    Good on you for helping out. The wife and I keep water bottles in the freezer and when we leave in the summer we put a few in the saddle bags so we have cold water most of the day. I have also seen alot of Camel backs lately.

    There is a malware going around that messes with your DNS or host table, try symantec.com and mcafee.com if you cannot get to both of them you may have it. I got it on my laptop my last trip and had to reloaded it.

    Looking for my cell phone yesterday and could not find it. Well I was unloading the dishwasher and guess what was in there? I have no clue how it got there but I thought of Eck right away and just had to share.

    One odd thing about Avon tires is they only put the pressure for max loads on their tires, I called Avon and went by this group so I run 42/48 myself and I get around 25K out of a Venom.

    We had dead squrill or rat or something clog a vent pipe once and caused the smell to back up into the house.

    Good for you. I made up a bunch of the bussines cards but it seems like I never have them on me when I meet another Venture Owner.

    Don’t' Trust PO mods Had a very interesting start to my day today, I did my normal routine checked tires, lights, etc fired the bike up and headed off to work. I was got about half a mile away and my bike just went dark and I could smell something burning scary thing at 55 miles an hour in heavy traffic. After sitting on the side of the road for a few minuets the bike came back to life and I was able to start it and get back home. When I got home I pulled the seat to find out the fuse block the PO but in had shorted against the frame and had melted the positive wire. After I finished removing the battery leads and made sure nothing was on fire I hopped on my other bike and headed to work. Firts Aid Kit You would think that this would have been enough for one day but no about half a mile from work I came upon a motorcyclist down he was scuffed up but nothing apparently serious. I stopped helped him out, did not have to use my first aid kit but I was sure glad I had it. Seems like a car ran him off the road and took off, I just could not believe nobody had stopped before I got there.

    My problem is if I am at a PGR event that has a flag line I am in it.

    They do have them for that every now and then. Go look at a hot rod or bike magazine and you will find one.
