Get one Bill..ya know you want to  | ||
| Seanp |
I'll take the one on the right.  | ||
| Outrider |
I'll take either and both at the same time if I ever feel the need for Euthanasia.  So Dyna has my phone number on the back of his "Do not got to Jail" card. Lot of good that will do you, we will probably end up in the same cell. LMAO | ||

Question...Does anyone have space in an Ark I can rent for my worldly possessions? These monsoons are no longer funny. | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
It was great seeing you show up tonight Mike. That place is weird because a lot of bikes dont start rolling in till 10:00 for some reason. Mike trying hid best to hide..he needs to work on it tho My wife telling me to quit taking pics & lets go already Another one for Bomber Three big ole expansion chambers on this little beastie And unfortunately I didnt take any pics of the 75-76 Goldwing cafe racer. | ||
| Mikej |
Yep, that Goldwing was interesting, and the Kawasaki looked like it would be fun to ride, and the tuna sandwich was pretty good as well. Rode home up Brady street, saw exactly two parked motorcycles and one police car. Good to see you and your wife again. | ||
| Bomber |
ooooooo -- cool beans, thanks Dyna | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
It sux that for whatever reason the bikers are basically being run out of their meeting spots. | ||

Mike...Brady St normally looks dead on TWT. It is The Garage on the side street attached to The Hi Hat, that the TWT crowd goes to. If they are no longer involved in TWT, I am shocked. Will check it out with the neighborhood Guzzi Guy. FYI, the TWT crowd usually breaks up by 9:00 PM. Chances are with all the rain we have been having, folks are either out riding, mowing between storms or prepping for Father's Day. Wish I were out riding as the latter two stink. Oh, do I miss condo living. Question...Are there any sport bike hangouts for days other than Tuesday? Would be especially interested in Saturday and Sunday locations that sport riders migrate to. | ||
| Mikej |
I'll let Dyna fill you in on the latest rumblings about Brady street. Sort of an interesting shift in focus. | ||
| Outrider |
Well...I am waiting with Baited Breath. | ||

LMAO...Well, when fishing in the ocean we used anchovies for bait and for some reason I like them on my pizza. Ergo, having "Baited breath" would be a natural thing for me. LOL | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
Pissed off neighbors is basically what happened to the Garage location. Whiney bitches couldnt handle 1 night a week for the riders to gather & have a little social interaction. Maybe the local business owners were threatened as well? You go in there now & they are rather rude to you..weird how it goes from 1 extreme to the other. | ||

I would be interested in a two wheel Tuesday at The Boiler Room but I would need to generate interest and know what they customers would like top see and then see what I could do to meet the needs.I just don't really want a bunch of tank top,short wearing no helmets with sunglasses doing stoppies and wheelies down the street and in my parking lot.Any ideas Dyna??? | ||

Dana...Like they said in Old Rome, "To the Victor, belongs the spoils." Modern day Translation: You may loose for winning. I suggest you take time and visit other TWT and ride-in events, study the crowd and decide what draws them, who gets out of line and how you would improve on the theme. One observation I have made in my travels is that the higher class the host establishment is, the smaller and better behaved the crowd is. Considering the class that The Boiler Room radiates, you should have little or no problems after the first few open events. Other than a big, well lighted parking lot, I would suggest TWT specials concerning drink and food. Quick service and reasonable prices are what the majority that attends these events look for. Other than that, TV's with current bike oriented broadcasts or video's of great (perhaps Historic) races keeps the interest. If you are concerned about the crowd, perhaps limiting those you attract would be good. In the sport bike arena, I have found the V-Twin (BMW's, Buell's, Duc's and Guzzi's) crowd to be the most civilized. Perhaps simply advertising to those clubs and dealers would be a good start. Owners of other bikes that share their interest will follow, but at least they will be relatively conservative and considerate. Good luck!!! | ||

Whoops...Forgot to mention the Brit Bike crowd. They are a great group of enthusiasts as well. | ||
| Bomber |
I'm gonna go find me onea those Vtwin Beemers . . . .that's be cool! | ||
| Crusty |
They are V twins. the angle of the V is 180 degrees. | ||
| Outrider |
Oh Oh...pardon my whoops. At least you knew what I meant. Just be glad I don't work on your bike. LOL | ||
| Outrider |
Hey, What's the angle on a parallel twin??? | ||
| Bomber |
0 degrees or, 360, depending on your faith | ||
| Crusty |
It could be 720° if it's set up as a twingle. | ||
| Bomber |
good point, crusty | ||
| Mikej |
Heh heh, I did a google image search on "twingle" (have to be very very carefull with image searches at work) and came up with the following: http://physiology.usouthal.edu/restore/allstate.htm How about that! | ||
| Mikej |
And this looks like it might be a very interesting place to visit someday: http://www.motorwestmotorcycles.com/index.html (not quite in the greatest of neighborhoods though) edited by mikej on June 17, 2004 | ||
| Outrider |
Would I be correct in assuming that a parallel twin could also be referred to as a "U" Twin? LOL | ||
| R1DynaSquid |
(not quite in the greatest of neighborhoods though) Another masterful understatment. | ||
| Outrider |
You call that a neighborhood? It's a war zone now. About the only thing that would get me down there would be the Motor Works and that is only if they have a product or service I could not get somewhere else. |
