    who else got stuck in a cop roadblock?

    I was stopped one Sunday morning coming off the Dragon and ask if I had been drinking. I replied by saying that I can hardly ride sober much less drunk. He replied by saying see you.

    Am I the Oldest?

    I'm soon to be sixty four. Just got back from 1200 miles in the Alps. Nothing but curves and switchbacks. Old but tough in Tennessee.

    Anyone Have/Had A Scooter? Just Wondering...

    Going way back, a Cushman Eagle w/ about 5 hp, no speed O or tack, rear brake only. Spray painted it a different color every week, had so much paint on it there was no chance of it ever rust. Also no kick stand, just carried a brick in the floor board. Not joking.

    What to wear?

    I'm going to the Alps in June. What type of gear should I bring for a 2 week trip. Can only take 50lbs in my gear bag. Should I take a mesh jacket along with my 3/4 Tourmaster transition jacket? Mesh and cold weather riding pants, winter and summer gloves? Heavy duty rain gear? Advice Please!
