    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.

anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

I rode to the county seat today to deliver a bit pf paperwork. Parked and put my dime in the meter and walked into the courthouse building. I emptied all of my pockets into my jacket pockets and zipped 'em up and handed the jacket to the security guard so I could go through the metal detector. The guy asked me "What kind of bike do you ride?" and I told him 1983 Suzuki GS 650 GL. He asked "Is that the one with the flat seat?"

Yeah, wasn't expecting that question. "No, it's got the stepped seat."

"Nice."

Far out, dude.
 
Took a break from chain saw clearing antics and went for a 50 mile ride around the county. I can't remember the last time I was off the bike for a week. LOL
 
OMG, Most beautiful sky I've seen in along time... Love my Commute in.

Wow. Great photograph. Contrast that experience with that of all the folks who have to fight the freeways twice a day.

Closest interstate is an hour away and I rarely have a need to use it. Mostly commuting on Rural Route 30. I will take Route 7 if I'm in a pinch but I hate it!!!
I only get on the interstate to get to Southern NH or if I'm blasting long distances.
 
Thanks.
No tripod, cell phone camera set on night. Its generally quick enough to get a clear shot.... and sometimes maddeningly frustrating. And I cant seem to get a goid picture or neon signs....

It was a great excuse to rack some mile, doing what i love with the one I love the most!

Heading out to rack some more miles!!!

Jedz out,
 
Since buying the fat bike, I've been riding it more than the GS, though generally not on the same surfaces. Only did 4 miles this morning, but it was a great workout.

Took my wife for her first ride on the V-Strom today. 95 miles in and around our beautiful Sandia Mountains. Fall colors are just starting. We had a great ride.

The road through the village of Placitas ends at an unimproved road that heads to the other side of the mountain, close to the crest. First gear pretty much all the way up. Mostly because it's a narrow road and we got stuck behind cars, one after the other.

Here's a pic looking North, towards Santa Fe.
