well, now that the fires are upon us, probably not wise to venture out until the smoke has subsided. Im thinking sometime between the last weekend of september into the 2nd weekend of October.

i am hoping to upgrade my gear over the winter for next year. Currently rocking an Alpinestars 1 piece perf for track/agressive street and a Spidi Leather Jacket for street

Recently got an Olympia mesh jacket for hot rides and it makes a huge difference!

Im gonna shop for some 2 piece leathers that fit a little better, full gauntlet gloves that are more comfortable and trustworthy than my Sedici, and a textile jacket for street rides’

Id also like to get some kevlar jeans for more casual riding

I love his stuff!!! I remember several rides that kicked up some gravel and ruined some guys’ rides. I always made it home with no leaks.

I messaged him about loaning him my new KTM so he could develop a guard for it. Havent heard back yet.

ask and ye shall receive!

These are the most recent from when I installed the Spark dual exhaust. Ive got a few more goodies on the way (including a beaver tail remover) KTM doesnt seem to have the same level of parts availability as the big Jap brands and everything seems more expensive.

This bike is so much fun Im not sure its legal…

@murphomatic

Ive been wanting to explore the Bible creek/Nestucca river area again but dont know the route too well. I think heading West through there, North to Miami Foley->hwy 53->26-> 103->202->Clatskanie and we could loop back on Apiary or Scappose/Vernonia.

2 years later and I see facebook dividing mostly based on politics. My Liberal friends are posting their news stories and my conservative friends are debating leaving facebook all together.

I think more people should find balance in the mix. Agree to disagree on things and just be nice. Posting divisive rhetoric only furthers each side’s agenda.

But anyways, After considering using real names vs made up forum names, I dont want to cease being Nicegy525. It is an online identify I have built over years of interacting with people all over the internet. Every online site that will allow it has me registered as Nicegy525.

I also think a community that meets regularly in person gets to know each other and we can call each other out when someone tries to be an online badass. I think thats one of the biggest things that made SB.WS special. We had regular meet ups for social and moto events. ride invitations that ended up being just 2 people all the way to massive 40+ group gatherings kept a strong sense of community.

Id like to be a part of building that again

can anyone send me an image file of the SB.WS logo? I know a few people who can make stickers!

too many ass clowns on the facebook groups. (at least the groups I know about) I miss my people I used to ride with!

While alcohol mixes much better with golf than riding, we can still imbibe when the time is right.

What did you drink last night?

for me, I had a few pours of Michter’s Barrel Strength Rye. Im not a rye fan but this is one of few exceptions

well, I am back to mostly hating my job again. I love what I do and the flexibility I have with my current job. I HATE all the corporate red tape BS I have to go through just to keep the wheels rolling.

Because of corporate’s inability to make timely decisions on things, I have lost talented technicians and have had to run a chronically understaffed shop for almost 2 years now… It is getting really old…
