This is a Kawasaki Ninja 250 that HapaD mentioned in his comments to the post about the Hyosung Comet 250.
I’ve heard mostly bad things about this bike (The Comet) stateside. People purchase it with vital components missing, it gives a lot of false neutrals and is a little heavy for a 250. ninja is the way to go. Can’t argue with the time tested kawi enjine.

The following may be effective in measuring your Google page rank penalty.
Here’s how we found it …….
A little while back the page rank on one of our sites was reduced from 4 to 3. Not a huge deal as did not seem that SERPs were affected.
We had hoped the PR would move up to 5 because of all the new links we had garnered, but perhaps we’d lost some also. Or perhaps we’d been penalized along with a number of other sites who saw an artifical drop.
There was no way to tell and no point in losing too much sleep over it.
Some time after, our article directory, was shut down by the hosting company for using too much MSQL resources. Continue Reading »

Its been a while (8 years) since Robyn and I have been mountain biking. While we did buy bikes for the boys, we have until now been without wheels.
Saw a good deal on some end of season Avanti Hammer Disc at the local Avanti dealer, so decided to take the plunge and get some wheels for both of us.
Compared to previous bikes we have owned, these are great to ride. The disk breaks, good quality gearing and lightweight components make it really easy to take on the hills. Continue Reading »

Was looking at Amazon the other day and found the Garmin Nuvi 350 pocket vehicle navigator. Looks like a neat package.
It comes included with the usual street maps, a points of interest (POIs) database with hotels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs etc.
You simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, and nüvi takes you there with 2D or 3D maps and turn-by-turn voice directions.
It will announce the name of exits and streets so you never have to take your eyes off the road.
In addition, nüvi 350 accepts custom points of interest (POIs), such as school zones and safety cameras and lets you set proximity alerts to warn you of upcoming POIs. Continue Reading »
