Massive motorsport fan, mostly GT, Prototypes and somehow still F1 but struggling. Since a few years expanding my interest to motorbike racing, mostly World Superbike and some road racing and MotoGP.

Owner of a Honda CB900F (2002), Yamaha XT250 (1992) and kind of, from my late father, a Harley-Davidson 1200 Electra Glide (1974).

Agoraphobic but you can talk to me, this is the internet and you're not real probably, maybe? ๐Ÿ˜ถ

I'm in the same situation, kind of. Girlfriend can't ride a bicycle and never sat on a motorcycle. We've been planning to go on a ride together for as long as we've been together, almost 2 years but somehow we still haven't managed ๐Ÿ˜…

Same this morning. Accident near Antwerp this morning so traffic jam and even before 7am filtering was too slow for a nice cool. But it was not as bad as it was now ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฅต

Rode from the office to home and I was already puffing by the time I got to the motorcycle parking with my jacket open but in full gear, no helmet, about 50m from the entrance to the office. Arrived home soaking wet.
Same for the visor, only fully closed on the motorway.

The image depicts a gathering of motorcyclists in an outdoor setting, likely at a motorcycle event. In the foreground, several motorcycles are parked, showcasing a variety of models and colors, including black, red, white, and yellow. The motorcycles are arranged in rows, with some facing the camera and others angled away. The ground is paved, and shadows cast by the motorcycles and people suggest it is either early morning or late afternoon.

In the background, a large brick building with arched windows and a sign reading "DREKKER" is visible. The building appears to be a repurposed industrial structure, possibly a former train station or warehouse. Several people are standing and walking around, some engaged in conversation, while others are inspecting the motorcycles.

Kind of a longshot but here goes. We've got a last minute opening for a #motorcycle #volunteer at an overnight event in central #Oregon on June 19-21.

What's involved?

Basically riding your motorcycle back and forth at low speed over a 12-mile route from sunset to sunrise, as Cascade Lakes Relay runners make their way along the (paved) race course overnight. You ride slowly, keep your eyes open, help when needed, pass messages between relay points, and act as a general deterrent to anyone who may want to mess with the runners. We're not cops, we're not medics, we're not Valentino Rossi: we're just highly caffeinated people on bikes, riding slowly, helping out.

Why is it 3 days?

Rested riders are alert riders. Since most of us aren't local to La Pine, the organization gets some motel rooms and we show up Thursday evening, get a good night's sleep, nap and rest and bum around on Friday, and start patrolling at sunset. When we're done at sunrise on Saturday, we grab a nap back at the motel before checkout.

Well this all very interesting. Where do I sign up?

There are registration links here:
eyesonwheels.org/get-involved/

And, of course, feel free to ask me questions.

An adventure-style motorcycle, with metal luggage cases, seen from the rear right side, is parked on an otherwise deserted road. The bike faces toward a sparse forest of ponderosa pine trees outlined by the sunset. On the right-side luggage case is a yellow sign with the words EVENT PATROL on it.

Both motorcycles inspected & relegalized. Final drive is leaking badly on the Ural though. Think/hope itโ€™s just a bad crush washer. Know what Iโ€™m doing when I get home. #motorcycle #Ural #JanusMotorcycles

Niet te vinden helaas. Via artindex.nl/signaturen is "Teijn, A. (Anthonie) van" mijn beste poging.

Decisions, decisions. Ride my before or after washing it? I did the oil change yesterday. Very happy how easy and spill free that is with the . Going to change oil more often, the bike runs sooo smooth again.

Underside of a motorcycle, with an oil drain pan under it. The spent oil filter lies in the drain pan, some tools and gloves in the foreground.
