General Banter / Tim Solien's son
« on: February 10, 2012, 04:10:36 PM »
For those of you who may know him, Tim was the sales guy at Delano Motorsports. He recently changed jobs and went to work for Kemps. His son was killed this morning while waiting for the school bus.

General Banter / North Carolina report
« on: October 21, 2011, 08:32:34 PM »
Little late in posting this, was in North Carolina for a week from Sept. 17th-24th. First time down there but went with some guys who have been going there every year for the last 10 years.

Unbelievable roads, just amazing how smooth the roads are there. No gravel kicked out in corners, no frost heaves, just billiard table smooth.

Here is a link to photos posted on facebook, this should be open to everyone.

Here's a video on the tail of the dragon from a Gopro mounted on my KTM. Added some music to it as well. It was getting dark so we took it easy going through there.

Here are some of the routes we ran, wasn't all of them but some of the big ones. You have to ride Wayah road, 25 miles of the most challenging road you'll ever ride. Elevation changes, switchbacks, sweepers and just when you think you have the road figured out, it throws something new at you.

This route went to Caesars Head state park in South Carolina. The view from the top is amazing, you can see for 100 miles. Its a 375 mile ride from Knoxville, but on the roads we were on its like doing 650 miles here.

This route uses the Cherhola Skyway and goes by the whitewater rafting area they used during the Olympics based in Atlanta.

Not sure I even want to ride around here anymore. Went out a week after that and it was just plain boring.

General Banter / Motorcycle ergonomics
« on: June 27, 2011, 12:41:58 PM »
Web site that allows you to put in your height and inseam, then compare different bikes as far as knee angle, reach, etc. I've found it to be fairly accurate for the bikes I have as well as others I've sat on.
