    Thanks to Doug Chapman

    Thanks guys, appreciate the thoughts.  It's really been no trouble, for the most part, since the beginning when slapnpop moved to WA from NC and the forum moved with him.

    Paul was one of the first in. Don't remember who was last in before penalty started. All riders checked in by 9:45pm tonight, several into the penalty window.

    Linda and I will be leaving for Kennewick in a few hours for early evening check-in. Some riders are close enough to get there ahead of me. Testament to Jeff's rally design that riders are scattered far and wide on the first leg. Interesting to watch. Sidenote: The fjrforum computer at 1G...

    Pictures of Tank bags on FJR

    I had the magnetic version of the Eclipse Elite bag and it went for years and over 100K miles. Bought it at a moto show in Seattle and cannot say anything bad about it.

    Thanks. That makes EL stand right out riding a great first leg. That personal rider code of bonus waypoints being discussed will include as much data as possible to be easily recognizable as to access, restrictions, and value.

    First leg, biding her time, well within striking distance. JO is going to have to be beaten though, he won't give it away. Lotta fresh smiling faces at the checkpoint.

    As they have been in many other rallies over the years. I totalled my '03 in '04 with 48k on the clock off pavement in a well known rally. I considered the FJR to be the best handling road bike I'd ever ridden in the dirt.
