Is it just me or did the Power Commander V pc management software lose the ability, present in earlier versions, to compare maps and highlight differences? Anyone else find this to be a bummer? Any good workarounds?

Are there any shops anyone would recommend to do an application of 3M paint protector film? Hoping for South Bay/San Jose. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sorry for the time that yapshit dog came running out and I pulled in the clutch and blipped the throttle and the barking little rat wiped out, tubling ass over tea kettle into the ditch. I'm not sorry for the the time back in the day I was drag racing my buddy across the dam and got...

Long shot but I will give it a try. Moved to a new office, boardroom classy but has two low ceiling areas on either end of a long room. When speaking from either of these two areas acoustics are shit - echo-ie and booming for the speaking. Am looking for advise in terms of recommendations...

Question - for those with phones that have cameras, when you want to share a picture with someone, how do you share? Do you send an email with an attachment? Send an MMS? Something else?

It is funny, when I lived in Mountain View and commuted 237 and read all these horror stories about how evil cagers are I thought that I was in some sort of surreal bubble of kindness and consideration where many would go out of their way to make room and let me by. Never came across those...

I am seeing more and more evidence of drifttards - idiot ricers who played too much playstation and then go out and try to "drift" - oversteer through corners where oversteer is neither needed nor called for. Some of the evidence is pretty clear cut - lots and lots of skid marks, often...

Sad to see that there was some sort of wadage at Katcherz Mitt Korner on 84. Not sure of the details other than it had the full attention of multiple riders, local sheriff's department and CHP and involved at least one bike which looked dirt tossed. Hope the rider is or will be OK. There are a...

One of the great things about the hills around here is that the mountain folk (or for some in Boulder Creek is it Volk?) tend to drive well and be attentive and well mannered, particularly with regard to faster traffic. Of course the flip side of this is that the clueless flatlander can be a...

Mobile phones are a big deal and the mobile industry is one of the few points of light in these tough economic times. Smartphones are becoming increasingly expensive and hard to support, but for companies like InnoPath this is good news because our software, servers for the big carriers and...

One of the things that you run into on some biker forums these days is all sorts of pansified handwringing when it comes time to talk about the joys and delights of big bore motorcycles, leading to people who are often clueless, shitty riders, pansies, white helmet short bus net gimps, or...

This is shaping up to be a stellar year for the Sausage Creature on the hill and if this weekend is any indication it is going to be a bumper crop. For example, two brief trips to the hill Saturday, big cruiser wipeout by the hairpin on the back side of 9 on the first, on the second a sportbike...
