Last 50 of 188- 1st Annual VFRD Spring Memorial Ride 12 hours ago, twitte Ben, Jason and Bob, great job stepping up to the plate and carrying this tradition forward. Once again it was the perfect balance of riding, comradery and simply having a good time. This is exactly…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 5 hours ago, 007 I would tell you to ride in, but there is something about the conversion van in the back of Greene's Motel that has a certain ring to it. Now that's really funny, that there is!! You know the name of…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) Creeper Van.
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 1 hour ago, zeer0 I'll arrive early and make sure they have removed the chalk outlines. And see if they'll remove those giant utility trucks towing giant cable spools, driven by illegals who much care if they back over…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 55 minutes ago, PirateRiderBen I'll make sure I book Cinderella's palace for you princesses for next yeah With any luck, the Greene will be bulldozed by next year. Hell, if we're REALLY lucky, it'll get bulldozed this…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) soichiro, 8/1/2016 at 3:45 PM I should be there. its only 2.5hrs from me. I hate riding behind Doug. Just when I think I'm doing pretty good by staying with him, he speeds up. A lot! :goofy:
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) Okay, I held my nose, called Greene's, and booked rooms for Norm and I. If you want to have some fun, look up this fine establishment on TripAdvisor: “Terrible Motel. Go to Super 8 or Motel 6 if you need something…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 3 hours ago, PirateRiderBen August 16th is the cut off! That shitbox motel has the audacity to have a cut-off date?
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 2 hours ago, whitelightning Trace, we could always just move the meet to Gatlinburg... Jeeeeeeeze. I'm embarrassed that I thought Pigeon Forge/Gatlin would be a fun place to go, but I have to blame Norm. He KNEW how…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 19 hours ago, 007 Maybe, just maybe, they will let me ride with them on a stupid commuter bike. Ohooooooo....I do not recall the Ducati Caballeros making any disparaging remarks about your stupid commuter bike!…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 007, 6/6/2016 at 8:56 AM Maybe Trace can convince the owners to make suitable repairs? Bulldozer...........
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 4 minutes ago, zeer0 See, not that bad! LOL!
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 2 minutes ago, zeer0 I've stayed in worse, like, blood in the bathroom worse. I think there was blood in MY bathroom....but at least it was dried blood.
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) Ben, I don't think you should waste another minute of your time worrying about this issue (that I generated). Your decision-tree for staying at the Greene is spot-on, and you are correct that it will work just fine for…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 2 hours ago, PirateRiderBen Arent the the trash cans supposed to be bulging with beer cans? LOL!! And yes, whiskey bottles too... [image: idaho 130.JPG]
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) 2 hours ago, PirateRiderBen P.S. If others echo this sentiment, I can certainly explore alternate options, but so far everything for the Sept-October timeline is ringing in between $115-150$ a night. Ben, Thanks for the…
- PRB's 3rd Annual Fall Ride (Oct. 6-9th @ Greene's Motel, Boone, NC) PirateRiderBen, 4/26/2016 at 3:51 PM I will be attempting to return to Greene's Motel as before. It's no palace of luxury but the price is right and the location is pretty spot on. I want to make sure everyone can…
- Prb's 2Nd Annual Vfrd Fall Rally, Boone Nc, Oct 9-13 2015 An even bigger question is why don't I (of all people!) have a King Of Earth icon in my signature?
- Prb's 2Nd Annual Vfrd Fall Rally, Boone Nc, Oct 9-13 2015 Add Norman to your list. He's "Bedman" on VFRD, but that's only so he can register for BR's shindig in May. :goofy: He's not a VFR owner. Neither am I anymore!
- Prb's 2Nd Annual Vfrd Fall Rally, Boone Nc, Oct 9-13 2015 I don't have a VFR anymore......
- Prb's 2Nd Annual Vfrd Fall Rally, Boone Nc, Oct 9-13 2015 Oh, that reminds me. I'm booked. Coming in evening of the 8th.
- Prb's 2Nd Annual Vfrd Fall Rally, Boone Nc, Oct 9-13 2015 I'm going. I might ride to Franklin a few days early, then head for Boone going up the BRP. Sweet!
- Prb's 2Nd Annual Vfrd Fall Rally, Boone Nc, Oct 9-13 2015 Hmmmmmmmmmm................I did a big Boone trip last September with my Florida guys. Nice. HEAVY fog on the BRP in the morning? You can bet on it! Lotsa outstanding roads there. Boone is a good town. Lotsa places to…
- Thurn Motorsports Led Mirrors And "de Dumbo" Block Off Plates Regarding my de-Dumboing by using a seat cowl: That was necessary because it has been proven here time and time again that matching the 2000's yellow paint is simply impossible. Longtime members might remember Teleskier…
- Thurn Motorsports Led Mirrors And "de Dumbo" Block Off Plates Costs more.
- Thurn Motorsports Led Mirrors And "de Dumbo" Block Off Plates Well yeah, I guess if there's an annual inspection, there's a problem with de-Dumboing. I'm not at all adverse to having mirror-mounted signals and maybe small running lights there, too. That's the best place for them…
- Thurn Motorsports Led Mirrors And "de Dumbo" Block Off Plates Yeah, I'd say it was pretty obvious from the photos that I murdered a seat cowl in the process. :laugh: I just sent a detailed "how to" to deltabox....he's free to post it here if he wants to, plus include his own…

- My 5Th Gen You echo my point hoping not to hit anything solid like curbs, fences, poles, etc., and leathers and ballistic protection isn't "hope", it's a choice. And whether or not you're geared up or in shorts and a teeshirt,…
- My 5Th Gen The violence of an "off" is unprecedented. All the sliders in the world add up to nothing when the bike finds a curb, a drainage ditch, a guardrail, soft shoulders (FLIP!!!), an oncoming car.....anything other than…
- My 5Th Gen Red cock-ring thing will come off instantly should the bike get horizontal and the rider get airborne. The forces at work in a crash are huge, and I'm always surprised how riders who have never been down fool themselves…
