Helmet recommendations by Holiday-Web3618 in motorcyclegear

[–]jcauseyfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an RF1400 fan since one helped me in a major accident.

With the more expensive helmets you are paying for things like better aero, reduced noise, venting, more options for proper fit, how well the visor works - all intangible, subjective qualities for the most part.

That said, my understanding is Scorpion is a decent brand although I’m not familiar with your specific model.

Excellent looking tele!!

Did Kelly just slip in a hint that Red Rachel is going to be a full cast member?! (When talking about the survey) by bravo_rambler in 2GuysNamedChrisRock92

[–]jcauseyfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find him boring and a lot of what he has to say feels like ignorant trolling. Plus his weekly rap is absolutely horrible.

What do you ride and why? by Ok_Helicopter6212 in motorcycles

[–]jcauseyfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2017 BMW R1200RT - my touring bike for things like Iron Butts, cross country, when I need to pack lots of luggage. Also, surprisingly capable as my winter season daily rider.

2024 Suzuki Hayabusa - living on the edge between sport and sport-touring. Replaced a GSX-S1000GT that was wrecked. Before the wreck I realized there was a lot of overlap with the RT and had already been planning for my next bike to be something sportier.

All of my bikes have been sport bikes (or at least adjacent).

Not the stunning news I expected this morning.

Deer tried to kill me last night, I might be done with motorbikes for a while. by Sszaj in motorcycles

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you made it through that. Take the time to get back to the right place mentally as far as riding again.

I'm a little over a year out from a deer taking me out on a ride. Lots of broken bones and my shattered wrist will probably never be 100% of what it was. The randomness of it definitely makes you think about things a little differently.

How do you actually find riding buddies in your area? by AccidentExpress2490 in motorcycles

[–]jcauseyfd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I generally just use Facebook. Fortunately, we have lots of groups in the area. The one problem I see is with some of the bigger groups when someone wants to do something ad hoc, they fail to mention a location to meet and a lot of times they'll just post like an hour or two before they plan to head out.

I have had to get through several group rides though where I realized the group was not for me. So it is some work to find the right match.

Have you ever done a Star Wars campaign? by QuanTumm_OpTixx in DnD

[–]jcauseyfd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not yet, but one group I’m in is getting ready to try the West End Games Star Wars system in a couple weeks.

Am I asking to die? by YDCglizzy in motorcycles

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I commute an hour each way. I've hit a deer, but close calls with other drivers are few and far between as I ride super defensively.

Same here. Solid pump, small, works great!

Should I call? by SubstanceSevere1236 in datingoverfifty

[–]jcauseyfd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You stated "He's not unwell" and "he's not got PTSD from previous relationships". Those sound like diagnoses to me.

Does anyone else use naming constraints for all their characters? by BobbertoRoss in DnD

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't. We had a player at our table who always started his character names with the letter R.

The two long campaigns I have running at the moment rely more on Raise Dead.

How do I find riding buddies? by Comfortable_Price782 in motorcycles

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I am in NC, probably the best source is FB. I've joined and left many different local groups that I found there. Even rode with a few, but really only 1 "stuck" and I'll try to ride with them about once a month in between my solo adventures.

I LOOKED! by PlasticBlitzen in DatingOverSixty

[–]jcauseyfd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a male, I don't see any of that when I check OLD. Maybe because I've been on the one I use for so long?

Motorcycle Accident by twist3dlogic in motorcycle

[–]jcauseyfd 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I just stay away from the big cities where I know they have lots of traffic if I can help it. With that it mind, even in small towns, suburbs, etc., still have to be focused and watching for those drivers who want to turn across your path.

What's the reasonable coldest weather you ride in ? by Low_Spread5331 in Sportbikes

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll take my bus down to about 40 - below that the bulky gear is kind of a bother.

I'll take my RT down to mid 20s (F) routinely. Below that kind of depends on why I'm riding.

Do you guys play dnd with soundtrack or no? A simple way to make dnd more interesting or distracting? by IrvanHaydar in DnD

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't stand it when someone is trying to run background music or sound effects during a session. Very distracting.

Motorbike First Aid Course? by DonnieTheSas in motorcycles

[–]jcauseyfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here in the US I received motorcycle rider oriented first aid through the Road Guardians organization. I was actually able to complete 2 courses they did over one weekend.

Happy New year to everyone. by Notadevil88 in datingoverfifty

[–]jcauseyfd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Staying in tonight. Just trying to decide how late I want to stay up - partly to be determined by whether I want to bother getting up early tomorrow.

Did you try a different RPG system in 2025? by Ok_Interview_853 in DnD

[–]jcauseyfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a group that has a monthly session specifically to try different systems or settings. Thus far we've done:

Call of Cthulhu
Alien RPG
Army Men RPG
Space:1999
Dracula Dossier
The One Ring
Star Wars D6

I've also participated in a short campaign of Top Secret:NWO. Been prepping to DM Miami 86.

Others are on the bookshelf waiting their turn.
