Globerider2002
New Member
I always wanted to ride in different parts of the world. In 2002 I joined a group of 12 riders to ride with Helge Pedersen of Globeriders.com from Shanghai, China to Munich, Germany. Globeriders has a fantastic professionally made DVD of our trip. I continued on across France, hopped on a ferry to Ireland, then Scottland and ended up in Iceland. From Iceland the bike was shipped to Africa for a wild trip thru 7 countries in Southern Africa. I finished my 1st ride around the world after the bike was returned from Africa to Seattle and I rode across the USA; therefore Globerider2002. My 2nd trip around the world started in Switzerland to Turkey then across all the 'stan' countries to south eastern China. Once again upon return to Seattle another ride across the USA following a more southern route.

Mine is the combination of owning a Super Tenere, my love of fitting car cruise controls to motorcycles and the term used for afterburner-less supersonic cruise of my favourite aircraft, the Concorde.

Just loved the way you guys could do that so I had to learn it too. Not as skilled as you pros but I can now move a bike bike around at slow speeds.

Scooper, nice photo. Head is up and looking wear you want the bike to go. Left arm tucked in and relaxed. Upper body looks nice and relaxed. Great work. Keep in mind, most motors have the advantage of being able to dump a government owned training bike a few hundred times as part of the learning process. It's a lot harder to learn on a personally owned bike, so your accomplishments are impressive. Keep your head up on the slow turning stuff and power to the back wheel at all times through clutch/throttle/rear brake and you'll be fine.Scoop47501 said:

Too bad you don't work for the Science Hall Identification Team. You would have a great User Name.jackfis said:
I had a Friend that used this Name for mail the old snail mail kind for decades.
He would order a catalog using the name I.M. Rubicon or Isaac Michael Rubicon.
I started using it as a online name around 14 years ago but because as my friend explained it was the point of no return.
Just made sense at the time and still does in many ways
"In 49 b.c., Julius Caesar
halted his army on the banks of the Rubicon River in northern Italy. According
to Suetonius, he paused in momentary hesitation, before sweepingacross the
waters toward Rome with the immortal phrase Alae iacta est (The die has been
cast).

By violating an ancient Roman law forbidding any general to cross the
Rubicon with an army, Caesar’s decision made war inevitable. Ever since,
“crossing the Rubicon” has come to symbolize a point of no return, when the
time for deliberation is over and action is at hand."

It's the nickname for the C-130 which I flew in the Air Force. Use it on other motorcycle forums also.

NoMorbills,, not really what you think. I did have no bills for a while after I retired from a 35 year Fire Service carrier. We sold everything and bought a motorhome and a jeep and traveled for two years. The wife was ready to seetle back down so we picked Arizona as our new home. I was in South Florida for most of my life and was very big into the offshore fishing scene. I was and still am a USCG Captain and ran Sportfishing boats on charters and in many Billfish Tournaments. I had salt in my veins
Thus the real No More Bills.
