Guys Pay Attention!
What are you getting your significant other for Christmas? Haven’t really thought about it? Perhaps you should… Or this could happen to you! http://bewareofthedoghouse.com/video.aspx
Fat Boy
I knew I shouldn’t have gone back for seconds yesterday!
This Is Too Weird
This is wrong on so many levels….
Getting My Man Castle In Order
The past several weeks I have been paying a great deal of attention to the way other men organize their “man castles,” and have discovered most men don’t! The majority of garages I have seen, are piled full of bicycles, garden hoses, and electrical cords, intertwined throughout last years holiday decorations, and the missing sockets you always need, but fail to find.
I unfortunately, am not blessed with a large garage (no jokes!) so it needs to be as efficient as possible. It’s not that I am anal about organization, for me, it is a simple matter of function.
The impetus for ordering my garage aright, is not altogether my idea, in fact, it isn’t my doing at all. But rather a powerful suggestion from a sexy woman, with dark curly hair, who wants to park “her vehicle” in the garage this winter!
So I have been talking with friends, scouring the Internet, looking at magazines, all in the hopes of having that perfect garage. I sure could use some advice! Help!
Top 10 Reasons BMW Riders Don’t Wave Back
From time to time I like to take humorous pot shots at all you Harley Dudes and Dudettes, and for the most part, you get the joke! Today, I turn my attention some of those pretentious pricks who ride BMW’s and don’t wave back when greeted by other riders. Although I ride a BMW R1100RT, and enjoy it immensely, I find it hard to stomach the amount of arrogance I sometimes see from my BMW family. If you happen to pass a BMW rider on the road and they refuse to wave back, here’s a list of possible reasons…
Top 10 Reasons BWM Riders Don’t Wave Back
10 - New Aerostitch suit too stiff
9 - Removing hands from bars is considered “Bad Form”
8 - Shoulder is too stiff from camping on the ground the night before
7 - Too sore from an 800 mile day on a stock “Comfort” seat
6 - Too busy programming the GPS, monitoring radar, listening to IPOD, XM or talking on cell phone
5 - He’s an Iron Butt rider and you’re not
4 - Wires from the Gerbings are too short
3 - You’re not riding the right kind of BMW
2 - You haven’t been properly introduced
1 - Afraid it might be mistaken as a friendly gesture
All I Want For Christmas…
I realize many of you like to get your Christmas shopping completed early, so here’s a few things on my list. Cash is also appreciated. 
BMW Watch $199 (a bargain)
Coolmax hood $22 (a great value)
Cup holder $153 (a freakin’ rip off)
By the way; have I mentioned that your site is my all time favorite!
Rotten Banana’s and Hard Bags
Most days I take my lunch to work. Most days I forget the containers at work. Then my wife complains that the “Cool Whip” bowls are missing and I am shamed into bringing them home. So after arriving to work on Tuesday morning, I crammed all of the empty bowls, forks, spoons, and a couple plastic bags, into the hard bags of the RT. I found them in there tonight! Now my riding jacket smells of ravioli, and rotten banana’s. Oops!
What’s the worst thing you have left in your bags?
Motorcycle Seats
Today’s motorcycle seats certainly have come a long way. Updates in technology have made them stylish, durable, and comfortable. Still, after logging many miles in the saddle the best of these seats become uncomfortable, which is why thousands of cyclist turn to “add on’s” for extra softness. The most popular types are: gel pads, beaded seats, and sheepskin.
A quick Internet search of these options pulls up thousands of manufacturers declaring their product is the very best when it comes to dispersing the pressure points, and ventilating the riders rear. Prices for these products range from $20.00 to $200. I personally use the Sheep skin pad, it is soft, and keeps the seat cool on hot days, but it also retains a great deal of moisture from the early morning dew, or when that surprising thunderstorm occurs.
The beaded seat by Bead Rider is extremely popular on many of the BMW forums, as well as the one made by Sampson. I have never used a beaded seat so really can’t comment intelligently. When looking for a seat pad keep these things in mind;
1. Durability.
2. Easy on and off. (some are easier to put on, and take off, than others)
3. Price. (expensive doesn’t necessarily mean better)
I would also advise you to ask around, see what others riders in your area are using, and how it is working out for them. What type of add on cushion do you use? Wondering minds want to know!
