Just came back from doing a little scouting for CFR 2010 with the BugR the grand rallymaster and saw this thread pop up again. Reread it all just like it was new :clapping: Nakusp will be hard to beat I think but we'll give it a good go! Hope to see all you good folks from the west again...

That's some hike! Where's the respect emoticon when you really need it! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

Steve Sorry to hear about your lay off; several of my family have been in similar situations recently so I have a vague idea of what you are going through. I think James Burnleigh's advice is spot on. Your current job is finding a job and networking, networking, networking is the key! And hey...

Great ride and writeup; thanks for bringing us along! :exhappysmiley:

I'm sorry I've never had a ticket so I can't really help you.... :P though I've always found Vermont a great state to ride in where the people are very aware of riders and the enforcement lenient. If you got a ticket you must have really deserved it! :rolleyes:

Pencil me in for any ride eh? :D

So I am a rider who has ridden long distances in extended rain for weeks on end and my usual gear is first gear overpants and Kilamonjaro jacket with FroggToggs as required. Usually I only wear the upper FroggTogg as the lower seems to stay dry in everything but torrentail downpours. Mine never...

what a great recap. And really, is Jim Owen the only rider to hit the guelph exhibition & bowmanville zoo bonii!!? What a ride! :) Gutsy move to cross border twice for 943 points!

i slip a plastic zip tie underneath and connect it. this allows you to pull up on te nut to get it to engage

have you found a way to do the geophoto tag thingy with a gps?

wow if yo're coming through Ottawa let me know and i'll hook up, do brunch/lunch, compare route notes and ride west with you through some local twisties on the way west. also I have a great B&B to recommend you stay at in SSM. great rates/accn (blue room is fine) and a GREAT breakfast...

hey good stuff; thanks for the original fix 03HiYoSilver !

When i went to CFR recently and about day 3 of heavy rain my check engine light came and I rode for 20-30 min until I got to civilization somewhere and pulled over and stopped. Restarted the bike and the light went away never to be seen again. I meant to check it but forgot until now. The diag...

started a seperate thread...

wow you did Denali by air; deep envy :D Sorry to hear about your mechanical problems. will this affect your ferry down i forget are you coming back down the Inside Passage by ferry or overland? oh we really need more air pics.

and that my friends is a "capote" :)

I have a nuvi550 that i used during cfr (21 days rain with occasional sun). It is waterproof and you can use it with rain mitts on. ;) I found it a bit difficult to use it in bright sun with polarize sunglasses glasses and if i had the energy i would make a little sunshade for it but it s...

wow you lured Warchild out from under his rock!!! Good one keep it up!

No rush coming home Chris. It's still raining here and will be for the next few weeks! ;)

Great write up. Notice that you removed the centerstand as well. She does look pretty nice naked. Re track days, there are many at Shannonville and at the new track at Calabogie which is proving to be a great local hit. We rode that track a few years ago (before it opened) :rolleyes:
