Re: Wheel bearing retainer clip...

I didn't see what bike you are working on, I'd have to look at a parts fiche to determine how important that snap ring is. It's probably beefy enough cheap snap ring pliers might have trouble.

Re: Question about riding etiquette

I wouldn't worry about it, you didn't turn off the road and you didn't abandon him. It's a handfull of task juggling to lead, watch the gps, traffic, wildlife and your mirrors.

I've been told a couple from Florida bought it and scrubbed all the patina off. :roll: I did run across a story about the original owner, Buster Hathaway who ran it for 45yrs, he passed away in 1996.
I found another track to add.

Re: Use Basecamp? Beware of losing your data!

Thanks Troy! Wasn't too thrilled about learning basecamp anyway. Nice thing about the Montana is I can copy and paste tracks right to the sd card without using mapsource.


EDIT: CO RR you might enjoy, might be something you missed.. :wink:
