TEWKS Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Ribday should be one of the days of the week I think. KC’s Ribshack in Manchester NH has a really good plate! Hogs tend to gather. They have some of the coolest bathroom wall art! 5 Link to comment

BamaJohn Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Week-long Smokies ride with Dave Smith (rockosmith) on our RT's, and my Sister & brother-in-law from California on a rented HD. Creating new memories.... 6 Link to comment

Hey Janky, I forget the sequence at the moment (bike has been sitting way too long ) but you can pull up an LCD speedo where the RT logo sits. A little easier to see for these aging specs. 1 Link to comment

In these politically correct charged times, those decals could lead to some nastiness if folks react in a negative way. But it is pretty funny. A while back I wouldn't have thought much of this, but if it generates a debate, it may border on needing to go into Full Throttle. Sad unfortunately. Link to comment

That was funny I thought because I came up with the same chuckle in my head and yeah, I thought it might’ve been a little too hot to try out. (I do love black bikes and they do matter, so much so that my next BMW is going to be that color ) But anyway, Black Lives Do Matter along with every other shade we come in. (We all Matter) If that sounds like a controversial statement, sorry It’s not meant to be. Link to comment

TEWKS Posted September 16, 2020 Author Share Posted September 16, 2020 I took a ride up to Derry Cycles in Derry NH. because they had advertised a Tenere 700 for sale that a customer backed out of. The ad was a month old so yeah I didn’t really expect to see the bike. I was right. Anyway, a couple of very near stock as far as I could tell 1986 GSX 750s’ were on the floor. Neat to see old bikes like that survive into adulthood if ya know what I mean. edit... another something cool they had just hanging around. 3 Link to comment

TEWKS Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 In between all of my RTW trip planning/dreaming I should get out the hedge trimmer. Kidding, not mine. That’s probably about 700k trimmed up because of its location. Link to comment

If I get out of bed after my wife (extremely, extremely rare), the rack is made. If she goes to Louisiana without me, the rack gets made before I go to work. But I really wished she'd get rid of the damned fitted sheets, ugh, those things, you can't put a 45* fold in them. Hope the old man is doing ok now. 1 Link to comment
