Just an FYI, **NOT** to get into any politics/police issues, K?

Officer Aaron Gonzales took over his post.  Talked with him today and he seems like a down to earth guy...  His pet-peeves are people throwing cig-butts out the window and double yellow line crossers.  (his words...)
Bike-less Portuguese immigrant enjoying life.

you'll have to forgive me, is Officer Stout the distinguished officer who patrolled ACH?
My fast lap is your sighting lap.

Yes he was and some would use a different adjective to describe him...

I have FHE with Gonzalez, he is not exactly easy to work with... [laugh]



There's a fine line between clever and stupid.

funny you say that, i've given it a tiny bit of thought lately.  i'm just not sure what slow, non-sportbike bike i'd really want to own.


...oh wait, i just described a monster.   ;D
Like this is the racing, no?

Desmosedici - it's the new Paso (except the bodywork doesn't fit as well)

I know this was about Stout but I like where this thread is going.

gm2 maybe you should check into one of those electric bikes. Don't have to worry bout going fast or getting hooked on racing them and you will have to stick around the house while charging long enough to get your 'family time' in   ;D

I'd be impressed if you could find one of those to buy. You'd deserve to go race it. I think you would be lucky to buy one that tops out at 60 and goes 30 miles.  [moto]

Kind of on topic, how many  [leo] do you usually see on ACH? When we went up last weekend there were 2. Someone got pulled right in front of Newcomb so we decided to make out getaway. Got buzzed by a group of sportbikes and passed them while they were pulled over by the 2nd [leo]
ErkZ NOT in SLO w/ his '95 m900!
The end is in sight! Gotta buckle down and get to work!
