    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

The rain let up, the air cooled off, the bike finally works right, and I finally have some time. I got in my firsyt decent ride today, about an hour and a half. Twisties, turns, farm country, lions tigers and bears, oh my! The bike finally runs well, even with a backward, incorrect petcock. I am finally getting over the pneumonia and sinus infection from mid June. Gawwd! It's about time. Too bad my son was otherwise occupied this evening, but has promised a rerun if the weather holds. If tomorrow is as acceptable i n Cincy as it was this evening, we'll have a father and son ride, not as involved as the TCK, but a couple hours nonetheless. Yahoo! This was the first day this year that riding reminds me why I got this bike at the age of 49 in the 1st place. I'm finding a lot of nice roads around the northeastern section of the greater Cincinnati area, around Loveland, Milford, Landen and points farther out.

Always nice to get the opportunity to ride with your sons!
When I lived in No Kentucky many years ago there were nice winding roads close to you, just south of Florence along Rt 42 through Union and Walton that I used to ride using a friend's old Triumph Bonneville that I fixed for him. I think I used it more than he did.

Sorry, Josh. This was the first time I was on the forum for any length today. We did get about an hours worth in today. Spent a big part of the day rearranging the garage and cleaning and tuning the paint guns. Just got a used 1 quart gun off ebay and was trying to get it tuned and practicing on a couple used tanks. Splashed some of the Mercedesblack on one with a gun and it looks great!
 
EeeeHah!Aint it great when it all comes together.Enjoy yourself old mate.Cheers,Simon.:D:D:cool:
