    Best sub $150 video card?

    My ASUS GeForce 8500GT burned out after 3 years of hardcore Starcraft 1 and HD video watching it finally gave out.

    Has your bike "branded" you?

    Its been about two weeks since I rode the 675 and I neglected to clean it. I just got back from a ride/work in the rain and I got a wet cloth to clean the areas in between the fairings. About 5 minutes into it I burn myself on a exhaust header pretty bad on my forearm and run up to the kitchen...

    Comfortable knee protection

    I think the title explains it but I own a pair of Dainese Knee V and don't wear them as much as I should because they are too itchy. I also don't even tie the straps that tight and I sometimes get red marks on my legs whenever I take them off.

    Target fixation is bad, mmmkay?

    It got dark FAST today but I'm glad I do the speed limit when it's dark. People that ride in SF should look out for a big 8-10" pothole near New Montgomery and Minna. I target fixated on it but tore my eyes away to continue onto Howard but a cage saw it too when I swerved and the next thing I...

    The inspiration of your bike(s) name(s)

    I'm curious to what people name their machines. A lot of my friends haven't named their cages or bikes which is a shame because it means that they aren't very connected to their machines which are a big part of their lives. I named mine based on their original names. 2000 Lexus RX300(gave to my...

    Good roads to break your bikes in

    I searched for it figuring that it's been posted before but no luck. It's a long-shot but I'm wondering if there are any roads in the City that have minimal traffic and the fewest stop signs and/or lights. Somewhere I can break in a bike at my own pace(besides a big parking lot. NOT...

    Need advice from BARFers in the hotel biz

One of them told me that I was late multiple times and traffic is no excuse to be late since I ride rain or shine. :mad They told me not to use guest elevators(we're...
