I printed a flyer but my color cartridge is kaput so the pics are just black and white, your pics on your site are much better anyway. Another GPS question for anyone, I got the hardwi...

Troy, I believe you said you got the RAM mount. Have you found the belt clip button to be sufficient to hold it in the cradle?
It seems to pop in fairly snug, just wondering if anyone uses any extra precautions to hold it in place. Thanks, Dean :?:

I was washing off Monday's dirt at the Car wash in Smithville yesterday and I met a Clay County Park Ranger. His name is Phil and he has a KLR. I gave him the website address. He lives in Belton.

Wow. you guys have been busy. :shock: I took a vacation day today and tomorrow and hope to be riding by midday. The last of my parts showed up this morning just in time. In another 20k or so I may have to start looking for a new one. :?

Thanks to Troy and Safiri I loaded the mapsource topo discs onto my hard drive and have practiced with mapsouce a little bit.

Troy, as far as I know the Brick House is still kicking. I called down there a minute ago and got their recording, closed on sunday. The number is 532-8865. Larry won't be able to make it either, something about a sock drawer in disarray. :wink: I got some of my bike parts but not all. I volunteer f...

Good Luck Chris, and Thanks for coming back for me on the Weston ride. I was a little slow getting going after the stop and followed Cuzin Mike and his Dad not knowing they were heading back to town.
It was nice riding with you, take care of yourself, Dean :wink:

Thanks for the reminder Troy. I just tuned in, If I recall he crashes somewhere in the desert and hurts his arm. :roll:
Started watching the new superman movie at Mike's earlier, lost interest. Seen the human slingshot on break.com? :shock:
Stay warm, Dean

I already installed the trip and waypoint manager. Things are pretty slow at work so after tomorrow I'm taking a v...

Santa brought me a garmin vista 60 CSX, I'm still figuring out what all it does. That darn Troy has one and I have to keep up with the times. The Ozarks fall colors tour has went to a self guided gps format, no more roll charts. :( Cabelas has them for around 380 with a $50 rebate, normal retail pri...
