Trailer Deal Alert

Lowes has their Ride On 8' X 5' Landscape trailers on sale for $488!

I just picked one up (haven't really used it yet) but it seems to be decent quality.

Re: Shade Mountain 3/21

I should have my WR250R off-road ready by Wed (tires, gearing, revalved shock, etc.) as I was shooting for Bucho's ride at Taskers :>( and would like to do this Shade Mountain ride Sunday. If Bucho or anyone from the MD or VA area is going up and has room for another bike I'd appreciate a ride and w...

Re: Unreasoning Concern over Gravel in Corners

Chasbo - Looks like you've gotten lots of good advice. Another thing that really works for me is to FOLLOW you, Bucho and Wingfixer through the turns :>) Then I can figure if none of you had any problems I can probably make it ok on the BigBird! Seriously, loose stuff in turns is indeed something al...

Re: Anyone up for any midweek riding? (9th, 10th, 11th)

THANKS for letting me tag along! I REALLY enjoyed meeting you folks and finding some new roads and getting the winter cobwebs out of the GL1800. You all made the old guy fell very welcome! I hope we'll be getting together again soon - hopefully on some DIRT next time with me on the WR250R! I got ho...

Re: Anyone up for any midweek riding? (9th, 10th, 11th)

Folks If you don't mind I'd like to tag along with you. I'd be on my GL1800A. I'm NOT your typical Goldwing rider. The bike has the full Traxxion Dynamics suspension set up and I think of it as a BIG sport touring bike. Also, I'm a big boy and, if I am holding anyone up I'll be fine with just saying...

new OLD GUY

I just picked up a 2008 Yamaha WR250R and plan to try to get, back in to some dirt road and off road riding, etc. after 25+ years! I'm excited to belong to this goup and am very impressed by your website/forum! I live in Frederick (Braddock Heights) and when I last rode dirt bikes they had about 4&q...
