Anywhere I am riding is my favorite, as long as I am riding.

Have you tried to log out? There's ads that only guests can view. And they vary on the threads and posts. I got a kick out of the ads on this thread - various Japanese ads when I saw. They seem to change from time to time. Someone in Switzerland may put job offering.

I like the Forum's decent design concept, though - we members are not bothered by ads unless we want to view them.

I do not have any pictures, YET. I have only had the bike since January and riding and taking pictures at same time (a little difficult). I do not have a camera setup on the bike. However, I will start taking my dig. camera with me and take some pictures. Some of you might be surprised by some of the scenery in little ole Indiana.

Hi, David!
Indiana!! Would LOVE to see pics!
I've never been there, so I'll be looking forward to your pics!

BTW, I don't think any of us are taking pics while riding.
In my case, I ride, stop my bike, get off, enjoy the scenery, then take pics, get on my bike again and ride on.

Too dangerous to ride AND use the camera at the same time!

Ooops, unless you're talking about movies. Then I know some people have mounts on their bikes to mount the camera and shoot while riding.

That's one of my favorite road signs - snakes on the road.

First ride with the guy next door this year on my default route.
Probably the MCJ members are fed up with the pic of Mt. Fuji and the ST ....

Not me Samurai...I enjoy seeing both.

I took out a 250 for a great ride just yesterday. What a load of fun it was too. The darned thing is more than 200 pounds lighter than my M50 and is great for whipping through turns.

Thanks Bill. Let me echo what you've said "Great for whipping through turns" I've enjoyed the steep grade twisties - 18% (10 degree incline) from the top to the bottom. The other way round is a bit too tough for my little toy. Almost no traffic on weekdays but looks like this road gets very busy on weekends.

Now THAt must be a blood type difference.

Kay = blood type B (doesn't seem to worry even in a situation that better be worried.)
Samurai = Umm.....A, maybe? (A types tend to worry over things that B types never even think about.)
