SB 53 (De Leon's proposed registration requirement for ammo purchases) was only 6 votes short of passing last night. Fortunately it did not. So for the time being, CA residents can continue to buy ammo on-line. :thumbup

So for no particular reason I was thinking about those key moments that mark one's relentless passage from the vim and vigor of yoof :ride:Party to olgeezerhood :afm199. Here are a few of mine that come to mind: 1) in my 40's two drop dead gorgeous wiminz stopped me on the street (in NY) to...

Trumple triple - old school :thumbup :teeth

So how many other illegal quotas are demanded in secret by LEO Chiefs? The bill for LA's quota fiasco is $10 million and rising: http://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-tickets-20131204,0,4601037.story#axzz2nBU6DDQ3

Finally! Just drove through it, impressive :thumbup Makes the other bores look old and filthy :laughing

Its been 5 weeks since I had my surgery and I had a free hour between helping my wife in her recovery from hers. The good: 1) Weeeeeeeee I'm riding again :Party :ride 2) Getting on the Capo after 5 weeks was the best therapy so far.:thumbup 3) The wail of an uncorked and remapped Capo at 9,800...

I started a thread a while back titled Capotherapy which started out as an ode to riding as therapy and then developed into a cancer scare with a happy ending. The short summary is as follows: 1) have an attack of pericarditis (since cured) which results in a CT scan which finds a lump in my...

Somebody driving a white Corvette tapped the roof of his car (imitating a helmet tap) as I rode up behind him last night - and yes there was a CHP lurking in front of him. So thanks kind Sir :thumbup :teeth I thought I was the only one to do that :laughing Saved me a possible ticket :thumbup

Just spent the last 3 days commuting into SF for the last 3 days of the America's Cup. I commute on my bike every day but am knackered after just 3 days of dealing with the SuperMoto track/Death race 2000 venue that is San Fran :wtf :laughing I take my hat off and salute all of you who ride...

I recently fitted a set of CycleGear's Speed Metal folding brake and clutch levers and a new Brembo master cylinder to my R1 after snapping the original by dropping the bike off its stands at my last track day. Yesterday, I started getting it ready for my next track day. I found that the front...

Some of you may remember me posting Capotherapy back in February. For the rest of you that don't, I suffered a false heart attack which turned out to be pericarditis caused by a blood infection. However, during all the probing and scanning they (Kaiser Permanente) discovered a small tumor in...

We went into the Sierras hiking this weekend. On Saturday we hiked Hetch Hetchy from the dam to Ranchero Falls and back (~14 miles). It was 107F and we were pretty much running on fumes for the last 3 miles. I was leading and my wife was about 10yds behind me. About 1.5 miles away from the...

I have just tried to buy some replacement sand for my pool filter. It turns out that as of Jan 2013, silica sand is regulated within CA. So if I could find any - a $7 bag of filter sand comes with a $120 toxic material handling fee. :mad :thumbdown Home Depot, Lowes, Leslies etc., have each...

Last Wednesday night I woke up with unbelievable chest pains and ended up in the ICU with a suspected heart attack and blood pressure of 230/160 - yes I know that's two wildly conflicting symptoms. It turned out to be pericarditis (inflamed heart sack) cause by a virus. The good news is that...

I needed to get a Visa for a trip to India so rode in to Mission St in SF this morning. I parked in the 5th and Mission Parking Garage. I have never used that one before and didn't know there is a Moto only section with it own entrance. I rode in through a car entrance before realizing my...

I had an epiphany yesterday! As many on here know, I shortened the tail on my R1. I started the project to shorten the seat and bring the back of it up close, to provide bracing under hard acceleration. http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=420117 The problem that I was...

Came across this yesterday, seems very natural and the theory behind it makes sense. Anybody here trained in it? Thoughts?

Need to get my new tail painted. Last time I used Damien in Walnut Creek but his shop has gone. I need somebody who can match the color to the rest of the bike not just put down what ever is in the can (I can do that myself). Anybody have any recommendations, preferably in the East Bay?

2 years ago I did a major rebuild of my R1 after a lowside at T'hill. I turned it into a road legal track bike and clothed it in an Airtech "GP" style body kit. Here is how it looked. I always felt the tail was too long and worse - the seat back was too far back to provide support. So it was...
