dam you man! lol nice pics looks like fun roads and nice temps for riding. I used to live in nor cal up by willows chico area and the roads up there are the best, but now I live in NJ brick area and not only are the roads strait and flat your not allowed to make left turns. dam it I need to win the lottery so I can move back | ||
| Buell12hundo |
love the smell of pine trees | ||

Not true at all! We have plenty of twisties in Jersey. Mostly chicane turns followed right away by short decreasing radius sweepers. Otherwise known as the "Jug Handle".  If you've never been to Jersey they don't like to allow left turns. Make you go around these little jug handles to the right in order to turn left. I feel for you Hundo. Took me awhile to get used to the area. I spent the last couple weekends up in the mountains around the Delaware Water Gap. Not to shabby at all. Hardly running my boat at all, this Buell is a drug for sure. Back on topic. Looks awesome Koot! I love mountain roads with turns and elevation changes. | ||

I learned to call it home and now the roads are second nature, just wish the mountains pictured above were in our back yard, dam you again hootenay LOL  | ||

Geoff, Don't want to get into a urination contest but I have roads like that, and better, ONE mile from my home ! Tyson, ..and you only have to ride north an hour or so into the Catskills (Message edited by buelluk on July 28, 2005) (Message edited by buelluk on July 28, 2005) | ||

I can't find my pics of my favorite local road. So here's a map of it, Wolf Pen Gap.  There are more good maps of my playground here | ||
| Kootenay |
Buelluk and Glitch, I know there are lots of places with roads as good or better than here--no I don't wanna start a  , I was just looking at some photos I took during some recent rides and felt the desire to share! (and gloat a bit...). Thing is, on this board there is a lot of discussion of performance mods--but I'd rather spend time riding my bike as it is than modding it! Maybe during the winter, but then I'd have to give up skiing time... I'd be interested to see some pics of where all you other guys ride. One question, though--no left turns in Jersey? At all? Hmmm...guess that takes care of the single most common motorcycle collision (car turning left across the rider's path)--or does it? | ||
| Glitch |
Not fighting, only sharing. My pics are all over the BadWeB. Here's some from HWY60 | ||
| Telewoodski |
those are pretty cool roads, check out these: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=driggs+id&spn=2.579399,4.926270&t=h&hl=en | ||

Glitch, sweet profile pic. where'd ya find it?(and do they have firebolts?)  i'm guessing you added the southpark guy. | ||
| Metalstorm |
You should try Nor Cal  | ||
| Newxb9er |
Metalstorm, That's a great ride!! Gotta love pashnit!! Point Reyes on up HWY 1 is great as well!! Plenty of fun roads and great views all over Nor Cal!! | ||
| Kootenay |
Telewoodski--hey, you're from Idaho, we're almost neighbours! (just look north, and a wee bit west) From your user name, I assume you do a bit of tele skiing; I do a bit of that every now and then myself... | ||
| Glitch |
Rubdoggy, It's from a magazine article someone posted last year. There is one of a Firebolt, not quite the same as the one I have, but close. I'll try and find it for you. And yes, I added the South Park guy. | ||
| Glitch |
Rubdoggy, here's the Firebolt.  | ||
| Glitch |
And so to make sure we stay on topic, here's the pic of Wolf Pen Gap I couldn't find yesterday.  | ||
| Dago |
I hate you guys. | ||

I ran Wolf Pen Gap rd. Wednesday and I could swear I got a little queasy, either from the curves, or the excitement, I couldn't tell if it was motion sickness or elation. Most days during the week, there are zero cars on that road. | ||
| Glitch |
You're welcome to visit any time Dago. Think you might make it to March Badness III? | ||
| Dago |
Absolutely! My trailer is finally prepped and ready to go. I can't wait to take it across country, and can't think of a better reason. | ||
| Glitch |
No better reason! Wolf Pen Gap is about 1/8 of a mile from T.W.O., where we hold March Badness. | ||
| Whodom |
March Badness rocks! This year we got to test ride new Buells on highway 60 as seen above. Wonder if we'll get to try the Ully on dirt next year? | ||
| Rubberdown |
We need the Badness more than once a year! | ||
| Clown |
I'm trying to line something up for this fall right now. The new Ulysses will be on the Demo truck. As soon as the first one arrives, I will be in the woods scouting trails for off road demos. | ||

Geoff, Penny and I just got home from a ride to Ontario and back in 10 days. We went out of and back to BC your way, Kaslo/ Crowsnest. Man was nice through there yesterday. Them praries suck! We were short of time or I woulda called and taken you out to lunch. Next time!!! | ||
| Kootenay |
Thanks, Bake. Yeah, the road to Kaslo's sweet (that's my pic #2 above...). Glitch--wow. That Wolf Pen Gap looks great! I also liked the pics you linked to further above. Someday...except that, as Bake says, I'd have to cross a lot of prairie to get there... | ||
| Glitch |
Ya'll are welcome any time! | ||

| Cyko_bob |
Glitch...can you post the pic/drawing of the Lightning without the South Park guy (sorry)? I would like to add it to my collection...or send it to me with a PM. Thanks...Cyko Bob | ||
| Dtx |
Glitch, That rode looks sweet! | ||
| Tbs_stunta |
Do be too impressed with Glitch's pic, that's actually the only real turn on that road.  | ||
