Looks like a great day for a great ride. Thanks for posting this up and the inspiration! Wonderful pictures. Did the KTM390 have trouble keeping up with the bigger bikes? I know nothing about KTMs.

When I changed to summer tires on of them was down 10 lbs lower than the others. I should have clued in. I checked it every couple of weeks and it didn’t seem to lose more than a pound or two. Last week I noticed it was low and needed 5 ln to top up. Today it was down another 3. Took it off and...

The Good Cookie or the Bakery on the other side. Strategically located for the munchies.

It looks like a pre-burger interruptus

I bought a similar pair, they were Mike Holmes and had knee pockets for pads, that fit a set I had, I felt although thicker than jeans, there would be very little abrasion resistance and gave them away after a season.

That Doodle video really made me think about knee pads. I bought a set of used BMW kevlar jeans, they are hot when stoped during the heat a couple of weeks ago. The knee pads sit in an inside velcro pocket, so not easy to take out once you get to work.

I know it isn’t jeans, but when I used to commute with the bike I bought a used Aerostich one piece ( in the days of a stronger $C and cheap US shipping). Goes on and comes off fast. Had my work cloths underneath. Left a pair of shoes at work once the boots came off.

That’s what I use and carry spares in case I need to fix something in the road.

This is key. I buy a couple of tubes every other year. One for the strings on the M/C and one for the patches on the bicycle. The smaller the tube the faster they dry up, even unopened. For the bicycle I bought a few "glueless" patches, but haven't tried them yet.

My battery totally died after I filled up at a gas station. I have a voltmeter wired directly to the battery and saw with each attempted start the volts go from 10 to 2 then blank. The little booster fired it up first time like a new battery. I think this came from Amazon and is over 7 years...

I wired a cigarette socket on my bike specifically for that reason. I have an old Cnd TIre cheapie, that I test out each year. I used to carry one in the car and when I needed it, I discovered the rubber around the nozzle had hardened and couldn't get a proper seal on the tire valve. I used...

That booster saved my a&& when bike battery died a few weeks ago. Carry one in each vehicle. You never know when you need it or you need to help someone.

Beautiful shot!

I have a homemade one of these that I picked up. I found the added height in getting the centre stand down made it almost impossible to lift the bike (700 lbs). I had to put a 1/2” thick board under the rear wheel to level it with the swivel plate, then it was okay to lift up. Made turning the...

Last day before burger grab and dash. But the rain might play spoiler and provide a northern extension.

It already looked like it defied gravity. Must be hyper grin producing now.

Love the signature line and pic combo, "Sent from the Moon" with a picture of Mars!

Thanks. I keep wanting to get that way. I attended a wedding many years ago and during the picture taking we took off to explore the area and thought I have to come back by m/c.
