    Going to the Dark Side

    SG, this was my initial feeling as well but my first long ride on the exalto was a rainy one. I found my confidence in the wet to be much higher with the ct (at 31-32psi) and loaded for bear. My guess is that the tire evacuates/displaces water more effectively. Totally agree on the effort...

    Iron Butt Rally Ride Report

    Good job, great ride, very interesting to read of your experience, thanks for posting your story. I can still remember the '07 start when it rained for what seemed like days. Completing an IBR is a life changer!

    Damn. I hope the guy that was on the gulf coast of Tx (and is now in Fla) got some sand on the west coast 'cause he's just about finished a 50cc.

    Excellent pics, Tobie, as per usual btw. Great commentary Dale. Too bad about Eric, hope he can recover enough to continue or at least make it to the finish. Go FJR riders, Matt, Wendy, Chris, et al. Work SUX!

    I see rider numbers have changed again this morning... The video of the entire rally's spot locations should be awesome.

    I'm sitting in the same room with it and it seems a tad slow to me, but no slower than it's been at other high usage times... The new software puts a real load on my sun box at times: 06:58:21PDT load averages: 9.85, 9.77, 8.21 132 processes: 117 sleeping, 11 running, 2 zombie, 2 on cpu...

    Good luck and safe riding to everyone poised at the start. Extra good fortune to the FJR and Tenere riders. Sitting on the same page as many of you I suspect, can hardly wait for the next 11 days action. dougc wishing he was there...

    Going to the Dark Side

    Still working on the rack with my other back rim but those that remain are old and hard as rocks with few miles left. I can't believe it either, DP, economics win this year. Using OC's original brake stay too although I've removed a bunch of metal by "drill press machining".
