    Wall of text posts on the subject of micro analyzation of ride info. I'm wondering if I'm in the minority in not bothering.

    The app to change power levels in each mode etc. Maybe use that once a year.

    Some folks love to modify their cars, motorcycles etc. Other than suspension, and I have spent four gran on a suspension for my road Mazda Miata I bought in 1994, and my motorcycle has Race Tech cartridge emulators on the front forks but that is pretty much it. I don't see any mods needed to...

    Perfectly happy with the stock tires for my particular needs. No punctures yet though my dearly departed friend did get a puncture in his while paved trail riding.

Photos are from AEgir Brewpub in Flam Norway, the Philharmonic Dining Room in Liverpool, Bistro De Pompe in Bruge, Belgium (I went to High School in Belgium), the Duvelium in Bruges, pub in Lewes...

    Is Vado Smoking Addictive?

    I've lived in the same house about a mile from the Russian River pub in Santa Rosa since 1984 so was very much aware when they came on the scene in 1997 when it was at Korbel, (it was good), and then they moved nearby in Santa Rosa in 2004. I thought they were not as good and the brewery was...

    Is Vado Smoking Addictive?

    Crooked Goat in Sebastopol was our main mid point stopping destination. On the last ride it was Russian River and Old Possum.
