perry over the weekend, so I cannot make it to this ride.
  5. Are you planning to ride 2 up on it occasionally, or will you ride the sport bike by yourself the entire time?
  6. I don't think that you can go wrong with either the Connie or FJR. They are both great bikes. Those were my two finalists. If you come down to IP to test out the FJR, you and the misses are more than welcome to take my Connie out for a ride.
  7. ^ what he said. Also, at Ohio State (not sure about other colleges), only 1 in 3 people initially entering the College of Engineering will graduate in engineering. According to their statement, most of the people will graduate with business degrees. The required upper level calculus and science classes are no joke. My masters degree is in business, and it was significantly easier than my engineering degree. If you are a mature and driven individual, very little in this world is unattainable. You just have to want it enough.
  8. Good luck! That test sucks! The most important point: Do something you love, and you will never work a day in your life. Engineering provides a nice quality of life. Just don't go into engineering for the chicks!
  9. Does anyone have any suggestions for a motorcycle specific GPS? I have been using my phone and a Garmin car GPS on the bike. The Garmin has been acting up. They don't tend to hold up well on a motorcycle.
  10. I haven't used them much. My video from the Epic Ride was choppy. I need to work on the settings of the Go Pro to make or smoother. I will mostly use them on the dirt bikes with the kids.
  11. It looks like WV10 and WV16 are open, so it looks like it will be a nice Friday afternoon.
  12. Also tagged for interest. As with everything in my life, subject to kids' schedules.
  13. Gary Johnson is on the ballot in all 50 states.
  14. Post up how the trip is going. I am planning on riding sr10 from Huntington to Bluefield area on Friday. I haven't looked up to see if any of these areas are affected by the flooding.
  15. How many times is the government entitlted to sales tax on the same item? Obviously, it was taxed when it was new.
  16. Check your owners manual. The tires maximum cold pressure may not be the same as your bike's optimum tire pressure. For example, my bike's optimum tire pressure is 42psi, but the sport bikes running the same tires run a much lower pressure.
  17. Originally, Canada, Vermont, and Adirondacks. We are getting together to discuss tomorrow evening. I can let you know if there are any changes.
  18. My brother and I are heading out for a week on 8/20. He switched from a cruiser to FJR, so you won't hear all of the floorboard scraping this time.
  19. They are very nice. The maintenance can also be expensive. I recently bought a trailer from someone that has one. It sounds really good, and they handle really well.
  20. That sucks. Connie has TPMS but no cruise control. FJR has cruise but no TPMS. I guess that is why the K1600 is so highly appreciated.
