Trans-Siberian Trains traveling across the china/ russia border change out the bogies on the entire train because the tracks are 3" wider.

We used to have an active discussion about coffee machines every six months. This hasn't happened for, umm, twelve months of more.

"Roof girl" is a classic. I don't think that one's been surpassed.

Ironically my company did the first study of the Soviet railway system following the breakup of the Soviet Union. The changing gauges and bogies didn't even began to describe how backward their systems are. Food would rot waiting for the time zone to change. Or a bribe.

We have for sure hit every topic on the Stijn! thread. From hunting pirates to nipple lube but not at the same time.

I remember a thread on Pelican about men's underwear and, the few comments about skid marks.

My favorite thread of them all is the baby poo yellow fence debacle. I sure miss him.

A lot has not been discussed because back in July 2005, the Mod's heavily edited and "closed" the only 2 threads ever started by "farmer"......All comments from mystery man "framer" have been deleted. Very sad day coming up on 13 years ago:

Bill (Sniper) was a classic. Somehow someway he would start and argument.

I though with the introduction of Viagra they didn't use Fluffers anymore.

So can you paint the side panels on a dual sport bike or is it better to wrap them?
