Soon we will be riding 690 SuperMotos up there.  For sure the road is going away. It's been very interesting over the past few weeks learning new lines due to the handling & power changes of the new bike plus mix all the bad road in. Woo Hoo! Wait until some good rain comes along and drops all kinds of leaves & branches and then even washes the road out even more. Someone has painted yellow circles around all the bad holes but the paint is fading. One of the things that gets me is how the bike "clubs" hang out in their certain spots and run the same corners over & over. Then when the 4 wheel drifters show up they cheer them on too! None of them seem to get, seem to understand that all of that just chews up and ruins the road they love even faster.  I'll ride that road until it just can't be ridden any longer. Was it ten years ago that the 40 day / 40 night rain came & destroyed it? |

Went up & down Tantalus this morning. Rougher than a cob but still fun.

Where have you been living for the last umpteen years? Speaking of crap roads...... I found a big dent on the right side of my front wheel today & I know right where it happened.  Going after City/County - State as soon as I find out whose road it is. |

I was going to go out & look for trouble this morning but low, dark clouds have rolled in & light showers have been forming all around. I guess I'll have to wait and see how it goes later.  |

Well I guess I would in cylinder count, but that hyper sure looks like fun!... |

Bet my SD would stomp on it. Plus, I know where you can find one at a good price. |

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.
