Congratulations Think of all the money you will save on front tires........

Bwah ha ha ha.... Better get a couple of nice bike covers for the other two....... Welcome to the dark side.

Happy Birthday Billy Have a great day!

I tried airing down on gravel and dirt (by almost 10 psi)and found that it was hard to tell a difference, except that the rim took many more hits (that you could feel). Without rim-locks the tire could also slip, risking a valve stem being ripped off. This is something that a heavy dual-sport...

I'm happy for you, as I know it's not an easy habit to kick. Nice way to treat yourself with the saved money. Keep up the good fight.

After a while you will stop worrying about that. With a dual purpose bike, actually used as such, gravel flying will pit up the rims. I have put lots of dings in mine banging over rocks, and doing trail side tube replacement. I don't bother with rim protectors any more. Sit the tires in the...

Video Du Jour November 7th and another hidden treasure, one of 5 that I rode today. No traffic, and so much fun! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gwz_xqbTYhQ

Well, that's a start.

I'm In, one last time this season.

Another Stolen Day (From Old Man Winter) November 7th, not a record around here but unusual none the less. One of our famous "Chinooks" brought wind and with it warmth along the eastern edge of the Front Range. The temperature shot up for the day, making for a comfortable and glorious day for...

Happy Birthday!

Very nice end result on that machine Pete! It looks great!

2015 in Videos The 2015 Riding season in Video Review; Where does the time go? Looking back from the brink of the riding season’s end, I can’t believe that seven months have passed. A little over 18,000 kms have rolled under my wheels this year despite consciously keeping my riding in check...

Happy Halloween I took the Great Pumpkin for a Halloween ride through leafy lanes. It was a great grey day! Pavement-less perfection! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S5xbIlxbdDY

Freezing Over It was a frosty below-zero ride to work this morning with rain and snow in the forecast overnight. Tomorrow the high just 5 degrees Celsius. This isn't the end of the riding season for me yet as the end of the week looks better, but as far as exploration goes and interesting...

Happy Birthday Dustin!

Welcome to the Forum!

Video October 17th This was my first attempt at using the YouTube settings to save the video. I have to say I am dissapointed with the quality, but it did take a 10th of the time to upload. It shows, sadly. The hill that I fall over on was the hill that stopped me the last time I took the 990...

About 5 years ago now I was on a group ride in the BC back-country. A guy riding a KLR kept blowing his main fuse. Thankfully I had a few spares, but after the 3rd I decided to try to find the cause since I only had one spare left that was big enough. His main starter solenoid had a loose...

Yep, I resemble that remark. A couple more weeks to that number.
