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.

  • 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.

Next tag should be easy enough, a gazebo.

I know where there is a bigger one, but I had Dan breathing down my neck for the last tag. I'll save it for another day.
 
OK, you beat me to it. There are no "pubs" or bars of any sort with the exception of the Legion in town, so I rode to a find something close to a pub in a town north of us. Now, i guess i'll have to find a gazebo.:D

Yep, thats how we do it.;) I'll be waiting, Suzy want's to run.:-\\\
 
Where I thought there was a gazebo, they removed it and replaced it with a picnic table kiosk. Maybe tomorrow.....:D
 
And the new tag is a railway station, old enough to have seen steam engines in its time.

Man, I had that tag about 20 minutes after you posted it Rick, just didn't have time to go out and get a new one til this afternoon.:)

Hey did you go home to get a different bike between tags?:)
 
Yes I did. Had to go over to Modern to figure out what kind of brake pads I needed for the Kat. I didn't want to post the first one until I had the new tag.
 
OH, I love the railway station tags. If nobody snags one tonight, I'm on this tomorrow, and I really have the ones old enough for steam trains, in fact, one that's only seen steam trains in it's active lifetime.:D
 
Let Dan get this one please!
I just want to see the train pic's. :D

Eric
By all means, nothing good around here anyway. All the old stations have either been torn down or converted into tourists traps.:( I think there is still something nice down Tampa way. Go get it Dan, I'll be waiting. Eric are going to jump back in anytime soon?
 
GSrick, I have been doing my part to get other GS members on the road so that they can join in. ;)
Parts to Canada, Australia, New Zealand and even the U.S.A.
I did get to ride last night though. Did anyone see the post in GS Stories?

Caution tax rant enclosed.....

Caution tax rant enclosed.....

I've been busy spending money (Eric) and working on my taxes, sorting receipts so the gov't doesn't get more money out of me if possible. If I can't squeeze it down any further, they'll have another month of my Navy retirement pay. Minnesota takes one month of it, I've allotted another month to the feds, and I made a very small profit on my business this year, and that's forbidden, they need that money, not me. ////end rant////:twistedevil:

Yesterday it was 68. I had checked outside 30 minutes earlier and it was bare out. I looked out again after I heard a loud bang. Turns out it can thunder and lightning while its snowing. I thought for a moment my bike had blown up(****ing mechanic screwed up mounting the petcock so its leaking a little. :( )

Its been about an hour since I took that. We have another inch or so. Bah!

Likely story.....We all know photoshopped pictures when we see them.... :DThunder snow, pretty rare, but it's fun to watch from inside. On a new note, I killed my first mosquito of the season in my house tonight.:mad:

Now that sucks, it was 91 degrees Farrah height :lol:. My petcock leaks too, but I can't blame my mechanic. I rebuilt it wrong all by myself. '81 1000G and its a new rebuild kit. Does Basscliff have a magic petcock thread on his page, I am defenitly doing something wrong. Everthing is new, but its a slow but steady flow. I liked the drip drip better. If I suck on the vacume line it picks up alot, so I know the check ball is moving. I taken it apart about six times now, and I'm sure the little holes are lining up. What am I doing wrong? Any ideas? Glad, I have more than one bike. This down time would be killing me.

Oh...crap! I'm heading to central Oregon tomorrow. That picture is a good warning of what to expect. Pretty happy we are not going on the bikes this trip.

Thunder (and lightning) snow is awe inspiring...first time I remember seeing it was on the University of British Columbia campus, 1999 or possibly early in 2000. Freaky enough that it made me stop to think about what I might be seeing.
