    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.

    Well, that explains why my teacher flunked me in geography class. I just thought she was being mean to me. edit: I've actually crossed that same stretch of highway but it was back in the early 80's. Yes, I should go ride it again sometime.

    Then that makes a big difference. I saw a guy riding a Harley this morning and the temperature was 37. Of course, he was not wearing the proper gear for those temps and he looked like he was freezing his go-nads off. Didn't even have a helmet on.

    Considering selling a project 1000.

    Might want to pull the ad and re-post it again towards the end of March. Hard to sell bikes in the winter months in the midwest.

    Talk me into/or out of buying a Triumph Tiger

    Oh yeah, you definitely need to attend the brown county rally next year. Lots of us regulars would like the chance to put a face to the name. Oh wait a minute. Make that 2025 as I won't be in attendance for the 2024 rally.

    First Bike, First Drop, First Close Call

    Lesson #5, if the bike was headed down hill anyway, why wouldn't you just sit on it and let gravity work? It really does, I've seen it before.
