I'll be the guy with the grey beard, empty beer glass and chicken wing sauce on my shirt. Looking forward to it...

Hi everyone. I'm new to the group and looking forward to meeting other riders and doing some off road. I just sold the Ducati and bought an '04 1150 GS so I could leave the pavement. Look forward to meeting others here and spinning up some miles together. Cheers, Zubb (Kelly)

Just a reminder, come on over and share a beer. Looking forward to meeting some of you local legends. I think there's at least a couple of us so far. Just for yuks, here's a RR I did from a early summer tour with my dad partially and with my son. It was my last tour on the Duc before I traded her off for the GS. Zubb Fails Again... Cheers,

Just a reminder about getting together with anyone who wants to meet and greet tomorrow, Tuesday at Johnny B's in La Mesa. I cast a little wider net on the invite over HERE .

A dislocated morning ride at corral canyon
Zubb replied to Bp619's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
Just an note of fair warning..... as an ex-ski patroller having witnessed and participated in this several times ..... it's VERY wise to go into emergency as quickly as possible after an event like this. There are small nerves near the socket that can get pinched when it goes back in and can cause permanent damage. Then you might not ever get to ride motorcycle again. Sucky. That's why we have insurance, right? But for BP619 - by now you would probably know if something was wrong in there. Glad you guys were able to figure it out. I've seen more than a few grown men cry during this. (shudder). -

Don't you love it!! Pretty rare to get to ride in conditions like this locally. -
Husqvarna hand axe to match your bike
Zubb replied to Mikey777's topic in Equipment & Technical Forum
I'm all about featherweight gear and minimalist travel and camping. However..... this year I grimaced and hit the 'one-click order' button on Amazon for a boy scout sized axe by Cold Steele. I sharpened it enough to perform surgery and then cut a few inches off the handle so it would barely fit inside my side cases and it's still long enough to get two hands on. It's way too heavy and takes up too much space and I'll never camp/travel without it again. The ability to actually chop enough wood to build a GOOD fire with 1/10th the effort needed using just a hatchet...... priceless. My son mocked me when I pulled it out the first night at camp. A half hour later he had to have one. Bob, your Granfors ..... don't ever let it go. Unless you want to give it to me. Those things rock! -
Good thing I'm in walking distance from Johnny B's. I can tell you guys are gonna be a hoot.

Aint nothin' wrong with Colorado. I spent 8 or 9 years living at 9,000' there. Thought I'd never leave until I met a pretty girl in San Diego. Have a great time. Hopefully you are riding and catching the fall colors. If not, change your plans and ride and catch the fall colors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We can have beer later.

I'll bring the rope

all right. that's it. I'm planning it. Johnny B's, in La Mesa, Tuesday night next week (27th) at 5pm for the 3B's. Beer, Burgers and Bullsh*t. Anyone want to join me there for a meet and greet is welcome. Not a new rider, just new to GS riding from a street background. I see an 'informal rides' thread but not really an 'informal beer' thread. I think I'll post this on the informal ride page and see if anyone's in the mood to meet and greet. I'll likely be looking for a good day ride the weekend after next but that's another topic.

Copper Canyon Nov 5-12
Zubb replied to fudgypup's topic in Upcoming Organized or Promoted Rides and Events
This destination is on my bucket list. Thanks for sharing the vid! I'll probably wait until a group can go independent of the guide company. -
Someone plan this and I will be there! ill be curious to see if any of you were a previous owner of my newtome beast.

I'm so ashamed. Truly. But current funds did not permit the inclusion of a second bike in the garage. And I neeeeeeeed to start GSing. Big plans for next summer and fall with my son (also new to GS land). IDBDR and Alaska are on the horizon for us There will always be an Italian corner in my soul. Hope that by late 2017 I can start looking for a '97-00 900SS. That and the GS 'should' make me a very happy boy.

Good news!! It is sufficiently scarred up as to release me of all guilt when I dump it! And I expect to dump it ?
