As much as I love doing wheelies, I think I am going to quit. After doing that same thing on the CR500, I couldn't imagine doing that on my F800!

In watching the video...I believe this is the only course of action. However in clicking on the other links with Wowboyz...

No kidding! Guess I'm getting really old, but that was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.

Just so everyone knows, Supercross starts tonight. Live from Anaheim on speed channel at 6:30pm. Also, stage 2 from the Dakar is on at 11:30pm tonight on the NBC Sports channel. Thats 220 for people with Direct tv.

That is an understatement.

Solid ice on side streets and drives of Moscow. So slick I had to hold onto the pick-up to get my mail. Need 4-wheel drive to get out to the street.

Yeah...no chance of riding for sometime where I live. I'd have to truck or trailer the bike out and then heck, even if I could get down to the valley...I no likey the black icey! What you can't see DEFINITELY can hurt you!

Well, I thought I'd introduce myself, and see what ya'll had to say about my plan to move to Spokane.

My ex has moved to Naples, ID and I gotta be close enough to deal with being a dad to these two rapscallions:



At this time, I've spoken to Lone Wolf Harley Davidson about a job, which is looking good, at least for the riding season. I might be a bit hungry next winter, though.

Meanwhile, I am in need of an abode. I know next to nothing about Spokane, other than it's a reasonable distance to the kids without actually living in the mountains. Any advice? I definitely need a garage/shed for the bikes (a 04 KTM 9-fiddy and a 99 Buell S3T) and whatever tools don't end up at my place of employment.

My budget would be somewhere between cheap and poor, and a short commute is pretty important to me. Years of a 50-mile one way commute has pretty much taught me that my time is worth a lot to me. I'm not willing to burn it up on the freeway, commuting. I'm just looking for something simple/temporary to land in. I'll find a more appropriate kid-friendly place after I get settled in and feel better about the work situation.

Any neighborhoods to avoid in Spokane Valley? How's the commute from, say, CDA or Post Falls?

Thought I'd mention I'd be willing to trade maintenance/repair on a inmate's bike fleet as part of a rent exchange program.... (I'm a certifiable, errr I mean certified motorcycle mechanic)
