    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.

Ive had some american made and some metrics.The guys i ride with all have harleys but are some good guys.they do love to pick on me when i ride my metrics.I came out of a pub on a poker run to find chopsticks in my tailpipe and pink tassles on my handlebars.I was riding a cb 900f at the time.I left the tassles on while passing them all.;) They do not share this story however:o
 
Different tools for different jobs, hope you waved as you passed.;):)
 
That is a little unusual. Normally it is the Harley's that have streamers!:)

When working at one of the local ski resorts they had a downhill mountain bike program for several years.
We would transport the riders and the bikes to the top with the ski lift.
The trails wound through the woods between the ski trails.
The trails were not maintained very well and the hardcore guys loved that fact.
As the trails were filled with natural and man made terrain features such as rock gardens, log piles, dirt jumps ect ect.
The majority of the hardcore guys had thousands invested in their bicycles.
5 to 12 inches of suspension travel up front 4 to 8 in the rear and all fully adjustable.
Hydraulic disk brakes front and rear.
Frames crafted to take the abuse. Bikes like and including this.
You must combine suspension with speed to float over the rocks otherwise they would throw you.
What they consider a rock garden, most would consider a washed out ravine as that is what it really is.
There was one guy who I would see riding often that rode a light weight no suspension hybrid bike.
What stuck out the most when you saw him ride was the pure technical skill.
What others could float across with their suspension and heavy frames he would use his brakes and body weight to balance, hop, and front to back pivot over.
His bikes accessories included handlebar streamers, one of those little chrome thumb bells, and a old school woven plastic/nylon? front baskets with daises on it.
