The Gist

It's been since March of '22 since the boys have gotten together to talk shop. Fortunately, Greg White is joining them to make things more interesting. Greg bought the latest Suzuki sport tourer, and has plenty to say about it.

But before that, Tim has a lot of new expenses on his kit list. So much so that his "watcha been up to" banter took over 25% of the episode. Christmas comin' up, we figure we'll link y'all to all of it below.

As usual, Robin's traveling. Travis got a great new gig with the Wisconsin DNR. Tim rocked the photographer gig for Wisco's annual Bucky dual sport chaos.

Guest Host

Greg White is one of TRO's favorite guest authors. He's a skilled enthusiast, attending a number of our group motorcycle tours. What's more, the man has a lot of great stories to tell, not the least of which is about his latest motorcycle purchase.

We've changed all member storage over to the JSON format. JSON is the better platform. We're stoked.

Robin noticed a lot of visitors were searching for page-specific content (rather than articles), so the search function is updated to show page results. That means if you forget how to mouse over "Digitools" and select "Suspension Sag Calculator", you can search for it first, then do that same. Good!
