    How's the view from your "Cubicle"?

    Tan, yes, fading fast. Not one drop of rain on my recent trip. Gotta be more than that though the cam's been searching the room and street intermittently for most of the day. dougc

    Mount Washington

    I stayed at the Town and Country Inn in Gorham, NH twice, once last week and once the week before. Rooms are clean and the rates are not bad, I believe it was close to $50/night. Its on US-2 about a half mile east of the NH-16 junction. There is a good restaurant on-site and all the amenities...

    My new rear tire has rotated 12" relative to the rim!

    Hasn't happened to me so far...have changed only 5 FJR rears so far this year but do clean them before levering on new tires. Will be no-marring on a couple of RoadSmarts next week and will watch closely for this during a trip last week of the month. dougc

    Recommend a good dealer in WA or ID?

    I have to agree with Ig on this, for sure. I have a dealer less than a mile and a half from home but I've bought both my '03 and '05 FJRs from Sunnyside/DVPS easily a 4-5 hour drive/ride at 250 miles from me. They've also done my last two valve checks. Dan Denchel and company have proven to...
