That meant going 100 mph, which was pretty fast for those old bikes, along with the twisty roads, since the Motorways were just starting to be built. Nowadays, someone could refer to doing the metric "double ton", meaning 200 km/hr, but modern sport bikes go that fast in 3rd or 4th gear, so it's no big deal anymore. A few years ago the Big Three bike makers, Honda, Kawa and Suzuki made a "gentlemen's" agreement limiting their big bore hyper bikes to 300 kilometer/hour or 186 mph. They were assuming their self policing would keep government(s) off their back and force limitations. Kinda sorta worked until BMW broke out of their mold with the scorching 1000RR with nearly 190hp. Now you can visit most any dealer drop down $15K and walk away with a near 200hp, 450lb. rocketship that shreds the gentlemens agreement. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda like the Seinfeld episode where Elaine's boss took her idea to open a shop that just sold muffin tops? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted July 22, 2017 Moderators Share Posted July 22, 2017 Wow those donuts have tiny holes, you could barely slide a pencil through them. Reminds me of a band from N.O, "Bag of Donuts", their first album was called, Glazed and Confused. “Glazed and Confused.”“Glazed and Confused.”Glazed and Confused.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStewMan Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 on my drive today, stopped into an indian casino to use the restroom and get something cold to drink. Put $10 in a slot machine -- second pull, won $66; third pull, won $40. Cashed out and left the building. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACV92 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Evenin' gents! BigStewMan, glad to see you're venturing out in mid Oregon. I may be able to work your way, with my job, soon. We'll have to hook up and hang out as we do here in the NW. I'll see if I can shake a little bit of the 'culture shock' that you're experiencing. I was back in the NE last week at HQ. Went to the Ben and Jerry's original factory in VT. Also, attached some pics of the flight heading back to NH. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t unpacked any gear yet and don’t anticipate doing so anytime soon. Still have a few rooms of boxes. I will be hitting the road soon though--departure date not yet determined. Have a stupid birthday coming up, so thought i should take a road trip. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a stupid birthday coming up, so thought i should take a road trip. I'll have to plan a trip that way. No need to buy me anything, I'll treat, more or less looking for a little non-work travel adventure. Anyway, if you head West you can hit Portland, not LA but close enough. Keep heading West and hit the Oregon Coast. Break out a guitar, or two, and strum away sitting in the sand staring at the ocean. Didn't mean to plan your trip, but that's what I'd do. Birthdays just acknowledge another year of experience, that's the way I try and look at those aged events. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
