Re: Spot Messenger

Hi Eddie, I don't know much about them but I rode with a guy a couple weeks ago in CO who uses one.

Re: heated grips

I read up on grip heaters a while back. I ended up using some kimpex brand I think were intended for snowmobile use. I built a little box to mount the three position toggle switch in and an indicator light. Most guys say to wire in a relay to cut power to them when the ignition is off. My friend Rok...

Re: BTK Stampede

Sorry to hear of the accident, best wishes for a speedy recovery. I was out in CO and riding and camping at fourmile outside of Buena Vista. There's still 18 feet of snow on Cottonwood and Marshall Pass is still closed mainly to keep it from being rutted up. :wink:

Re: Sunday, May 4th

Thanks for the great ride today, Eddie. I had the shortest day at just over 200 miles. Hope the three of you continued to have a good ride. Here are the few pics I took at the broken bridge and of you and "The Harm" riding. Hope to ride with you guys again. Nope, I think I had the shortest at 180 m...

Re: Sunday, May 4th

Eddie, I'm in but I would rather meet up with you in St Joe. For me going to Plate City is an extra 15 miles plus, I really don't want to ride 40 miles of interstate on my 400. US169 north is just 30 miles for me where it crosses I-29, at exit 44. If, "The Harm" and you leave the QT in Plate City s...

It was great to meet you and congrats again on your retirement. It was very nice of you to share your retirement cake too. I was the fellow who sent the leftover pizza with your cake. I rode almost 100 miles with a guy from Houston on friday, Dr. Blackbird, he wasn't prepared for cool weather, mesh ...

Re: April 3-6, 2008: April Fool's Ride in Arkansas!

It's not sounding too choice, but Devro knows the area well enough to help figure out alternate routes. I think he's spent thirty years as a riverboat captain so he might know a thing or two about water. :wink: I'd really like to see the Warren cabin, but if the creek's flooding it will just have to...

Congrats Troy, I rode with a guy at the ADV Iowa gravel ride who was on a 610. They are beautiful motorcycles and in a very high state of tune. Best wishes to the happy couple. :P
