That's it. I'm getting on Google earth and finding the least direct route home. On my way in this morning my clutch hand totally cramped up through Holliston (cagers all want to let each other merge, and all that results is more traffic), then I got stuck behind a semi hauling granite curbing (uphill), then I met a freight train in Framingham and the commuter line 200 yds later. 15 miles in 45 minutes, and that was comparatively fast... Aargh.

Any suggestions on how to get from Framingham (Paramount HD area) to Bellingham on roads with passing stripes? Or better yet, no striping?

Scotty_j, you need a Muller Power Clutch. That was the best thing that I ever put in my bike. It will reduce the clutch effort by a third and will feel much better.

Eh, I need a route home that has a lower stoplight-to- mileage ratio.

And with my wife in another country I get plenty of wrist exercise...

Bwah!

I don't exactly know the facts but.The stock arm puts the cable tangent to the outlet.Seems to me that increasing the arm length puts the cable beyond the point of tangency and "could" chafe the cable at the outlet on the primary.Just my thoughts,then again i'm anti-modification

You KNOW I'm in. I don't know how it's looking down your way, but I've got intermittent rain in Framingham right now.

Sunday for me; I'm taking my Mom-in-law for a ride on Saturday as a Mom's day present, if she ever gets back to me.

Sunday, 10am, Lowell's?
Eboo?
Nate?
JP?
People I haven't met yet?

Nah,it's not our "problem",but she was GONE.
I'm attending al-anon to try and deal with her recurring alcoholism.Apparently,metering out,uhh,punishment doesn't work.And i do not wish any more nights in the can.Al-anon will hopefully help me properly respond to her unacceptable behavior.I was...going to another tonight but,a neighbor and friends just moments ago approached me about mountainbiking Acadia management area this afternoon,then pizzas.I'm GOING...to take care of ME first.Nate,are you in for tomorrow? Jim?


Who is in for Lowell's tomorrow morning?

You know that I am up for it. The girlfriend wants to enjoy Mother's day together, but I'm sure I can break away for a few hours.

The guy who owns that Lightning at Weir House lives in Fall River. I've talked to him before and told him about this site. He works in the area I think.

You can usually find me just over the bridge from weir pizza at the Atlantic Cafe. I park out front, stop by if you see me there.

Rt 140 on the Hopedale/Bellingham line:

495 North, exit 17 (rt 140, west). Stay with 140 (it turns left at the signal in Bellingham common, just past Domino's. It's about 1.5 miles down on the left.

Lowells Restaurant.kmz (1.2 k)


There may be a more fun route, But I don't know it. Ducxl?
