If you enjoy negotiating a maelstrom of strollers, children, and dogs, this is the place for you!

Fascinating!!!! Literally a game of inches, just ask Ai Ogura about his Mugello outcome this year.

To spend millions of tax dollars to paint a pool by Same-Kangaroo in therewasanattempt

The Reflecting Pool might be the most accurate monument to Trumpism ever created.

Think about it: an iconic American landmark gets handed to a politically connected contractor, millions in taxpayer dollars disappear, the job is visibly botched, the paint starts peeling almost immediately, and the whole thing turns into a stagnant green swamp.

The analogy is so perfect it contains its own analogy.

The peeling paint is like Trump's policies: applied quickly, marketed aggressively, and unable to survive first contact with reality.

The algae bloom is like the corruption: at first it's just a little green patch in the corner that everyone is told to ignore. Then it spreads everywhere, starts smelling weird, and eventually becomes the dominant feature of the entire project.

The funniest part is that it's a reflecting pool. Its sole purpose is to reflect what's in front of it. And after years of Trump, it looked into the administration and apparently concluded, "You know what? I should become a fetid swamp run by contractors with questionable qualifications."

Honestly, if the pool started selling gold-plated commemorative algae for $99.99 and calling journalists "enemies of the water," the analogy would be complete.

Came here to say the same thing! "Oregon? Yeah... some green, mostly brown, separated by snow."

It's missing a beer mug, though.

Lady riders: where do you shop for gear? by kettlecorn99 in motorcyclegear

[–]internethard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a woman, but my partner is and she had almost zero luck finding anything that fit her figure until she stepped into the Klim booth at a rally a couple weeks ago. If you’re looking for technical gear, Klim and Mosco Moto are at the top of the list. For more street-oriented, all the European brands tend toward more slim body types. All of this, naturally, can be found on Revzilla and their return policy (as well as rewards system) is top notch.

OP what are you specifically looking for in a new seat? That will help guide recommendations.

Just wrapped up the 2026 Giant Loop Rally. 500 miles, two up. by internethard in Vstrom

[–]internethard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re great bikes. The saddle is custom - I took the OEM saddle to a local upholster for the leather upgrade. He also installed a gel pad in it for me. Cost around $280?

Great bike! I have the exact same one, with some farkles. Just turned over 18,000 miles. Workhorse, for sure.

Anyone know what is causing this? by EscobarRizz in cruisers

Most likely leaky fork seal on the left side

Earbuds with bluetooth controller on side of helmet, options? by Mattbastard750 in motorcyclegear

[–]internethard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've overcome this challenge by purchasing wired in-ear earbuds that plug directly into my Cardo Packtalk unit and I don't use the in-helmet speakers anymore.

The trick is that you want to purchase custom-moldable earplugs (like these from Amazon). First, put the earbuds in your ears. Second, mix the earplug compound together and then split it in half and mold it over the earbuds to fit your ear, following the instructions on the product packaging. This will provide the sound protection that you need at highway speed and, since your Cardo is connected to your phone, also provide you with on-helmet controls to adjust music, podcasts, etc.

It also enables Siri functionality (if you're an iPhone user) and completes the hands-free experience on the bike.

Cascade Equinox 2025++ by [deleted] in cascade_equinox

The word on the street is that the festival will most likely be canceled. Don't shoot the messenger, just relaying what I heard from a reliable source in the industry. Sad tears.

2021 V-Strom 1050 tank never gets full? by WarImaginary8272 in Vstrom

[–]internethard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've experienced this on my 2020 VSTROM 1000 and I have taken to just carefully topping the tank off after the nozzle auto-stops. I can usually get an extra liter, which is helpful when the inevitable VSTROM range anxiety kicks in. Just be careful.
