  1. I've seen a black vette around here before. Doesn't ring any bells with me in particular and I seem to attract assholes on the road. Wonder what the other person was driving? That's like two miles down the road from my house. And I can testify that there's some serious douchbags in the area...
  2. About a year ago I bought my first pair of Bates Sport Tacticals. They are awesome. Lightweight, good ankle support, good ventilation, and an aggressive tread that still looks good enough for business casual wear. Got them on line from Shoebuy. I wear them at least two days a week and they hardly show any wear after a year. Around $80. Here's a link http://tacticalgear.com/mens-bates-5-tactical-sport?sid=1:653:0,5:1742:0,16:5129:0&utm_source=gs&utm_medium=sce&gclid=COmE-uGZ260CFYW8KgodZlaflw
  3. The compact in .40 has been on my wish list for awhile. My birthday is a week from tomorrow - maybe wifey has been listening to my "hints"? :-)
  4. Looks to me like you order it on line and pick it up at the store. No charge for shipping that way. Hell, for 20 bucks you get a set each metric and standard.
  5. Stepson came over and took out his Kawi today... So without a bike, I'm reduced to bike storage.
  6. I just saw a commercial for these on "Best Defense" the other night. I like the way the laser switch works from either side. And the whole weapon looks well made for carry; nicely streamlined.
  7. Dammit. I was hoping no one would catch that...
  8. I rode to work last winter when it was 28... But it wasn't at night and it wasn't snowing! Oh, and at least I had the sense to wear a helmet.
  9. That's been my observation. It's like church, crowded at Christmas and Easter.
  10. This person pulled into the Speedway I stopped at last night. And I was worried about the roads in my 4x4.
  11. Can't handle the one I've got now. (just in case she gets on here and reads this thread)
  12. My resolution right now is to get more than 30 freakin posts so I can post in the Bike Shop. Time to graduate from lurker to poster, I guess...
  13. Welcome wolves... free sheep inside. And by the way, I meant that I added to MY favorites bar on my pc...
  14. Nice deal on the nanovault. Just catching up with this website, thanks! Put it on the favorites bar.
  15. Well, admittedly I've never ridden a "sport" bike. First bike was the enduro, then a couple cruiser style Zuk's... I was thinking along the lines of a Buell. Or maybe an SV650. Love that V twin sound. Or, I don't know for sure. I don't want to spend over 3000 for whatever I get. And it would be predominately a commuter bike with the option to "take the long, twisty way home".
  16. That would be cool... it's bad enough that my password keeper has 73 entries. And by the way, this site has the best collection of smilies I've ever seen. Not sure when I'd EVER get to use some of them...
  17. "John G. raped and murdered my wife. " It wasn't me. It was somebody who looked like me. And I certainly hope I know you and we're having a funny moment...
  18. Thanks! And for my first "nube" question, what's LBTS mean?
  19. Well, maybe not that much of either. But I've been visiting off and on for quite a while. Got back into motorcycling in 2004 with an 83 GS550L that I picked up in Kentucky. Since that bike didn't make me enough of an MC mechanic, I bought a 79 GS850G a couple years later. Anyway, sold both bikes last year and haven't been able to get riding off my mind since. Then, the stepson picked up an 04 Ninja 636 and I'm back at wanting something to ride BAD. So, go easy on this nube... I used to hang out on the GSresources, but my screen name from there wasn't available here. (hntnfsh must belong to someone?) See ya round!
