General Banter / Re: Moto GP thread

I'm thinking Marquez will run away with the championship. I'd like to see the Yamaha riders give him a run for his money. We really need more manufacturers in this series. It seems like Honda is dominant with Yamaha the only other serious competitor.

World superbike looks more interesting to me.

Looks like this forum has been quiet for a while so Ill put a thread in.

We don't post much here on this forum but we have a lot of organized rides. Watch for ride posts when the weather improves. Join the ride when you can. Rides can happen any day of the week.

Welcome, and see you on a twisty road sooner or later.

Jeff is correct, we really don't know what happened. Some of the potholes
are SO BIG AND DEEP a motorcyclist could go into a tankslapper at legal
highway speeds. I never met him but since he is from somewhere else it
could be that he wasn't aware of how bad the road surface can be in MN
this time of year.

RIP

There seems to be a discrepancy. One report says he was wearing a helmet yet the link says he wasn't??? ???

General Banter / Re: Routes - links?
« on: March 06, 2014, 02:16:43 PM »
I didn't put in a link for the three routes I posted. I don't know how ???
Greg and Ray put in links for two of my routes and I got them to work.
I couldn't get the link Tim put in to work.  I didn't try any of the links for
other peoples routes.

Kudos to those who did links to my routes.

General Banter / Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everybody!

We will enter the year of the horse on Friday.

Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.

Make happy those who are near, and those who are far will come.

The holiday is traditionally linked to honoring the household, heavenly gods and ancestors.

General Banter / Re: Movie

For a modern Hollywood movie Rush is very good.  It is a lot better than 98% of the movies out there now.

Agreed. It is better than 98% of the boring crap Hollywood produces these days.

I thought it was decent but not as good as my 3 favorite car racing movies.  I didn't like the computer graphics. It looked almost like animation. Fakey. Why can't they get better resolution? Also, there wasn't enough track footage. There was too much none racing dialogue.

My 3 favorites are Gran Prix, Le Mans, and Senna. Everything else falls short.

Wow! I didn't know those big Kawis could get such good mileage.

Good to know that. Thanks for the heads up. I'll back off a notch or two when entering a freeway. :)

It wasn't brutally hot on the Saturday ride. I won't ride today though. Too hot for me even to attend WOI.
