    Rider Down in I-80 HOV Lane, Emeryville - 4/26/16?

    Big mess this morning ~8:40 AM on the way to the BB. #1 and #2 lanes blocked by emergency vehicles. Couldn't see much except what appeared to be a black Ninja 250/300 on its stand. Not much in the way of obvious damage beyond misaligned mirrors. Any news on the rider?

    RIP Martin Lampkin

    One of the world's great trials riders just passed away. You may be more familiar with the exploits of his son, Dougie Lampkin, but Martin left a huge impact on the world of trials riding. :rip

    Repeating Slideshow on a Smart TV?

    Have any of you ever set up a smart TV to show a repeating slideshow from a thumbdrive, or something similar? The TV will be unattended, so I would rather not display from a laptop. The need will be to display somewhere between 2 and 10 slides that change every 30 to 60 seconds. What do you...

    I Kind of Lost My Shit Last Night - Or, Maybe I'm Just an Asshole

    Just venting. Not looking for advice. This is one of those how-non-riders-view-us kind of threads. It will become clear why this is in General. Last night we were invited to dinner at the home of a friend of my wife's. I was already acquainted with this friend, but it way my first time...
