Avoid the gore-tex combat boot. They are extremely heavy, hot, and for some reason give everyone blisters (and I can't say I've ever noticed that they do a better job keeping your feet dry). I use the regular combat boot when I ride and have no complaints. For me, they fit perfectly and are...

Really? This​ lowers our badass status too much?

I like to downshift as I slow down, to third or second gear, and then I'll pull in the clutch and click down to first. For a few reasons. 1) If necessary I can twist the throttle and start going again without worrying about engaging the transmission in a gear that's way too high / low for the...

A) You don't have the time? I sure do. I also have time to go riding in the first place. B) I don't know your age, but I'm going to go ahead and guess that you spend most of your time complaining about the youth these days and how things were so much better a few decades ago. And yet now you're...

I'll second what sushi said: not a bad idea to get your ankle checked out. It always helps to have these things documented (by a doc, naturally) in case something comes up in the future.

I don't want to nerd out on everyone here, but I think this epitomizes what is wrong with not only the debate, but "studies" in general. When you're looking at a study, don't focus on the results. The results are only going to tell you what the authors want to tell you. Look, instead, at how the...

Some other neat findings: Nonetheless, look at some other aspects of the findings: severity and patterns of injury did not vary as a function of the speed limit where the accident occurs. This might indicate, for example, that accidents occur at the same speed, i.e., motorcyclists at high...

You are absolutely right. Abortion is dangerous. Pregnancy, however, is 100% safe and has never caused anyone any harm, ever. Furthermore, abortion should be made illegal because having an abortion performed in a hospital or clinic by a medical doctor is just way too unsafe. Doing it in a back...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ooa3NVfFlEU So, those of you who think that the noise of an angle grinder on a chain is going to make a difference - your bike could be chained to the 50 yard line in the middle of the super bowl, and nobody's going to say a damn thing.

Read the newspaper once in a while. They did away with limbo. Instead of having gone to limbo for centuries as people have thought, it turns out all those babies really went to heaven.

Hey, if you want to be a new rider and buy a 600 cc or 750 cc sport bike, go right ahead. They're your insurance premiums and not mine.

I'd like to see a blitz of people driving too slowly in the left lane. Traffic flow on highways would be much improved if people would just move the hell over if they're not actively passing anyone.

Alright there, dude. Put 2 and 2 together. If people in a certain region of the country take four times as long to heal as people in a different region of the country, do you think it's more likely that a) the people in that region are inherently feebler, weaker, and legitimately need that extra...

If you want to pick a country in good economic shape to look up to, you might consider picking up a newspaper before suggesting Ireland.

I made a map to help you out.

This seems a good spot to ask this without starting a new thread: what do you guys do with the used oil? Bring it into a nearby shop? Do hardware stores collect them? Garbage depots?
