Many will vouch ToniC is mentally handicapped.

I'm in, like always I will consider riding the MC and it will be drizzling or cold and I'll wimp out and drive the car. Thanks for having us derelicts over!

ummm, you know you can buy a pair of cheap voice activated walkie talkies to use. Clip on belt and ride. Strong batteries and good range too. They were something I considered but never bought.

edit: let me make that a bit clearer. You want walkie talkies that use a head set plugged in, and are voice activated. Cobra units do that, I think many do. Would have to find a headset setup that works well with the helmets.

You are correct if you want limited communication. The Sena and other manufacturers include the versatility of listening to music, skipping songs, taking phone calls, increasing and decreasing volume all with your gloves on a helmet device.  

I have had Sena 10 and 20's for (10) years and used the simple basic pairing mode. We are going on a (5) day ride with (14) riders with  ten of using Sena's. Been in Florida the last few days and we dialed in the Sena 20 communication systems. What we have found is the simple bluetooth system works easily with two or three people. Using the Sena app with the group intercom works with up to (10) people, with the limitation of a few hundred feet distance like the basic bluetooth. Using the Sena Ride Connected app and cell phones you can have a very large group of riders and the distance is worldwide. After a couple of days of adjusting the settings we were riding at 80 miles an hour with crystal clear communication and we were 50 miles apart. We finally educated ourselves with some of the features of the Sena communication systems.     

I have the Alpine Star GPX and like them, but they no longer make them, I believe they were replaced by the Alpine Star GP Air ($130). Nice features like touch tech for using a phone screen without taking off your gloves.    

Welcome aboard, lots of people on the OR who are motorcycle enthusiasts. We have some great ride routes down to SEO during the riding season.  

I am going to Motogp in Austin and wanted to see if anyone else is going this year. Maybe we could meet up. 

We are planning to have an Ohio Riders NEO dinner on Thursday March 28th @ 7:00PM at the Oak Barrel. Please let us know if you plan to attend to allow us to make reservations. Below is a link to the Oak Barrel website. The address is: 5975 Canal Rd, Valley View, OH 44125.

Great to see everyone last night, so nice of Brian to let us use Skidmark. Derek, thanks for bring the refreshments! It is such a cool place and he is working on such a good cause for the kids. I plan to make the Skidmark after party the first day of the Cleveland motorcycle show on Friday January 25th. Pauly, thanks for the nice words, you always have way with them. I have always had a passion for motorcycles and always enjoyed people who are motorcycle enthusiast's, I really like getting the OR knuckleheads together. Plan to set up another one or two OR NEO dinners over the winter.

Ohio Riders NEO dinner on Thursday December 27th @ 7:00PM at Skidmark Garage.

I have a table in my basement, haven't played for years. I almost majored in Foosball during college.  

Your tax dollars at work!

We are planning to have an Ohio Riders NEO dinner on Thursday December 27th @ 7:00PM at Skidmark Garage. We would like to thank Brian at Skidmark Garage for opening his place for our get together. Please let us know if you plan to attend to allow us to calculate the amount of food and refreshments. 

That is COOL! Congrats!!!

That's great news, hope your passion for riding returns!

Welcome aboard! The deals on used bikes are amazing, bikes devalue so quickly, it's great for new riders.

Marketing students I’m sure. 

Probably a senior level marketing class with sponsorship from AD Farrow research.

That would be Duc tape or Ducati tape!

Two months ago I got stopped by the Policia doing 110 MPH on a toll road in Mexico, I negotiated with the cop down to 1000 pesos ($52) from 1500 pesos on the side of the road. I know the locals only bribe the Policia 500 pesos or less, but I'm a Gringo! Wonder if I'll get points on my Ohio license... LOL, so corrupt in Mexico!
