Hey everyone! Neato stuff for me, I get to be a moderator! Now I'll have to ask Steve exactly what I'm supposed to do. :laughing
Actually, yeah it keeps me busy, my list of upgrades and updates is rather long, so if I promised to do something on your behalf- bear with me- I'll get to it. Was up till 1am last night upgrading the Calaveras Road (http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/CalaverasRd.htm) page with photos from Mike Leonard (Mcleonard) and Garrett (ysfsofast). And recently added some more pics on the Alpine Road wepage (http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/AlpineRd.htm) (one of my favorites!) by John (john_n). Keep in mind, everytime I do this, I provide a link back to BARF also, so the website also is credited. Currently looking for someone to help me build a Stage Road page (already have all the pics- just need a ride description). Also completed another page written by Jason (Wintermute) & Tyler on Sweetwater Springs Road (http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/SweetwaterSpringsRd.htm) (couple bugs to work out but page look great!).

By now a lot of you are used to me asking permission to use your photos on your rides, however, also keep in mind that I am game to use more text or comments about a particular ride from you also. I also recently put out an offer to create webpages about the motorcycles you ride. (http://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48821) I've only gotten pics from one person- AllyCat, thus far, but several queries. This offer still stands to those of you still interested.

For those of you who are new to motorcycling, or just starting to venture forth on the bike- Sport Touring on a motorcycle is a whole 'nother world than just commuting, tooling around town, or day rides. There's something exciting and unique about 300 mile days, hell, even 500 mile days. Multi-day trips I've always likened to stepping into another world, somehow apart from normal society while riding the motorcycle. Nothing quite like it.

So do those rides, stay safe, wear your gear, and let's hear about those adventures! -Tim

[WickedWahine]

THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

I can't wait to read everyone's adventures and contribute some of my own ;)

[Mokupono]

Sweet! :thumbup

I'm takin' a trip to L.A. next month. Will be looking for some tips on this thread.

Thanks!

[theSteveCo]

Not a bad showing for one day! :teeth

THANK You SteveCo! :Port

Cool forum!

The only overnighter I ever did was to Big Sur and back - a blast. I've done a number of two gas tank days on my ride, but doing multiple days has been pretty much out of the question with the family. Always get the "Why were you gone so long?" question on those days...

Maybe one of these days, I'll get to go to Colorado and back....

Soon I'll post some pics from a trip I took in 88. I went from Chicago to New Foundland. That trip was on a Kaw 750.
:laughing

I'd like to write a story up on the ST also.
She needs some good press;)

D- looking forward to this one, I planned this trip but never made it couple years back- wanted to get as far east as I could and spit into the ocean. :laughing Took the money and bought a British sports car (http://www.pashnit.com/pics/misc/spitfire.jpg) since I didn't have a car for the last few years and wanted to pick up some hot chicks. Shoulda went on the trip. :cool Regretted that one for years! Looking forward to your trip report! Pics?

[DMc]

Yea, I'll have to scan them. I just have slides. The "Newfys" were a trip. Back then MCs were rare on the island. We would roll into a small fishing village and the kids would go nuts. We might as well been martians:laughing

[highlander]

Many thanks for the effort to organze.This should develop into a great forum.
( was it just me or were you guys getting tired of the " He crashed ... she crashed ... rider down " syndrome on the general page )

[Focker]

This should relate nicely to my ST4S and my LT :)
Very cool!
