I was driving a big rig size diesel truck down 19th Ave. in SF last week. This truck is 102 inches wide and may only have 12 inches on either side when centered in the middle of those narrow lanes. Just as I was going to start moving forward from a complete stop in bumper to bumper traffic, a...

I knew that would get you to look:cool I was driving East bound over the BB a couple of weeks ago and came across a guy riding a white Busa with custom looking panniers in the number 3 lane. He had a pillion and was riding very conservatively. He may of had 150 feet between himself and the...

Last Friday at about noon, the driver and passenger of this car were seen breaking into and stealing contents of a coworkers car in Novato. They were both black men. They stole two bags of piano tuning tools. When approached they sped off. The car is a very nice looking black Mercedes with large...

How do you post pictures larger than 250KB or can you? I have two 3MB pictures, taken from a security camera I would like to post.

Folks, A friend told me about this ride. It is out of the Equator Coffee/Proof Lab in Tam Valley and will end with a BBQ at the Speed Shop in San Rafael. I've not seen the route, but I assume it will included the great riding on the coast and Mt. Tam. Last ride had maybe as many as 200 riders...

Hello Barfers, My 21 year old son has a summer internship in Batton Rouge this summer. He wants to drive as opposed to fly, so he has a car for the 8 weeks he will be there. He only has about 4 days to get there. Looking at Google Maps it suggests 10 or 40 East. I have no experience drive that...

I was commuting home yesterday in my car when I was passed by a guy riding a metric cruiser with a back support mounted into the seat. It went right up to the small of his back. All I could think is that if he hit something, that thing could exert a lot of pressure on the very spot you don't...

Hello fellow Barfers, I just found out that my friend's sewer inspection truck was stolen from in front of his house in the Ingelside area of SF last Thursday night Friday morning. It is a 2012 I believe, E450, V10 powered, 24 foot longish white box truck outfitted to inspect city sewers. It...

I was just reading the thread on commuting and accidents. Many of us have collided with cars or trucks while riding when it was not our fault. You end up with a damaged motorcycle, gear, helmet and body. How did their insurance company deal with you? Did they try to blame it on you or claim you...

Does anyone know if the Sunday Morning Ride is still taking place? Used to leave Tam Valley (Arco Station) and head out over the mountain and up north. If so do you know what time they head out?

This afternoon I was caging it back through Berkeley on 80 headed for the San Rafael, Richmond Bridge turn off when I bike flies past me. This guy with a cupcake is cutting in and out while speeding up and down through traffic to take the same exit. I'll say he only because of the blue schemed...

Hello Barfers. I may have the opportunity to ride my BMW RT from Santa Rosa to South lake Tahoe. With that said I'm looking for recommendations for both Northern and Southern approaches. I'm would like to stay off of the freeways as much as possible. I would love winding two lane roads with...

Hello Barfers, I'm going to be spending a week in the Northstar area this July, and want to do some dual sport riding -more dirt than street if possible. The Donner train tunnels are definitely on my list, but am looking for other great riding that will lead to great views. Riding a plated...
