I have a firend who works for HP un in the pac-nw.
They have a bunch of cyclists there.
It started with one guy skankin' his bike out, and sort of turned into a workplace competition.

I'll see if I nca get some pix forwarded.
 
OK; here's some pics of the Rat Bike Club.
These are "Level 3 Rats."
There are Level 5 and 6 Rats; your Rat Level is judged by your peers.

Well, I sold my last bike, the Kaw ZRX1100 posted earlier...but I'm kinda passively looking for a bmw r100rt, or r80rt.
If y'all know of such a thing, shoot me a pm!
 
New bike time! A 1995 Yamaha Seca II, aka Diversion 600 in Europe. Nothing special performance-wise, but will do fine for some cafe racing, and I do love the canary yellow color :D

Actually, I wasn't sure if I was going to buy a bike this fall to replace my Kawasaki I sold during the spring, but then I noticed one of these being sold in my home town, and managed to negotiate a very good price over the phone. Yesterday, the owned pulled over at my parents' place, and they signed the papers on my behalf. Still a few weeks til' I can visit them and get the bike, though :hmm:
