    Just Bought my First Motorcycle!

    Thinking back to what Da Nag said about getting the other half to ride, I tried that with my helper but, she said " I'm just happy to be a passenger". I even bought and restored this Yamaha some years back to hopefully teach her. It was perfectly her size. Sadly, I sold the bike to guy who...

    C-Brat makes the news

    I'm shocked. I've travelled the metro Detroit area for years and have never seen an abandoned / derelict boat. I've seen the remnants of 100 year old shipwrecks and unused boats in docks and drydock. I thought you had The Beachcombers over there. Where's Nick and Relic when you need them. Maybe...

    Crazy idea due to high fuel costs

    Between your new dock life and watching motocross on tv, I don't know what I want to do first this spring. Just got 2 inches of snow this morning. :sad BTW, gas is $3.42 today, was $3.55 2 day ago. Normally 20 cents more on the water around here.

    Boat trailer thieft

    Last year, 2 days after bringing my boat home from storage, someone climbed in the back of the camperback and took 2 new led flashlights, a Mag-Lite, and a crappy set of binoculars. About $120 loss. Luckily all of the other electronics have quick disconnet brackets and were in the house. We have...

    Boating as Hobby Expenses ?

    Has anyone figured out a way to deduct their boating expenses as hobby expenses on their federal taxes? Could be a very healthy deduction for most of us.

    Just Bought my First Motorcycle!

    Just a couple more quick thoughts. I've luckily haven't needed the crash bars on the pavement, but at least a dozen times off road. Good investment. Also beware of a website selling knockoff crash bars from China. The people at Happy Trails told me this the last time I ordered from them.

    I'm getting antsy for spring too. I just finished ordering all of the led bulbs for my KLR.

    Don't fish, lots of exploring, Beaver Island is a bit too far offshore for us. The farthest we've been is 10 miles and the water turned rough. Here's the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lijSRhP7JY

    Just Bought my First Motorcycle!

    Well, there is a little bit of nasty language right at the moment I'm lifting the bike up. Sorry. You have to crank up the volume to hear it. If a bike falls in the woods and nobody is there to hear it, why bother yelling about it. It actually didn't hurt falling, only knocked the wind out of me...

    Very classy. I can't make my drywall look that good.

    Crazy idea due to high fuel costs

    I think it's a cool idea. Definitely some shades are needed. We spend a week a year on our 16 with 2 small people and 2 beagles. It's pretty crowded but, if only you, you should be fine. Keep the valuables with you at work. That's living out most of our dreams, only on a smaller scale. And that...
