I apologize for being 'That guy', but wow, that was so amazingly misspelled. Autocorrect must hate you!

You departing at noon? ( Just asking to be sure)

If so I might go with you.

18 ring isn't that big. Your lady friends deserve better. 

My fingers are already thicker than your manhood. She is fine.

Omw. Should be before 8:30

Daaaaaang. 

How about hat size? Or helmet size? Ever feel like the boot size or helmet size getting bigger even after like 20+ age? 

Umm, helmet is a hjc 4x. 

As for change, pretty much been the same since I was 21 or so.

16????? Holy xxxx.......How tall are you?

6'1", I'm tall but not crazy tall...

Just have thick bones, I also wear a size 18 ring.

Got the triumph back. Wow, what a difference! About 1/3 of the engine is new and it sounds awesome!

Also got some size 16 boots from RD. Sigh, too small. I hate my big feet. Will arrange RMA on Monday.

Going to try for bolivar, but, I might oversleep. 

I swear by the custom molded ones my audiologist had made for me.

Damn it!  Plus, I hate fringe...  

Fingers crossed that this deal falls through.  I read that Ducati is actually under Audi ownership, which is still the VW conglomerate, so is dieselgate the real reason their selling??  

Might be. VW needs money. And Ducati is almost certainly worth more now than when purchased.

Shoei helmets. Do you have any of these and what are your thoughts about them?

GT-Air

RF-1200

RF-SR

My HJC FG-17 is killing me. The NOISE! (Also, it used to kill my forehead, so I'm thinking the shape isn't a perfect match.) I know wind noise is a complex interaction of turbulence, position, bike structure...but I'm wondering if a more expensive helmet may help /enough/ to keep me riding. I do wear foam ear plugs, but my ears are ringing just sitting here. The noise comes from the base of the helmet, maybe more towards the back. I like to be leaned forward a little, rarely tuck, never fully upright. And I plan to move to NC, so heat might be a factor, but noise is a deal breaker. I've tried a Windjammer II which just doesn't work for me. Wearing a neck gaiter does help, but it's summer! As it is now, I can only imagine short rides and/or not exceeding 50mph. This is no way to live!

Allow me to recommend quality earplugs. Not the cheap foam ones. Go see an audiologist and get them made for you. World of difference. 

Finalized trading my travel trailer for a toy hauler. So I can bring both cycles and camp. (Also, not tear chest cartilage.)

So, though the Aprilia is awesome, it's not really right for me.

I think I want a Connie or a feej or something Sport-Touring in that area? Something 3 cylinders or above.

I will include my first-gear 25l duffle for the back. 

Depending on the deal I would throw cash on it.

I will throw up some pictures soon.

Thanks durk! Is this the actual cycle? 

I mean if it is the feej of @NinjaDoc, then I of course will buy it. I mean think of the infamy of this cycle.

I lost a legitimate 4 lbs on this trip (7 before I rehydrated), even with all the beer I drank.

I made/brought most of the food I ate, and I generally don't stop to eat when I'm riding.  Also, 10 hrs a day on those demanding roads burns a shit ton of calories.

Congrats on the weight loss!

Just throwing this out there...

Dibs on the feej. (If you sell it)

Sounds good.  Another 3 or 4 day in late July or August would be excellent.

I too like this idea!

In Kentucky now, heading for Columbus. Probably stop somewhere on the way. Don't need to be in town until Tuesday. 

To everyone on the ride, you were awesome. 

@Tonik, @Killer_kaw, @Casper, @OsuMj, @snot, @Hellmutt, @2talltim and @Danimal you were all especially awesome to hang with.

Andy was too, but I can't remember his handle!

@Danimal just rode by the store. Looking lost.

PS. Yes I am bored. 

Anyone feel like doing dinner tonight?

Just got back from a couple passes on Deals Gap and lunch at the gap store. @what and I are at the cabin and @2talltim went to Wheeler's for a rear tire.

Stopped by the cabin, knocked, no answer. Going to hang out at the store for a while. Call or stop by or something.

In Robbinsville. Doing some shopping then heading back to Fontana.

Going to sit at the wild grill restaurant for 15-20 minutes then head out for a ride if no one is around.  Text me, call, show up.

Since the restaurant is closed, and there is no net down at the campgrounds. If anyone is going riding tomorrow (Thursday) come grab me? Spot 3 in the campgrounds.
