    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Here's a small photo gallery from a ride this last Saturday (March 14, 2009) with me (bwringer), Al Jones (awjonesii), and Tim Rose (twr1776):

A preview of the delights within, taken along a little country road I like to call BumpAss Pass:

Our first BC ride was actually last Thursday, March 5, but I didn't think to bring a camera.

Al's new 1997 TL1000S outside the Story Inn just before we went in to devour breakfast. We came, we saw, we ate it all. With this sexy beast in the stable, Al's poor GS850GL doesn't get much lovin' these days... :(

A great day riding, and the roads were in pretty dang good shape, too. Last Thursday they were piled with sand and gravel everywhere, but things were pretty clean this time.
 
I'm gonna start having some free weekends soon. I'll have to see if I can join up w/you guys soon for a ride! Time to stretch the legs on my new-to-me 2004 SV1000s
 
Looks like you guys had a fun day. How'd Al like his new fork springs ?

The fork springs are pretty dang great. Just a couple of damping tweaks in the morning, and Al was very happy. It's even much more comfortable now that the forks aren't bottoming out and the bike isn't riding nose-down.

For those who didn't drop by my garage, we were up until about 1:00 am the night before installing new Race Tech fork springs in Al's TL.

I'm pretty sure we got everything torqued correctly...

Excellent idea. I'll PM you my direct contact info.
 
Great pix.

Well, guess I won't be following Al this year with his new steed. It was hard enough keeping up with him on his GS. ;)
 
Well I do like the TL - its a lot of fun to ride. One thing I have to do is upgrade the rear shock soon. I'm not sure I am going to get one in before the rally or not. I have to order tires and new brake lines/pads already.

Definitely looking forward to the BC Rally.
