  1. 6 months and 10,400. I usually do between 10 - 25k. Sometimes it's the quality not the quantity.
  2. I hit a buck doing about 60. The buck went into the ditch, the bike did some horrific wobbling and twisting, but kept on going. As an Iron Butt rider, you don't have much choice but ride in the dark. This is the time I like to stick to interstates, but if I get on back roads I slow way way down. I also find that I enjoy riding at night if the weather is good. I follow the same rule I do with the cage I slow down and take more care. In the rain I generally won't run over 65, depends on the road, traffic and other conditions. I've been riding off and on for over 40 years and (knock on wood) have never had a blow out or flat while riding. Did wake up one morning and have a flat waiting for me. My philosphy is if I worried about the rain, the cold, the dark, the flats, and the deer I wouldn't ride too much. So I don't worry about that. If your numbers up, it's up, even on a perfect sun shiny day.
  3. I got a car tire now. No more getting stuck in the mud and now mine is way faster!
  4. That makes me kinda partial to this one. Now if I just had some .
  5. I'll be there. What kind of a Meet and Eat would it be without me?
  6. I'd like to know how the gloves go as well. On occasion even here in the south I have need of warm gloves. Once my hands go, I'm pretty much done for. As far as the deer, I just let the classic country blare away. Haven't seen any yet. I think deer don't like country music.
  7. Went this a.m. and put 40lbs in mine. What a difference (good), think I'll try that for a while. I think max on the side wall is 44#.
  8. Don't I know it, but you still have to put your feet down at a stop. Don't ask me how I know this.
  9. Welcome Home AND My Many Thanks.
  10. You could download any number of them, but if you'll pm me your addy I'll send you two of my favorites that you can run from your CD drive.
  11. I know I'm probably beating a dead horse, but why not join the Darkside of software. LINUX! http://lh5.ggpht.com/_xOOWRVc9-a4/Sv1HwkFVyoI/AAAAAAAAA60/yhU0E0d9Gyo/Spidey640.jpg
  12. This is fantastic Don. Thanks so much for all you do for our members and especially now for our vets. I salute you!
  13. Thata boy Kirby. See ya Saturday. I'm still running 33lbs, but haven't done any two-up yet. Thinking I'll up it 5 lbs for the ride to Savannah and just see how that feels.
  14. No one can understand Tennessean, let alone a software program.
  15. Seriously, you know that enzyme in turkey meat makes you sleepy.
  16. Eat a turkey sandwich.
  17. Don't know where I'll be next April, but if it's possible me and my Kumho are up for it.
  18. http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l224/teyster2/MiscNgifs/th_Canadian-Flag-canada-729711_1280_10.jpg I remember and am proud of all the brave souls that go forth for the freedom of all, past, present, and future. http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l224/teyster2/MiscNgifs/USA.gif?t=1257898711
  19. No, I haven't noticed any traction problems. Just a slight lack of nerve. Kirby, get over to Gregg's and get that tire changed.
  20. I've heard of the stuff and it sounds good enough to try out in my 95 Tacoma. Where do you get it?
  21. Good on ya. I haven't put as many miles as I had expected I would, but sure haven't got any complaints so far. I' m working on the courage to drag the floor boards, but I didn't have all that much courage with the m/c tire.
  22. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_xOOWRVc9-a4/SvcrUuuFNyI/AAAAAAAAA6o/Ob8uUG37c4c/MyKumho.JPG That's one good lookin' and ridin' tire. I'm Lovin' it!
  23. PayPal sent.
  24. Oh, how you start to make sense. Where were you 6 months ago when I was going through my middle-age crisis and just had to have a new one?
