+1 on the throttlemeister

I will be drinking a few bud lights this evening. They will follow a 5 mile jog. You gotta rehydrate with something.

The PR4s are a nice tire. The are good in wet weather. They seem to have good longevity (still on my first pair). They are plenty sticky in the twisties. I will be getting them again. I have not ridden the Angels.

Ding, ding, ding...... We have a winner!

This is certainly the place to meet some distinguished gentlemen.

Rule 1 of marriage: If you don't like the way they cook, do the cooking yourself. If not, shut up! In our house, the bitch does all the cooking. After I cook, I usually help with the cleaning.

What is the mix of people that ride down vs trailer down? When do most people head down? I have wanted to go on this trip for the last couple of years. Next year is looking like a good possibility.

I hate to be a buzz-kill, but you really ought to check out the Sena or other in helmet BT systems. Navigation, cell phone, and music wirelessly. I can change my playlist with a voice command, then verbally send my wife a text message that I am running late. I never need to slow down or pull off the road. Congrats on the BT ear buds. As the opportunity presents itself, you should check out the in-helmet BT systems. After you use them a couple times, there is no going back.

Got mine today also. So, who's up for the butt burner or butt burner gold?

Any photos or price on the tire changer?

Nice scoot.

I know what I want for Father's Day next year, but it will probably not be in the budget. This is an interesting idea. I wouldn't care of it is Apple or Android based... http://www.engadget.com/2014/08/11/skully-helmet-pre-order/

Also, get some good safety gear. Dress for the crash, don't dress for the ride. Get the best that you can afford. It is worth every penny.

Hello

Ryan, you really should open up your options and try some different rides.

If you add 2 of my 3 kids ages together, I could get to 10. I take them around on the Connie, but I would feel safer taking them around on a Wing with arm rests. A wing would also make riding with cruisers (everyone in my family) more enjoyable. The Connie can smoke any cruise without getting into 4th gear. As for the Connie, it isn't going anywhere. I still have half of the feeler on my right foot peg left to grind off before I could let her go. There is never a good excuse to do a half ass job.

Free and cold always works for me. I am no liquor snob. I do have some strong beer preferences, but you can't go wrong with free and cold.

Jameson is good for the Irish peeps.

I also have had very bad experiences with Hinderer. Of all the shops listed above, do anyone of them perform plug patches?

I am seriously thinking of getting a Wing, so that I can feel safer riding with my kids on back.

First! IBA no. 58538. Thanks for putting this together Tonik!
