    BMW motorcycle

    Just as a point of reference that BMW GS’s are heavy off road behemoths, I’ve gone: BMW R1150GS -> Kawa KLR650GS -> Yama TW200. BMW GSs are good touring (read: road) bikes, but a substantial handful off road. Depends what your plans are.

    <NA> Motorcycle photo thread

    Well, I guess if my four years of undergraduate and nine years of postgraduate university association wasn’t enough to indoctrinate me into the “identity/common cause” then nothing is likely to do so. Besides, we all have to admit that college spectator sports is nothing more than a fund...

    <NA> Motorcycle photo thread

    I have to use this handy little guide to help me figure out what the hell sports followers are talking about: I also just cannot fathom the dedication and fascination that many ‘Mericans have to their Alma Maters sports teams decades after leaving that school.

    <NA> Motorcycle photo thread

    Just last week took ownership of my own ‘06 T-Dub……puttering indeed, but raucous fun off road! Got tired of riding motos that I couldn’t easily pick up.

    <NA> Motorcycle photo thread

    I took a tired, long in storage ‘81 Moto Guzzi V50 III, stripped it down and cafe’d it into this. It’s now too cramped for my old joints. Recently offered it for listing on Bring A Trailer (hoping, of course, to get BaT bids, HA)….but they weren’t interested. Oh well, guess I’ll have to deal...

    Apple Watch

    Not on an Apple (I detest square watches) but my Garmin Vivoactive 4S watch has a METAR/TAF app that is actually quite useful.

    Trip along East coast US - Suggestions to land with chopper

    KCDK on the Gulf Coast of FL has plenty of eating and lodging possibilities………but PLEASE keep your distance from the airplane tie downs, I’m tired of getting my plane sandblasted by thoughtless roto pilots. (and yes this IS directed at other roto pilots inbound to Cedar Key).

    Non alcoholic beer.....

    Athletic Brewing Company makes only non-alcoholic beers, and their IPAs are actually quite good. I enjoy flying into KCDK, having a NA beer with lunch on the deck, then flying back to X60 to hangar up. NA beers do have their place and time.

    My love / hate feelings for locked threads...

    Touched a juvenile nerve did I? We were, in this thread, discussing the sometimes fine line of IBTL, not climate change. I can see you don’t understand where we are here.

    My love / hate feelings for locked threads...

    I’ve been toying with the idea of necroposting to an old thread (or three) about Climate Change……how long before that’ll get locked?…..or will it ignite a discussion on this thread leading to lock?…..or have all the deniers gone to hide somewhere?….getting close yet?….
