    Why am I the only one posting here?

    Probably because we have such an active PNW Owners group where all the action is!

    Nearly Superbowl time !

    I beg to differ, Arjayes. Passing is always more risky than running. Seattle's strength has been the run. You have a big, power bruiser like Lynch and a mobile, elusive quarterback like Wilson with 3 chances and 1/2 a yard? Are you kidding me? Pats are cheaters. If the balls were deflated...

    Nearly Superbowl time !

    Worst call ever. What can you do? All you Seahawks haters: Sherman talks too much and Lynch doesn't talk enough. Get over it. They are great players and interesting personalities. ::021::

    Nearly Superbowl time !

    Seattle is numb ... let alone the whole Pacific Northwest. That's sports. Time for a little riding therapy.

    Nice choice, 2112. I liker Aberlour but I up you with my Balvenie 21-yo Portwood. GO HAWKS! Patsies won't know what hit them! ::012::

    NFL Championship games!

    Yes. As a fan, Sherman could exhibit a little more class. Pass it off as youth. He an amazing talent, but with a mouth (never seen that before in sports!). Smart guy who probably is trying to play the "psych" part of the game. If he is increasing his profile so that quarterbacks are afraid...

    NFL Championship games!

    The whole philosophy is to kill the clock and reduce the risk of turnovers. When you are playing to win (vs. not to lose), you "up" that risk a bit more to move the ball. Not really wrong, but when Green Bay went into "prevent" mode and Seattle took advantage and made some improbable plays to...

    NFL Championship games!

    From Seattle: whew :o Does anyone have a spare adrenal gland? My OEM one is shot. Yeah ... did Green Bay collapse or did Seattle steal it? Monday morning QBing is always fun.

    No comments. Went to the game. Just happy in Seattle this morning. :)

    You can't get Glen Moray easily in the US. I picked up a bottle of "inexpensive" 12-yo in a tourist shop on Princess Street when I was over in Edinburgh in December. Going to wait until my riding buddy comes up from his home in Florida, to crack it. My goal was to have a bottle from each...

    Did someone say: Café Royal? Great place, in one of the world's best cities.

    WOW, WHAT A GAME ! COWBOYS !!! Woot-Woot-Woot !

    I absolutely love single malts - one of my favourite sports! However, getting inebriated on those spirits is not a good idea. Nose and sip. Almost wish they didn't contain alcohol .... almost. My, these threads go off on tangents, don't they. Maybe we have to start a new one: "Super Tenere...

    Did you say: Glen Moray? (Sorry, everyone, it was before I owned a Tenere and it was a rental).

    WOW, WHAT A GAME ! COWBOYS !!! Woot-Woot-Woot !

    No he isn't. I did a bike tour of Scotland in 2009 (on a rented GS). You are correct. Some of the best motorcycle riding anywhere (not to mention distillery pit stops). :P (not that we drank and rode - that was after we parked the bikes at night).

    Farkle Remorse Thread

    I thought Zega were great because you COULD bang them back into shape - just overly expensive. So what are the perfect panniers??? Do they exist?

    WOW, WHAT A GAME ! COWBOYS !!! Woot-Woot-Woot !

    That's what I am talking about, RUSH-MAN. I have a colleague in Oban who is a huge Newcastle fan. I don't quite understand the game (what we call soccer). That "flopping" thing is certainly a repugnant part of the game. Rugby is nuts.

    New guy from Edinburgh UK

    Welcome! Was just in Edinburgh for business. One of my favo(u)rite cities in a fine riding country. Check out the "Farkle Remorse" thread. Be prepared, because I don't think your typical Scottish penny-pinching ways will get you too far! :D

    You are a man of impeccable taste, Snake. As for you, Jeff ... now I know the real reason you painted your ride yellow. And the Steelers won 5 rings. The 6th one was won for them by the refs ( a still bitter Hawks fan). >:(

    WOW, WHAT A GAME ! COWBOYS !!! Woot-Woot-Woot !

    Keep underestimating and hating on the Seahawks. We love that! (You have to understand that Seattle was a sorry-a## sports town for so long, last year was very sweet. I have followed this team through thick and thin since I moved here 20 years ago (Rick Mirer was quarterback). This is the...

    Dream on, Texas-types. Packers are 8-0 at home as well. Little chance of Romo making it past the Tundra to face the Legion of Boom, anyway. Coach .... errr .... owner Jones will need to bring his skivvies. Check out the temperatures for the weekend up in Wisconsin. The Pacific Northwest...
