I got a Firebolt a year ago and just signed on to BadWeB yesterday. I'm looking for Buellers in the Des Moines area to compare notes, find twisties. This weekend's Wx looks good. Send a PM |

The way we're having floods and the way our soil is eroding away, we just might erode down to sea level by the end of the century. I don't know if I can wait that long. There are curvaceous roads in northeast Iowa and that area was an inland sea 290 million years ago. But that ancient oceanfront is a little too far away for a Sunday ride. I like your thinking tho. Even though Buellerific roads are far and few between in Iowa, I still enjoy living in the great potato state. |

I worked in Cedar Rapids a while back, and I seem to remember some hills around there - and where there are hills, there are usually twists. Am I remembering right, or is my dementia getting the best of me? |

I worked in Cedar Rapids a while back, and I seem to remember some hills around there... You're right. just 15 minute east of CR, it gets hilly. Sometime this summer, I hope to make it to Iowa's hill country so I can show my Firebolt how roads are supposed to be built. As best as I can tell, your dementia is normal However, should you want to get rid of it, just hit the reset button. |

northeast corner here this is the best riding in iowa I once went thru Dundee quite a while ago. I remember no cops to complain about the broken muffler on my truck and no stop lights...pretty nice from that perspective. I liked the broad main street too. I might send you a PM in the event I'll be riding in your neighborhood. |

Hey, I ride thru Dundee a lot on my way to the river, you should holler as I go by. Better yet, pm your contact info & I'll look you up next time by (if this snow ever quits). |
