    Tail of the Dragon | Someone spreading Oil

    How do we know this was intentional? I found an oil slick on a onramp once, it was interesting to say the least. This is another reminder of why you should keep it dialed in when on public roads, the unkowns.

    New to Adventure Bikes/Riding - What should I know?

    Buy a cheap dirtbike and go beat the living snot out of it. If you drop a cheap bike, it hurts less on your pocket book. since you do not care (Actually a important part of dirt riding at time) you are more likely to take chances, thus learning. If you hooligan like crazy you learn mad...

It is arguably a lost tool that could help, and I plan n carrying...

    What's going on?

    I had a set of new tires for the KLR once who's profile and compound was so different, I thought sure the bike was going to come out from underneath me. I called a buddy and he told me the right thing, suck it up and hit some twisties. once I did theis the mental challenge was gone and all was good.

    The coming economy and us

    IF you have ever tried to play poker against someone with basically a ulimited pile of money, you get why redistribution is so important. Further putting the "Robber Barons" Into check is the only real way the common man climbed the ladder of success leading to the highest ever standard of...

    8 Motorcycle Camping Gear Essentials for Under $300

    HA! I got the same mini stove, it kicks ass. I also have the mini Lantern as well ;) On a sheep hunt last year I brought along an air mattress. I did not bother with the battery compressor it comes with, as I had a portable tire compressor in my truck. Two different types of compressors which...

    The coming economy and us

    Good post Chuck, but to be fair Clinton benefited from the dot com bubble as well as leaving a recession to bush as it burst. I do agree overall however.

    The coming economy and us

    I applaud you for sacrificing your youth for the risky gamble of a somewhat early retirement. I chose more balance and still focused on retiring in my early fourties. Had I not had to care for a family member and spent often a Grand a Week on medication in our puke medical system, I likely...

    The coming economy and us

    As a world traveler, I would argue more to learning negotiate skills. I think those of us who have done a significant amount of travel, especially adventure travel worry less about the zombie apocalypse syndrome as we have already been to those areas and did not need to dig a trench with a...
