  1. Annie, are you looking for specific songs or just ones to have when you hear a new one? Renne..

  3. Ya well....I thought maybe we was friends but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,? Renne
  4. Also read the "what cagers think" thread....... Renne.......Still watching for elephants!
  5. Great thread, especially for the newer riders as well a refresher for us "seasoned" survivors ! I've found over the years the one main defense for me has been just that, "defense". I tell myself every time I set out that I must remember that "everyone" that shares the road with me is out to kill me...I ride for pleasure mostly and I try to balance that pleasure with the knowledge that I'm in enemy territory and still enjoy the ride. I "know" in every instance the cage ahead about to pull out from a side road/driveway is just waiting for me. The "slightest" movement of his/her front tire is my indicator that he/she is about to "pounce" on me! Same with wildlife (see below). I "know" that I can NEVER run a stop or assume a yield because "someone" is always right on time to broadside me. I "know" the tailgater is a young female on her cell who would never never suspect a deer/raccoon/elephant is just waiting patiently in the tall grass (really tall for the elephant) to "jump" out in front of me (not the elephant) . Somewhere forgotten (not the elephant) is the one car length per 10 mph follow rule! I "know" the left turn dude is not gonna wait, he's gonna turn, it's in his DNA, most right handed people will turn left in front of you, I don't know why that is but they do it. Left handed people do it too but you don't see that as often because there's not as many. Now for the "stoplight/ intersection" section. "NEVER NEVER NEVER" assume "GREEN" means "GO" or "RED" means "STOP"! "YELLOW means "In God we trust"! The dude to the right may have the right of way but try telling that to a senior lost, a junior late! Better not to argue, the bike weights less,,,by a lot!...... Oh ya, we won't even go into the DWI/DUI thing cause we all know "EVERYONE" is, if not, why do they do what they do? Combine all the above "traps" set by fate and/or stupidity and you get my drift. If at all possible, take some advise from a "seasoned survivor", take the back roads if at all possible. Slow down, leave early. Cruise "in the wind", embrace the peace and balance of beautiful scenery, the aroma of fresh tilled fields and moist lake shores. The flashing shadows cast by towering trees and the rhythm of the white strips combined with V4 rumble reduces blood pressure, you'll live longer as you relax in the absence of "cages" but alert always for the occasional "elephant"........................... Renne.........Surviving the "elephant" for 50 riding years.
  6. It's time to say good bye to an era. Been stuck in the "50"'s too long. My Ol' Custom has a new "ol fart" owner as of yesterday. Yep, it's time for me to "refine".

  11. Sad that you have to experience that mess ! Hope things clear for you soon. All we get here are the news coverage photo shots but I did spend some time on Google Earth to see the effects. It must be a mess, make sure you use breathing masks ! Ride easy Renne...........
  12. "oh" by the way,,it "is" a piece of safety equipment,,,,it keeps the brake fluid from spilling out................ Renne..............

  14. Msg sent Annie. Very thoughtful of you make this request! I'm proud we have such an international family on this site that cares and supports one another in all things! Renne.......
  15. That's a waste of your tax dollars ! It was tried here, challenged and reversed as the courts could not prove "who" was driving the car. The cameras were removed. Think of the money....first a "study" then a "plan" then a "contract" then a "purchase" then an "install" then,,,,,,,,,,,,,reverse the whole dang process......all at a LOSS! (do gooder politicians at your service).. Renne........

  18. "VARA NICE" ! I like the color! (I have an "08") ,,,,rich look'in like'a Mercedes ! Now, time to accent with small touches here and there.... Renne..........
  19. I found over the "YEARS",,,,,being aware of what's going on around ya serves well! I carry a few nice sized smooth round hand selected small pebbles in my vest pocket....a tail gate nuisance gets a brake light warning once,,,,then a hand signal to back off then,,,"PING" a nice sized smooth round hand selected small pebble seems to fall from the heavens onto the windshield of the "too close" follower........OOPS! Must'a been a a tire thread BB????????????????????>>>>>>>>>SORRY!!!!!! Renne.....Not mean, cautious and protective. A LOT of deer live here, I don't need a rearend collision!
  20. As I pondered the thought of explaining the "Spoon" thing, I opened the cutlery drawer for one to stir my coffee. I was saddened to realized the compartment containing the "tablespoons" more resembled my current status. Fond memories invaded my brain as I stood looking wistfully, jealously at the "teaspoon" compartment. I immediately removed ALL serving spoons! Renne.....also in need of silver polish!
  21. Oh My! I'm afraid of where this is gonna go,,,,,stand back ya'll:shock3: Renne.....
  22. Thom, Thanks for the order. Your scoot looks good! Renne..........
  23. I see you ask for "09" / "10" costs, I have yet to see a "10" but, I bought an "08" carryover RSVS for $13.9k, they gave me $4500 trade in for my 2000 RS. I thought that was a good deal. "08" cost was $17.9k so,,,you can see the remarkable carryover price,,,a $4k discount! Renne,,,,,,,,,,,,,
  24. Tom! Your either brave or DUH??????? You say that pup bit your lip and you want it in your lap???? Renne........no nippy dog in my lap! No sireeeee!!!! Nope, nada, never uhuh nope!
