    Best place to buy a watch?

    Suunto makes some nice performance/sports watches. Not sure what you're looking for. I've found them at ****'s Sporting Goods, Moosejaw.com, and REI.

    Hey you Atlanta People

    I'm looking at south to north routes through town.... If I want to end up on 400/19 through Northridge/Alpharetta area would it be better to take 285 around the west side of Atlanta (mapping software default), or take 75 through downtown and catch the 400 toll road? If I take the toll road, is...

    Hey you Atlanta People

    Thank you for the reassurance that cutting through downtown would be a viable option. It keeps things simple.

    Hey you Atlanta People

    In June, my brother and I will be heading from the Mobile, AL area to Robbinsville, NC (starting the day in central MS). I hear horror stories about Atlanta traffic. What's the best/fastest way to route through the Atlanta area if we hit the area early afternoon? Thank you, worldbound4now

    Stereo bluetooth for your comm system

    That Kensington option is pretty cool. One limitation that I see is what I found in other products.... there doesn't seem to be an option to use your own external headset with mic.

    Stereo bluetooth for your comm system

    Yes, I am using the BT dongle to eliminate wires needed to connect peripherals. I am still using the traditional headset lead to connect my helmet to the bike. Reading my original post, I can see how this information would have been important. It is quite handy to keep my phone in the...

    Stereo bluetooth for your comm system

    No. The fantastic thing about this device is that the mic is NOT built into the dongle like so many other competing brands. On this model, the mic was built into the headphone/headset that comes with the device. The dongle has a four pole (common ground, mic, left, right) 2.5mm plug which...

    Stereo bluetooth for your comm system

    Over the duration of my 05 ownership, I have also been a happy owner of an Autocom Pro-7 sport communication system (now obsolete). With the creation of new communication devices, I was trying to chase down an easy solution to integrate my phone, and now my GPS device, into my autocom system...

    Now that has got to be the best new product I've seen on this forum for quite some time. I love it!

    Race Tech Gold Valve and spring installation.

    Just a quick, but necessary edit. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the following correction be made to the instruction set? "35. To correctly measure the fluid level extend compress the inner fork tube completely. From the top edge of the fork tube to the fluid level should be 110mm...

    First RIDE! AZ-NV

    Welcome from TX, and you'll love the FJR even more as you stretch it's legs out on roads seemingly made for the FJR. Oh how I miss out and back day trips including heading to Lake Isabella, Mono lake, runs around the Grand Canyon, looping the NV test site, looping through Caliente on into Pine...

    SFO '11

    At the end of SFO last year, mbottoms very clearly was in control of planning out SFO 2011. I know he was exploring new launching locations AND that he, like many of us, is a full-time busy parent, career man, and husband. I'm sure he'd appreciate any help if someone wanted to step up and work...
