    Should Politics and Religion be a separate/isolated forum?

    I don't contribute a lot but I'm an avid reader who is thinks politics should not be in the open forum. I confess that I have made comments in those posts.

    Thumb Throttle Arthritis - Wilderness Energy

    I've been riding my W/E about 1 or 2 hours daily and can't find a good way to operate the thumb throttle without a lot of discomfort.
