FL

Olga the Beemer, tear down.

Paul named her "Olga"which brought the image of an older, Burly, woman to my mind. Well, until I did a Google search.
The lovely Olga Kurylenko
There's some really cool details on these bikes. The factory steering damper is genius, but the hidden cable activated remote front master cylinder is over the top.

Labor Day Ribs

On Saturday I found myself unmotivated to work on bikes, house, or my yard, but I did feel like eating & I have been wanting to do some ribs all summer. My job was the meat, BBQ sauce, & Beer. FYI, It's about a ten beer (4 hour) ordeal as I noticed only two left on Sunday morning, so be prepared. The Ribs recipe I put together from trial and error over the years but the biggest tip I found is you cannot rush them. "Slow & Low that is the tempo".
I picked the Vodka BBQ Sauce recipe for dipping & mopping from the BBQ Pit Boys site Bob had turned me on to. It was OK but I think I'll try some of their other sauce recipes.
The girls made some mac & cheese, spinach/mango salad,the ribs were sweet, delicious, & didn't last long.
It's easy,You do...
