    IDEAS for BARF

    Hello BARFers. I've been silent from the forum for a while now, but not out of the riding world. Please read on, there is a lot I have to say to help BARF and the riding community. Today marks the best day I have felt in 6 months, so I'm posting. Jen and I moved to Sacramento last year for...

    How fast should we ride using a respected world figure – SANTA CLAUS

    First, let's do away with the myth that Santa does ALL the gift deliveries, he must have helpers. But even if Santa delivered to just one city how fast would he have to fly or sleigh. Remember his sleigh is dual purpose, perhaps even considered a dual sport. I'll use my city (Santa Rosa) as...

    Battle to save Santa Rosa

    It's just awful here. Many friends lost their homes. One client were we just finished working lost their home. Many more threatened. THE NEXT HUGH FIRE WAVE WILL BEGIN SOON. I picked up a really close friend at 7am Monday in a shopping parking lot. He had his clothes, cell, and wallet. He...

    Independence day (July 4) 2017

    REMEMBER YOUR BIKER CREED... My biker creed (there are many versions) is long but starts with this: "I ride because it is fun. I ride because of the freedom and being exposed to the elements. I ride because of the intrinsic vulnerability and danger of riding. When I ride I take my own life...

    Amazing racer and child (son) knee dragging

    I know, this should be in the sink, BUT it has sat in my mind for a week now, I think it deserves some discussion. Good, Bad, me being stupid, who knows... :twofinger I have tried to confirm the pic, but can't find the original source.

    Pending Lake Orville dam catastrophic collapse. Everyone down river mandatory evacuations.

    Mods keep this up for a day or two. Everyone please follow local news for latest developments. No need to post replies unless people need places to stay. I just heard Yolo flood bypass fully open and can handle 400k cubic feet per SECOND! So the old and not maintained downtown Sacramento...

    New safety protection idea - break away boot soles

    So I am here bored doing business stuff. Then an idea pops into my pee brain. If you ever watched any videos of the late Dr. John Hinds, he often mentions what happens when a street rider puts their foot down in an attempt to keep their bike from crashing while at speed. The result is...

    A fire fighting motorcycle - interesting

    So I was searching craigslist for fire stuff and this came up. I did a search of BARF and again kitchen sink so I hope it's not a repost. Anyway, I thought it was interesting and whimsical and not to be confused with the wimcycle bicycle product.

    I have questions about county 911 call centers

    NEW Questions ---- I have questions about county 911 call centers I have been calling the direct lines into county 911 centers to verify they are still good. I did this about 10 years ago and posted the list of these numbers. Why am I doing this. Because I knew that when you dialed 911 from...

    New injury detection suit - protection gear people should take note of this

    I stumbled upon this while looking at some ski stuff on the "internets". This suit is deigned to help paraplegic athletes because they can't feel injuries. I'm tossing this into the motorcycle forum because there might be some cross-over applications, perhaps a helmet lining. Could indicate...

    Happy Halloween - Skeleton on a sportbike

    Moderators, please leave in "general" until November 1. This is meant to be fun and learn a small amount from. It is probably quite a bit different of a post then we normally have on BARF. To the best of my knowledge this might be a BARF first. I have never seen a photo of a skeleton put...

    This is an amazing image

    Edit: Midnight Saturday. It's a photo shopped pic. BUT still really fun to look at. I take no credit for this pic and am not involved in anyway. I'm just awe-struck at the activity and this post is not intended to be about the picture. I don't know if it's good/safe or bad/dangerous...

    I think I'm about to die

    I hope I got your attention! I'm stepping into controversy. What to do when you cross the double yellow. Perhaps you are crossing because you lost traction while knee dragging. Perhaps unexpected debris on the road. Many say, “slow the fuck down” and thus avoid the situation completely...

    Silicon Valley is a young white boys club - BOX

    So BOX ipo'd the other day. It again clearly shows the mass of wealth to the young white male. So this is a political rant and has nothing to do with motorcycling. I am one of many that are now just starting to say that we need to change Silicon Valley, perhaps overthrow it. I am angry...

    Does Zeitgeist San Francisco always card at the door?

    We are headed down to the show Sunday and might stop by Zeitgeist in San Francisco. One of the riders is 20. We might be stopping by between 4 and 6pm. Do they card at all times or just later in the evening? Also, do motorcycle riders even go there any more? Thanks, Mark
