  1. Just Curious. When I access VR on my cell phone it suggests using tapatalk, but I never do and everything seems to work fine without it. So what is the purpose or advantage of using tapatalk?
  2. Just made my reservations. I am on primitive campground #4

    Carb Sync

    Or for $25 or less depending on whether or not you buy all new material or scavenge material you can do like I did and build something like this. and it works great. FYI it requires no restriction orifices because you dampen pulsations by adjusting the shut off valve connected the cylinder you are checking, the remaining three you leave closed. Plus by using one gauge you do nat have to worry whether or not he gauges are accurately matched. BTW in the pictures I show clear hose I have since switched to black vacuum hose because the clear hose tends to collapse.
  4. Thats right... MD is coming and I wanna make sure I get an extra helping of grub come dinner time.
  5. What is the contact information to make reservations at the campground. I know I saw it somewhere but cannot seem to find it now.
  6. Of course your heart wasn't in it ......We all stole it along time ago.......Right crew.
  7. It is not so much that responsible gun owners are not trusted but more so that they are an easy target for spinless politicians who do not or ever have lived in the real world and tend to cater to the squeaky wheel (narrow minded bleeding hearts) for the sake of acquiring votes. They spent over 5 billion on a gun registry that accomplished nothing, should have realized it would accomplish nothing and should have spent that same money to improving ways of getting at non legal gun owners. Having said that however I do agree that a thorough back ground check should be done before allowing just anyone to own guns. Which our old FAC system already did quite well. But hey news flash nail legal gun owners and illegal ones will fall in line ....NOT.
  8. I think he wanted bike pictures not pictures of the local scrap yard.... :stirthepot: :stirthepot:
  9. At least when things happen with little fellows its cute but not when its not a little fellow. I was out on a service call one time. I was laying under a Western star transport truck, doing some repair work when all of a sudden my back started to feel extremely wet and warm. Turns out the driver of the truck decided he had a full bladder and needed to go pee. As is normal for truck drivers he preceded to use the space between the rear drive tires as his personal urinal, which happened to be uphill from were I was laying under the truck on the paved parking lot. Need I say more, and yes he still lives but only by the shear luck of my showing superior control and restraint.
  10. I saw why why why and I thought you were commemorating the third anniversary of why
  11. Tried the silver star, it was good but not good enough. I switched to the PIAA in 2008 and have run on the same bulb since for 47,000 km. Totally pleased with it.
  12. Ok I don't have problem with that but whos gonna catch me .......OH ROBINNNNNnnnn.....
  13. I use an outbound microlite. Microlites : Microlite Rectangular (7°C, 45°F) . It packs up to about 6.5 inch Dia by 12 inch long. I can pack it my eureka spitfire II tent air mattress cooking stove mess kit and compact lawn chair all in the trunk of my 89 venture, leaving my saddle bags free for tools and clothes. My son also swears by this site when it comes to reviews The Best Backpacking Sleeping Bag - OutdoorGearLab . Also look into military style Bivy Sacks.
  14. Hey Bobby I saw your camera flashing. How about posting some of the pics.
  15. From Animal farm by George Orwell. Little did he know He was actually writing about VR and its strange Characters.
  16. Well despite the weather resulting in some people not being able to show up. There was still a pretty good turn out. 16 people attended bringing with them their happy smiles and good humor. It was great seeing everyone and hopefully everyone arrives home safely. Those who for one reason or another were unable to make it were missed but the year is young and the riding season will soon be upon us. Happy new year to all.
  17. Very sorry to hear that Tooch. I was looking fwd to seeing you folk's. You would think the weather man would have a heart and saved this weather for another day. Unless it was Puc as Carl say's. Knowing that guys pension for messying with stuff he shouldn't, Carl for once in his life is probably right.
  18. Abdul who for many years and up until this year (due to family health reasons) has been a loyal member going under the screen name chabichka, could use our prayers. His wife Shah, (and though he would prefer to keep details private), is not well. So for those of you who believe in prayer please pray for him and Shah. And for those not so inclined please offer your best wishes and support. For those of you who know Abdul and Shah nothing needs to be said and for those of you who do not, I can only say they are are a wonderful couple a pleasure to be around and deserve all the hope and prayer they can get.
  19. Today is the day. Tuckers market place. 6:30 pm. looking fwd to seeing everyone. Here is the address 3110 South Service Road Burlington Ontario L7N 3E9
