  1. I'm in need of some volunteers. Don't tell Marca, but she has a birthday coming up, Nov 15, and I need 60 volunteers to help out celebrating this milestone. Yes I said 60 volunteers. So if you think you could help out, I have a chef who will cook some food and a place to sit. What the volunteers need to do is to eat what's been cooked and served on a platter. Can't tell you why I need 60, but there will be lots of food, so that may be one reason. The date is Nov 15 2011 The time is 7pm,,,,, do not be late The place: Scot's on Scott,, 74 Scott Ave, Paris Ont Marca should arrive about 7:05, and she is NOT supposed to hear about this from anybody. PS,,,, There shall be best wishes only!!!! we already have tooooooo much stuff. Please post on the calendar so I can keep track. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=286&day=2011-11-15 We'll see how this pans out,,, hopefully it'll work. Carl
  2. I could use both outter halves of the saddle bags if they are in good shape. I don't need the locks or anything, just the outside half. One of mine has a crack, and the other has a bad scratch.
  3. I think I could agree with that.
  4. I'd have to get some grey hair before I'd do that sort of a thing,,,,, on a Wing no less.
  5. Well the day is almost over, so it's still not toooo late to wish someone a HAPPY BIRTHDAY. There you go Earl,,,wishing you many more and in good health.
  6. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. Loosing somebody from this earth is never easy, but it sure helps to have support.
  7. What exactly do you mean by 'shift shaft'.
  8. So now my 2 cents worth: We ride staggered because that gives us the closest formation with the most safety. It keeps the group together so as to form one unit and so discourage others from injecting themselves into our group and so causing havoc. It also gives us room, if necessary for ANY reason to use the track or part of the track that we are presently not using. It's good to keep this in mind, that a rider OWNS that part of the road and we let him have it, it's his, he needs to know that!!!!! As we come to an intersection the same hold true. As we may have all experienced somewhere, turns don't always turn out exactly as we have them planned and so we may have to adjust in the corner. If we don't allow the rider his space, things can get a little dicey, but sticking to the rule that the whole lane is his, comfort and respect are present. So we need to examine our starting position and time. The bike ahead of us, needs to stay ahead of us and that is the following bikers' responsibility. So much for left turns. On right turns, it becomes more important, for the scoot on the inside track could find that the turn becomes much too tight for the way he has it set up,, so he will need the room to compensate. So keep your distance and your position. One rule must prevail, so I say: keep your formation and relax, you don't need to rush, after all, we are riding,,,and if your are in a hurry, leave your bike at home,,,, enjoy!
  9. Good stuff,,, just be very careful with that eye,,,,, too many little things can cause big issues.
  10. What's with the shirts and patches and now a shower???????? What kind of rally are you planning on anyways?????? And Bob,,, I can understand what you are saying,,, just looking at his avatar,,,,, now they're downloading all the hard stuff on us poor Canucks!!!!!
  11. I just read that you are turning 92,,, wow, pretty and young for your age I'd say. Have a real good day!!!!!
  12. Pork in the Pines is in Minnesota. Just put your cursor on the flag and it will tell you. Put your cursor on the earth sign and it will give you a map.
  13. That looks like CHARLIE!!!!!
  14. Will you quit thinking out loud,,,,,, you're getting me all confused.
  15. I wonder if the OPP has any 'celebrations'.
  16. Yep!!!!!! you need a trailer,,, but it won't solve your ROOM problems, she'll just find more stuff for 'just in case'.
  17. No wonder you got it cheap,,,, the tires are filthy!!!! Good grab,,, enjoy to the full!
  18. Just a stupid thought I suppose, but is your exhaust clear, or maybe it's blocked?
  19. Hope everybody caught the words: 85mph. I don't condone any cell phone talking while driving, but then 85 mph is an accident waiting to happen as well. I'd say that fault was equally shared to a degree.
  20. Bet the camouflage really worked! or maybe it was a blind fish. Nice meal or two there buddy.
  21. Or it could be a bent shifter shaft behind the middle gear case, also no need to split the motor.
  22. Thanks for the pictures Abdul,,,,, and if you're looking for a friend,, I may have one you can have.
