FJR Life: Where Angels Tread
http://fjrlife.blogspot.com/2009/06/where-angels-tread.html
Sport-touring as a way of life. Thursday, June 25, 2009. Continuing along the Crest for another nine or so miles brings you to Newcomb's Ranch Restaurant and Bar. As can be seen in the picture, Newcomb's is a very popular place with the motorcycle set. We spent fifteen minutes just walking along the front looking at the enormous variety of bikes. Inside the eatery was to be found cold soda and the Superbike race on big screens! What a terrific way to spend a Sunday afternoon. All The Gear All The Time.

FJR Life: Spice of Life
http://fjrlife.blogspot.com/2009/07/spice-of-life.html
Sport-touring as a way of life. Monday, July 20, 2009. Variety. What a world we live in that we have the option of hundreds of different makes, models, sizes, shapes, and colors of two-wheeled entertainment! My Dad just bought his first bike: a Yamaha Star-950. And graciously allowed me the opportunity to try it out. Before getting into the meat of this post, allow me to caveat that I am much more of a sport/sport-tourer guy than I am a cruiser guy. But beyond that, I am definitely a motorcycle. What I u...

FJR Life: May 2009
http://fjrlife.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sport-touring as a way of life. Thursday, May 7, 2009. The family went out to dinner last night at a local Italian restaurant, and seated one table away was a motor officer with the California Highway Patrol. I decided to take advantage of this situation and ask for an expert's summary of the laws involving lane splitting. The officer was delighted to help and spent ten minutes educating me on the law:. Because it is only one lane, there is no other lane to split with. It is illegal. Friday, May 1, 2009.

FJR Life: February 2009
http://fjrlife.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Sport-touring as a way of life. Saturday, February 28, 2009. It is a gorgeous 80F day today in Southern California. I rode down to the dealer and had the Battery Tender leads installed, and then rode around the foothills for a while. When I arrived home, I pulled the bags off and took some beauty pics. Enjoy! Friday, February 27, 2009. My first impression was right as they pulled the bike off the truck: it is not. The bike is actually a metallic charcoal color that is absolutely spectacular. And here is ...

FJR Life: Scratch That Itch!
http://fjrlife.blogspot.com/2009/07/scratch-that-itch.html
Sport-touring as a way of life. Thursday, July 16, 2009. I have read many posts recently from motorcyclists who, due to injury, vacation, work, or other interruption, have to take time off of riding. They frequently lament the fact that riding is a crucial part of their lives - one that is sorely missed when absent. I wholeheartedly agree! I find that if more than three days go by without riding, I start really missing it. I am a motorcycle addict. Bah Potholes the size of lunar craters? What I hate most...

FJR Life: One Bear, Two Wheels
http://fjrlife.blogspot.com/2009/05/one-bear-two-wheels.html
Sport-touring as a way of life. Friday, May 1, 2009. One Bear, Two Wheels. I have owned numerous two-wheeled vehicles over the years, and my path to riding a motorcycle as my primary vehicle has been quite an unusual one. I thought it would be interesting to take a trip in the way-back machine and follow my two-wheel evolution:. My entry into high school was accompanied by a brown Schwinn ten-speed bike given to me by my step-father. Sitting perched atop its narrow seat took some getting used to, but...
