The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.
We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

On a Saturday ride with the family in law. We just came through Mentone, then hit the GA line. I'll snap a few photos and document the ride while we roll. BTW: the big yardsale thing is going on and we've been crossing it from time to time.

Well we just ran through chicamauga at about 95 because my wife jessi wanted food. We heard for 45 minutes "I'm howngry!"(not sure how to spell how she pronounces it but that's pretty close.) either way here's a quick shot I was able to snap that is almost entirely uninteresting.
And here's where we chose to eat here in Oglethorpe, ga.

FWIW: the shoneys in Oglethorpe didn't even have pie anymore. Not exactly recommended.

12lb. Napolean gun. Good for 1600 yards.
Here's a smaller rifled gun.

This is a ballistics chart from a 12 lb gun. I found it fascinating to think they Could fire a projectile over 1500 yards... Much less a 12 pound steel ball.
Its not a matter of whether or not I get a cannon, but when
And I want one of these
