Re: swapping tires & home balancing

I never balance knobbies or 50/50 tires but I usually balance my road tires or sport bike tires. Weights are very very cheap and I already had the portable (<$30) balancer off amazon. I am out a few extra minutes in the end. I have never been able to tell a difference and I think it is mostly placeb...

Re: Fall TARkansas ride

IF we choose to do a "base camp" type ride, I would love to check out Mill Creek and that place a ways south. I don't remember the name for certain. Brock Creek maybe? I would vote NO on Chadwick. You guys make it sound like more fun than I care to pay for (bike repairs). At least for those of us le...

Re: Fall TARkansas ride

I agree with the adventure type moto trip. Although I only have the drz and packing is always a bit rough, it is a much greater challenge and always a good time.

Not the 11th! I can not go if it is that weekend (5 year anniversary) and I would really love to join you guys. I vote 18th-20th.

Re: July TAR-June 29

Sounds like I missed a great time! Maybe one day I can actually get my house sold and move out. I have not ridden almost all summer long.

Re: Topeka Oakland Trails group

I agree. That was the first park I ever rode at. The trails are not world class but I have a nostalgic attachment to the park itself. It would also be nice to see less random trash out there from people dumping.

Re: Topeka Oakland Trails group

Thanks for posting this Bob. I joined up. It is nice to see some concern for the park's well being. It could use a little attention.

Re: 3/29 & 30: Freeman Off-Road Resort Spring Adventure Ride

This sounds awesome!! But...I have in-laws in town this weekend. If I were kidnapped in the night though, and "held for ransom" until "miraculously escaping later in the weekend" I might be able to make this happen. :lol:

Re: Spring Ride-April 26,27,28

I was all set and ready to book lodging for this trip and then my brother pointed out I had double booked. :-( I really wish I could make it but I am going to miss this trip. Y'all have a blast and take tons of photos so I can see all the fun that I missed.

Re: Spring Ride-April 26,27,28

Sounds good to me Randy! I would like to share a house, cabin, RV, or whatever with some people. The more cost effective I make this trip, the more I can go back throughout the riding season :D .Pretty sure my brother is coming, providing he sells his KLR and finds a DRZ before then. Thanks for doin...

In what area? If Troy or some others of us were out for a "short" ride, lunch could be two states away. :lol:

Re: Dakar

I am thinking we may be on the same "certain site" I am going to check the video when I get off work. Let me know how it is if you watch it before 5. I am very curious.
