Yeah, keep assuming that anyone not drinking the obama/pelosi/DNC cool-aid is an un-educated hill-billy.........and everyone that's attending the "town hall" meetings (the real ones, not the obama/SEIU union love fest) are all planted there, or are "wing nuts". Keep believing that, 'cause there's a groundswell building like this nation hasn't seen in generations. The "glitteratti's" game is gonna end real soon, and there's gonna be a boatload of over-educated, under experienced, carreer politicians looking for a new job.

Yeah, not since the KKK stood up against those awefull feds. It's still a nation of idiots mitigated by the sensible majority.

You just wait until we get those Kenyan based death panels up and running, then you will be sorry!
Hey "speedy" COUNT THE RINGS ya little bitch, THEN tell us where to put it!...............I'm waiting.........................

PS 'course it's kinda hard to get too wound up with stick ' ball games, when ya live in the middle of the BEST riding in the world........how's the winter riding in your parts?
hey rockhead, when you stop riding your gay scooter around the foo-foo hills of your wet & cold city, you might want to read the football stats for Brett...you're just butt-hurt because your team hasn't produced shiite since Montana.
As for the winter riding here, it's New England moron, it snows & freezes here duh, do you need a weather proximity lesson? My bike hibernates while I go out skiing & snowboarding!
Don't get into the stick and ball stuff since I was a kid. As Hemmingway once said. "there is only 3 TRUE sports, mountain climbing, bullfighting and motorcycle racing, everything else is just a game.............."
And "speedy" I live in the "Bay Area" NOT S.F. (and because you've obviously never been away from home overnight, lemme explain to you that Northern California probably has the BEST riding weather AND roads in the world.) Good try though, go back to pounding snow son. (maybe you could even go shirtless to the next sub-zero game and jump up and down for the cameras while body painted like yer favorite team, while the rest of the world laughs at you!)

San Fran is one of the most incredible cities I have ever lived in... & I have been around the world... if I only had $700,000 for that 600 sq foot mansion I would be drinking some anchor steam right now
S.F. the home of Anchor Steam, thanks to Fritz Maytag for bailing 'em out back in the day.........

Yeah wasn't Hemmingway a drunk too As for me not ever being away from home overnight, you are speaking out your ass and looking like a fool, how do you know where I've been? I've driven back & forth across this great nation 6 times, and have been in 40 states so far, lived in England and South Africa, and visited numerous international cities and I'm not even close to being done yet, bitch! FYI I have flown into Oakland, not much of a stay, just picking up an aircraft to ferry it back to AZ, but I agree that the coastline down to L.A. was amazing, and wished I had my RC instead for the trip down Rt 1. However, it is still only your opinion that your neck of the woods has the best wx & roads, but in fact the city voted every year for the best weather is San Clemente. As for the best roads, yeah you just keep thinking that, I'm sure there are thousands of riders out there that'll disagree with you on that...BTW seen the thead in STREET & TRACK with the pics of the Alps, that's Europe not California by the way, just in case you're geographically challenged Maybe you've heard of Deals Gap, a nice little road network down southeast, I keep seeing threads on here how great it is but yet have not EVER read one about your area...hmm?
The snow is not here yet, try the weather channel next time or I'll send you some in the mail when it arrives.
Snow?, No problem, 2 hours I'm in Tahoe (heard of it?), Surf? 30 minutes I'm in the Pacific, Maverics if yer up for it.....Desert, 3 hours to the high desert and Willow Springs. Ancient forrests, 30 minutes to Muir Woods and the Giant Redwoods. City life, well what can I say? Tracks, lemme see, Laguna, Infineon, Thunder Hill, Willow Springs, Lodi, Sandhill, I could go on, but I think you get the point. Comparing Northern California (with all it's flaws) with WHEREVER you live for recreation/roads/culture/food/bitches, ANYTHING is gonna be a losing battle for ya pal, but I can understand, like they say, "the best you know, is the best you know.......

I get your point and completely agree, you know what you know, and I bet "your" area is amazing for rides, I'm envious but not jealous. I think we'd all like to explore different curving tarmac just to see.
As for Tahoe, been there, love it. Favourite is Alpine Meadows, that place rocks!!!
Mavericks, fvck NO! I've seen it going full tilt and don't envision myself drowning in triple over-head I'll take Waikiki with head high, 80 degree water with hot Wahine's surfing next to me thanks!
The city? not a huge fan of the lifestyle there now, but I bet it was THE place to live in the 60's & 70's, in fact I love all of Clint's Dirty Harry movies, but the chase scene in McQueens epic film Bullit is the best depiction of the crazy streets of San Fran by far.
