Update: Case is closed. We've settled and I received the check yesterday afternoon. Although it was a bit of a headache, in the end, K&N stepped up and covered the damages.

pointless to rehash the track/street all over again. that horse is so beat to death, even skeletor wouldn't fuck it. riding is riding. unless you ride some piece of shit cruiser or something... that's just traveling to your inevitable death on two wheels as slowly as possible. and if you ride a tarted up ducati... enjoy your gourmet coffee with those tight pants while riding you smug slow greasy pile of garbage. and don't get me started on dual sports... god, just pick road or dirt already, we know your mommy issues are the true reasons for your inability to commit. ah yes, riding sure is riding as long as you're riding what i like to be riding, on the bikes i like to be riding on, riding the kind of ride i like to be riding on with my riding buddies and riding group and my riding forum.

You're only as old as you feel...no wait... I mean you only feel as old as the women you date...winning

From one large man to another, I am really looking forward to seeing you on a xr100 in full lizard suit on the track. Can you say "Backmarker"

Didn't even list Suzuki, fuck you.

Easy Anton Mang, I had a RD350LC in Germany but remember the group will pull 3-5 lengths(est) on a 15sec straightaway. Heavy D will be overtaxing the Tires/Suspension and will be parking it in the corners. There is a manual trick used to drop fast passing riders on the outside going into the corner by politely tapping on the their hand grip that can be useful. In any case he will have fun and I won't be. I can only dream on being young again. Tell him to "Twist of the Wrist" his fork eating hand behind his back at the dinner table and he will have increased his lap time in a very short period. Good luck Tracksters!

Haha. Those 6.5 whp XRs are pure man mode. No brakes and a shit suspension. Full out for all 10 laps and you better not get beat by your friends. Man up!

I plan to be in New Concord to meet up with you guys. I'm not sure how much of the route I'll be able to run with you guys. I'm going to be cutting it close on time. I need to be back in Jefferson by 4.

Pointing at random shit like @Tonik ? I like that game. As far as insurance goes, I have no idea how rates are affected by tickets/accidents/etc. I've been very fortunate in that regard.

No one has ever described me more perfectly......

$5 that kid never comes back to this forum.

Done. Agree not enough accurate descriptions of Harley. Seems like a loaded or biased survey towards HD or AD Farrow. Definitely no options to accurately describe my distaste for HD

You could also meet us at P3 Sunday at 10 for exploring

I'm a possibility and if so will happily ride sweep if Jacob will promise to come chase me down when I miss the turns. lol @what you're looking for an XR?

XR sold out from under me, may be in for this ride.

Well you sir would enjoy the pf9. You have time to eat a snickers during its pull Really the only thing I disliked about it. It was my backup until the 43 was released

I’m attending Fisher School of Business too. Planning to major in Marketing. I’m pre-business, but shouldn’t be too long now.... Took the survey. Good luck!

At 5 foot 1200 is ok. I am now down just over 20lbs. Slowed down some, I have not been riding my bicycle much. School, work and stuff around the house has got in the way. My RMR is about 1500. At goal weight is about 1450....

I sell them for $325 and tax. If that is the most expensive gun you have I'm concerned with your daily carry choice.

Doughnuts = The Devil

Well my progress has really stalled in the last month or so. I haven't gained any, just not losing like I was. Not eating right being the main factor, but when I'm on vacation, I'm on vacation damnit lol. Still sitting at 220 right now. November 1st will one year since I started eating healthy and exercising. My winter plan is to get my running stamina up and be able to run a 5k in the spring. I thought I'd never say that, but yeah I wanna run an event.

i thought about posting something when you first posted this thread and changed my mind cause it was so ordinary and just not at all profound... which is a lot like what happens when you just sort of fall out of love with riding. that's not what happened with me, actually, but it sounds like it's what's happening with you, or maybe your other commitments and subsequent guilt is just getting to you. I dunno. it doesn't even matter. i've been street bike-less for about 3+ years now, and while I still find myself searching for random bikes I get it in my head that I am going to buy, my mind gets back to my current priorities. this is coming from a hardcore track slut for a good 5 years, straight to just absolutely no riding... ambition/running a business and/or kids will do that to you sometimes. a lot of my friends on track had kids and didn't stop riding track, but i've always been like that. i just don't have the emotional capacity to maintain multiple of anything that takes up my attention and thought and involvement. i'll get back at it one day once i'm feeling like i have that breathing room in my mind for it. right now, i'm too involved in making sure my kids start better than I did, that I'm present (really truly present) for everything while they're young, and making money while the money's good. and occasionally buying stupid shit when i get antsy. best of luck to you on your present conundrum. the monkey on your bike will never go away though... that much I know.

Before everyone gets all butthurt, yes the track is cool, yes it helps hone certain skills. I want to do a track day. It's just not for some people, much like dual sport riding or touring. I hone my skills out riding the dangerous and spooky mountain roads, where a perfect apex is laughable in most cases. It's not ideal, but I have fun. The skills I've gained from riding on the street works great for the street. To each their own, just don't look down from your high horse when someone thinks different.

Here we go.

I quit riding, sold my bike for almost a year. Probably the most miserable year of my life. I had other hobbies but nothing was like riding. I also found out that riding for the adrenaline rush was a toxic way of riding for me. I now ride for stress relief, travel to see new things, and of course meeting great people. I still like the adrenaline rush every now and then, but in moderation so it doesn't get out of control. I think everyone hits that rut of not riding, it's how you cope with it and move forward.

New bike,looking for trails near Grove City? Any ideas?

The photos of your colon were enough.

Your rides don't go well when I attend so I'm out. Ride safe.

there aren't enough eye-rolls on the internet for this...
