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.

    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.

    2020 Journey's of epic proportions brought to you by Jedz Moto

    It stinks how work gets in the way of motorcycling. Keeps happening to me too. If it weren't for the paychecks I wouldn't do it.

    Non GS bike sale posts....

    I've posted a couple of non GS's here for sale. A V-Strom and a Bandit. Although they sold through my posts on ADV Rider. It's not a big deal at all. Post away and good luck with the sale!

    I live about 30 minutes south of Nashville. If you need anything while you're in the area, you're welcome to my garage. Or a free overnight in the guest room if needed.

    anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

    $350.25 for the 3 day rental all in. That's $116.75/per day. The bike is listed at $55/day but I also took the full coverage insurance (accident or theft) with $1000 deductible and roadside assistance, plus the site charges a fee. To me that's a pretty good deal. Thanks for the local color and...

    Godspeed Larry. Just a few more days of riding and you'll be into the good stuff! At least you're headed in the right direction for better riding weather.

    anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

    Met up this morning with a mixed group of a dozen bikes and scooters to explore the curvy, hilly, rural roads of northern Alabama and southern Tennessee. The morning started cool, just above freezing, but warmed up to almost 60F by afternoon. The guy that organized the ride was on a 250cc...

    No Oil in Sight Glass

    I had this issue on and off with my 77 GS750. Sometimes it wouldn't show oil on the sight glass. I always made a habit of checking it 5 minutes after a ride. It would always show up then. Not sure where it went to hide, but there was always enough oil in there.

    Great progress Dave! So glad you're back in the saddle and seemingly doing so very sensibly. Would be great to see you in Farmington, but follow your gut. It could be too early to over do it. But, if you feel up to it...

    anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

    I haven't posted many pictures but thought I'd give Flickr a try. Got out for a nice 100 mile ride this morning to clear my head and take in some of Middle Tennessee's twisty roads. It was cool (70F) and overcast so figured I'd try to get a few pictures. One nice road through the hills goes...

    My little attempt at escaping the heat

    Wow Larry. That looks like quite a ride. Thanks for giving us a sampling of the highlights. I can't wait to hear about in more detail. How'd the new Tiger hold up?

    GS roadtrip planning?

    Soft luggage will be fine as suggested. Do you have any wind protection? How many days do you plan for the ride up and back? It's about 630 miles (maybe 12 hours +/-) if you take the Interstate. If you choose back roads it'll be a good bit longer. There's not much interesting riding between...

    Storm's Adventure Out West

    Subscribed to tag along on your adventure. At least I'll get to participate in the first part at the rally. Having recently completed a 9 day motorcycle tour, I can say there is something special about waking up every day, with my only responsibility being to pack the bike and ride, then unpack...

    New Recruit in TN

    Thanks Steve. I see my error now and corrected it in my original post. And while that route is nice, if I have time, and I'm not too tired, I'll head west from Paoli, and run 150/450 into Bedford.

    A "thank you" to Robert Barr.

    Mr. Barr's o-rings have certainly simplified the lives of many a GS rider over the years, including mine. Turns out he's also a heck of guy and a lot of fun to ride with and hang around with if you can get him to a rally.
