    Anyone headed to Renovo Oct 20/21or22?

    The entire 44/144 stretch is marked at 45mph. An like rotten_ronnie mentioned, the *** pucker factor will be high especially if you try to take the 25/35 mph rated corners at anywhere close to 150k. You will definitely have to be leaned over quite far and probably dragging your knee, to take the...

    Ride Report - 2 Bikes, 2 States, 2 Days and 2 Turkeys

    Sweet!! saw a few suicidal chipmunks myself. Must be something in the nuts there. Btw, I had to reschedule my M2 exit for the 27th and 29th instead, which is just a two week delay, so it's not that bad.

    Anyone headed to Renovo Oct 20/21or22?

    If you're gonna be spirited I suggest taking 144, as you head south on 44/144, from coudersport. You're better off on 144, rather than 44, as the pavement is real nice. The last stretch of 144, tamarack rd, is a real treat with fast sweeping turns the whole way. 44 is a more scenice route...

    Found this in the dumpster

    My cat's pretty friendly with the neighborhood racoons. Even had the two of them try to high five, if you can even call it that, through the glass door to my deck.

    Awesome pics!!! I need to take my camera the next time I make a trip out there. Would've been fun to catch the bears (The ones I nearly ran over :eek:) on video though.

    Trip to Renovo, Pennsylvania On Long Weekend (Oct 7th)

    Flattering pic!!! lol. The ride up 144, past renovo, was by far the best of the trip and the pavement was amazing. Was great meeting you guys up there. Btw, my GoPro ran out of space just as I hit Hyner; So no vids of anything exciting. Those 6-8 miles were a real fun ride though. Thanks for...

    I want me one of these...

    Let's have a GTAM group buy. About 300 orders of this should bring the price down a bit. Wonder if McGuinty would subsidize this :rolleyes:. Might actually make it worthwhile In all seriousness, I would go for it if I could take it out in winter. Other than that, I'd still prefer my good ol' moto

    Ride Report - Pennsylvania Bound over the Labour Day weekend

    Awesome!! Thanks again for the info. I'll try and take a detour along St. Rt 4005, then switchback to 144 or 44 and do the reverse around 120 on the way back. Too many roads to explore. I might even try kettle creek state park along the way. As far as getting down there I might try something...

    Ride Report - Pennsylvania Bound over the Labour Day weekend

    How are the roads overall leading to, as well as on Rt 44. I heard that PA was hit hard by the floods as well last month. I'll have to set up my GPS for this soon. If anyone is interested in joining, send me a PM. I'll be heading out this Sunday and heading back Monday evening.

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    The only problem with the 90 degree right hand bend before the bridge (it's the one I think where Jamie had his crash) is that can end up in a real cluster*** if taken too early and fast. Every damn time I've been there I see cars cross waaaay over the yellow. Even when they can see you coming...

    Tires tires Tires - what tires are best for touring?

    I got 12k out of the orginal BT-015's that came with mine. Hopefully I get the same out of these. More would be awesome, but I'd be happy with 12-15k just coz the handling is so great with the Z8's compared to the BT 015's

    Tires tires Tires - what tires are best for touring?

    got the Metzeler Z8's from petes (had a great deal on them) and had them installed by recidivist. Only got 2k on them right now, but they are amazingly sticky in the corners and real good in the rain. They're supposed to wear real well and I expect to get between 12-15k out of them, but time...

    Ride Like a Police Officer

    Is it bigger than the electra glide? I think the frame on the road ling is the same as the electra glide but I could be wrong. Doug also pointed out that the tires on the stock '09 and up were wider, and I did notice that they were indeed wider on the one '09 model they had. Plus, that 09 turned...

    Ride Like a Police Officer

    There was one guy there for the advance level 2. The exercises seemed tough. The keyholes were just under 18ft I think, and quite a bit of the slow speed exercises required leaning the motorcycle almost to the point of scraping the floor boards on either side. He was doing pretty good but lost...
