    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.

Pic of the week game

July, 2005, trying to get out of Durango, Colorado, headed home.

BOTH bikes were having charging problems. Got new batteries for both, things were better, but her 850 was still "iffy".

She snapped this picture while I was working on my Voyager.

All that I have is a picture of my tire with a drywall screw in it. No picture of me plugging it at a convience store parking lot- I was by myself. Also no picture of me and a dead charging system 200 miles from home.
 
Here is a picture I got of Larry (alke46, uncle Larr...) working on my motorcycle. Last summer when on my 6,000 mile Big Adventure, my speedometer gear striped out leaving me with no odometer. I happened to be in Larry's neighborhood, meeting him for breakfast. At the end of breakfast he asked if I wanted to go to his house. "No, I want to get back on the road". Then he pulls out a speedometer gear that I needed! We went to his garage to swap out the gear. I was very grateful for his generosity, with no GPS I had no way of tracking my fuel stops. Chalk one up for my good ol'buddy uncle Larr. ☺

Here's my KLR with a Honda CRF 450. We're attempting to straighten a bent shift lever. He wiped out on the corner just at the top of the hill and mashed the shifter into the case.

I was thinking Voyager was made by Chrystler. I like your model better though. :encouragement:
 
2013 in Wisconsin. Somebody entered a turn way too early and caught the ditch coming out. :o

Here we are trying to use the passenger foot peg to replace the front peg that was busted off.

Well that's two for two that I have screwed up, not my bike in my picture so I withdraw, good luck guys.

I have not been present for any rule discussions. I go about this game lightheartedly, and would only submit something that I was involved in. That Goldwing isn't mine, but I've ridden it, and it was a buddy's bike, and I took the picture on a ride we took together. I think that's a lot different than something like I saw a biker on the side of the road and took a picture.

Let's play.

Yeah, Dodge/Chrysler had a mini-van called a Voyager, but the Kawasaki Voyagers were definitely more fun.

You can click HERE to see a brief history of the Kawasaki Voyager in its three variations.

As I sit here trying to pick one to vote for I glanced over at the Peanuts thing next to our computer.



May it never be true! Such a fun thing here, Kerry has a good outlook and shared it earlier in this week's posts.

Speaking of Kerry, his broken Wing pic has my vote for the week.

Figured I'd include the rest of the comic here...

Still hoping to jump in here soon. Supposed to be stormy all weekend here, but I might be able to get out there for one...
 
Baatfam gets my vote this week for 2 reasons.
Firstly, gotta love the fancy tool kit rolls.
Secondly and more importantly, the GSResources sticker on his BMW.

My oldest son 2 years ago on my Virago. ( I replaced the turn signals)
