One of the health insurance plans we have is also Aetna.  It is the company  that provides coverage the Alaska Care program for retired employees of the State of Alaska. Never had any indication they will not cover motorcyclists.  It was my primary provider until I became eligible for Medicare...

There are companies that sell health insurance that covers only catastrophic health issues. They do not cover typical health expenses but are designed for events/illness that can be ruinously expensive. I have no personal experience with this sort of policy. They are evidently popular with young...

It is certainly unusual to hear of problems related to a lack of factory lubrication.

Ya, and you expect people to believe a press release from spokesman “Cody Beers”.

I live about 200 miles from the border and have friends in Alberta  that ship stuff to me when they know they are headed down this way.  I guess the rules allow them to bring in up to a certain dollar amount duty free if they are in the US a certain amount of time.

There is no reason not to ship to Canada, Alaska or any other place if the buyer is willing to pay the price. It was frustrating when we lived in Alaska.  Some motorcycle venders would not ship to Alaska at any price.

Riding snogos in Alaska is the thing I miss the most about living there. March is a great time to do it too. Enough light to ride long days and the temperatures have started to climb.  Your SIL has good taste in machines. My SkiDoo was by far my favorite.  Great post.  

Any idea of what was going on? A local kid was known for riding a dirt bike on water. He had a marker buoy attached to the bike so it could be found if it sank, and he wore a life vest.   He still drowned while attempting a night crossing of a local lake.  There was video of him putting on the...

The only real solution is to avoid reading or watching reports about the whatchamacallit and only take your health advice from motorcycle forums.

I am thinking, or at least hoping, that rural, sparsely populated places such as Montana will have some advantages when we are hit full force with the virus.  As of this morning there are 22 reported cases with many more to come.  Montana was able to take some preventative steps much earlier in...

Go to Alaska.  Only about 1.1 person per square mile up there.

Excuse me........

St. Patrick would be ashamed.

Spousal Unit runs vinegar though it every now and then, seems to keep it under control.

We have Samsung washer/dryer as well as a refrigerator.  The washer/dryer have worked well for nearly nine years.  The washer is a front loader and will get mold if the door is not left open when not in use, but that is not uncommon on front loaders.  The refrigerator has been disappointing.  It...

The first race of the 2020 season, the Qatar Grand Prix, is cancelled due to corona virus fears

This is all encouraging, but testing ain't racing.  On several occasions over the past few years races have taken a pattern in which a rider goes in the lead for most of the race only to lose in the last few laps to Marquez; and so it may go this season.  Only Dovi has proven he can once in a...

Okay, there is a new  member of my top ten five brands of whisky.  Macallan 12 Scotch.  Goooood.....

So, Tony, when are you retiring?  Once you do, I imagine you'll able to ride more than 67 days in a year..... 😋

-17 in Tropical Montana this am, real feel is F-ing Cold!.  Only a few days of real cold stuff.  Starts warming up and should see 40 next week.
