Dang. Not the brand I’m looking at.

What dealer do you work at?

Last new bike I bought, I walked in, said I want to test ride this. They said ok, got it prepped, I rode it, I bought it. I’ve never bought a bike without riding it first. I wouldn’t buy a car without driving it first, and a bike is much more important to get right.

I wouldn’t let you test ride a bike either.

Was just told by a local dealer I couldn’t test ride a motorcycle. First time I’ve tried to buy a bike from said dealer, and first time I’ve ever been told I couldn’t test ride. Is this common?

Somebody must’ve hit the second. Both were dead when we got to them.

Two of them. Monsters.

Home. Awesome ride.

I’m going to give you the world’s biggest hug tomorrow. I may even kiss your neck.

@DerekClouser wish you were here.

The shack misses you. The area wildlife do not.

That sucks man. Hope all is ok. See ya tomorrow.

You know how it is down here. No pills, no game. ?

Anyone that feels like braving the weather tomorrow or just coming down to drink/fish, send me or @marlboro man a PM.

I’m here.....

You’ll have a ball on the Tiger. I wouldn’t worry about that at all. I’d expect a few cruisers, ADV bikes, etc. We break up into groups based on pace. It’s a blast.

That's why I'm heading down tonight and plan on riding all day if doesn't storm like crazy.

Okay, I think I have it figured out. We have always had it set to unread content in the past 365 days. I've had to prune this occasionally for folks, but never a huge deal. Seems something changed with the way the site generates the queries. Supposedly this was an improvement, however the query optimizer was choosing a different path for many people causing 30s query times to find very few records. I've changed the default to search only the past 90 days for unread posts. It seems to be blazing fast now. Let me know if you all are still seeing slow load times of the "What's New" tab.

You could try marking site as read. Downside of course is that everything will be marked as read.

That was me hitting the button up top on the menu.

@marlboro man says sure no problem.

Here’s a screen recording of how it appears for me. ED049B7F-1356-4AB4-A6E0-A2F1D28B110A.MP4

It’s @marlboro man‘s shack. How big is it?

Odd. Did you get everything sorted?

That’s a new issue. Huh. As for new content load times, that’s the page I have bookmarked. Loads in 2-3 seconds every time for me. I’ll be updating the search to use Elasticsearch soon, so that’ll probably help everyone. New content is just a search.
