    Wellington it is a glorious day to get out there

    Thread Starter: F5 Dave

    Sorry in advance to those experiencing inclimactic weather. But Dogam! It is the perfect day to paint or trim trees or wash the car. Don't do any of those things. Don't even call a friend. Just get out there and ride while you can. You don't work all week to mow the lawn. I'm not...

    How resilient are the new safety camera trailers?

    Thread Starter: jellywrestler

    New trailers out there, won't belong before someone takes aim at one, or sets out to destroy a lot in one hit, of course there will be supervision cameras worth thousands in the, but balaclavas are pretty cheap too. Whose gonna be first to deal to one?

    Used Gear - How to best pass it on?

    Thread Starter: rastuscat

    I've been in the motorcycle safety game for several decades. In that time, I've collected several jackets, pairs of pants, various other gear. Some gets worn more than others. I see people every day riding in shocking gear, shorts, t-shirts, that sort of thing. How do we get across to those...

    Hydration.

    Thread Starter: BMWST?

    I am thinking of doing some longer rides,maybe a 800k or iron butt or even the tt2000. What do you guys do. A water bottle in a tank bag or a bladder and tube type thing. We have to stop for fuel or a checkpoint any way so a bottle in the tank bag would be ok i my mind.
