http://goo.gl/IZWHb2 Planning to do the RWR to the Wall ride tomorrow, is the map correct? Never ridden there before, are there lots of cops? Did I find the right coordinates for the wall? Any other tips/suggestions?

Hello all, The previous owner of the bike said that it was up to date on maintenance. That said, I'm not entirely sure if the previous owner did the first valve adjustment that was supposed to be done 4K miles ago and would rather be safe than sorry. The bike has ~16K miles on it currently...

Had a close call today... Who would be at fault? Palo Alto. 5pm, going home on University Ave. Traffic is stuck and I start lane sharing on the right hand side of the road, not exceeding a speed of 10-15mph. I get to an intersection and because cars are blocking my view, cannot see that a BMW...

Rode by it as I was coming back from the Japanese garden and history museum with my wife... didn't realize it has so much significance...

Can someone recommend a good dental insurance plan for my wife and I? I am a contractor and my wife is unemployed, so we can't get anything through work. My wife went to a dentist today for a check-up and the dentist said that dental insurance is useless, because those doctors just try to get...

http://www.theverge.com/2014/5/27/5756436/this-is-googles-own-self-driving-car For real though? They spend all these years working on it and it has to look like a children's toy? Looks like the designer from Google got a lot of inspiration from this pinnacle of automotive design:

Woke up this morning, thought it was an April Fools joke or something.... Is this a normal occurrence?

I saw this guy a few times in Palo Alto: I know it looks dorky but I really want one just because, and my girlfriend wants something like that for her. I met this guy again at an intersection and asked him about it, but I was wearing earplugs and couldn't really hear what he was saying. I...

So my girlfriend just got this. I'm not sure of the circumstances but from what she says she made a really wide left turn, after going into a driveway to do a U-turn, going over the double yellow on Portola Dr. in Woodside. Anyway, she was cited with 22107VC - Unsafe Turn But there is no...

Are there ranges in Cali where I can rent an automatic weapon? I shot the Kalashnikov rifle in Nevada and that was great, but I have friends visiting and want to do the same with them. Are there any places in the Bay Area that do this and have reasonable pricing for ammo? Neither of us has a...

My friend is coming to visit me from Canada and wants to rent. What's the lowest price rental company in the Bay Area? We want to rent for a few days and $120/day for a 650GS from Dubbelju seems a bit steep to me.

As the title of the thread says. Full time, permanent, in downtown Palo Alto. For one of the fastest growing computer peripherals manufacturers. It's tech, so you must be technical, and a good web/graphic designer, and preferably someone who has experience in GUI, iOS, Android design as well...

I need to find a dependable mechanic to work on my bike, I live close to and work in Palo Alto. The BMW dealer has a waiting list of over a week and obviously very high prices. The bike is a BMW F800s. Although I'd prefer someone who is somewhat familiar with BMWs, I am looking mainly for...

2 weeks ago I bought a bike from the owner, who still owed money on it (thus didn't have the title in hand) and what I paid to pay off BMW. Today, I received the title, directly from BMW, in the mail. There are no signatures on the front side of the title except for the lienholder release...

Alright, here is my rant. So I move to California from abroad, so now I have to redo my licenses for both car and bike as well as get registrations for car and bike. This involves a minimum of 5 visits to the DMV. I'm not going to go into the waiting in line BS, because I'm sure you're all...

So I am riding now, but as I am in the process of getting a CA license (have only Russian license with questionable validity in the US) I still have my learners permit. It says I cannot ride "at night". What does this mean? In Canada I know this means 1 hour after sunset. Is it the same thing...

I just moved here from Russia and I need to get my motorcycle permit. I'm an experienced rider. I've already done the written road test for the class C license and plan on doing the written riders permit test on Wednesday. As far as I understand, after that I will either need to take the...

Hello fellow riders! I just relocated from Moscow, Russia for my job. Living right next to Alice's on the top of the hill where La Honda road is, which seems like an epic road to ride (when there are no cars, of course!) I have a bit over 3 seasons behind my back riding in Moscow. I've...
