    Tag-O-Rama

    I saw two bikes heading the opposite way on pamo rd.... Just in case they were O-raming, post your "evidence" by 9pm Otherwise I will.... Smartphones can make it unfair...
  3. Ok. I've searched panniers and bags... If you can point me to an appropriate thread, Thank you! All I found, was about custom manufactured(in the process of) ones, and all I'm looking for is ... advice/experiences. Also, I just got back from a little weekend excursion, strapping all the needed stuff to my bike... Constantly, reaching behind, checking..if its still there. There must be a better way to haul a tent, mat, sleeping bag, (ok, the chair is a little over the top..for panniers/bags) and wood. It went over the axe, which doubled as heat shield. Food, water, and other heavy items in/on body (read backpack) -hello bikeslut :wave: For now, I am looking for some sorts of saddle bags(I think), since this only happens 4 to 6 times a year. But then, there might be a good reason to have s/th more sturdy. I'm tired, dirty and happy. Go ahead and tell me to just go*gle it... Thanks. Dan.

    Dr650 wiring question

    I used the lic.plate wires to hook my gps to the battery which helped preventing the gps fuse (2Amp)from burning out all the time. --( when wired directly to battery, which also drained it.) trial and error.... dontknow about extras. cheers

  6. Of course I am Not taking anything from State Parks. Except, other peoples trash... They just trimmed some trees behind my house, and I took 3 four foot branches, that I could transport easier and then chope'm'up. Also, thanks for all the input from y'all, and for now I'm gonna try the GL coyote bag. The DirtBagz looked really nice, but that would require some welding in order to make the ... the... I'll call it: the bag holding frame-for now, work. (BTW, I like welding.) If I dont like the GL, you'll find it in the SDAR-CL Section. Thanks again, Dan.

    Otay Track

    Don't know if it is the same track, but upon getting lost... around Otay, (future jokes posted by others --- inserted here... ) Looking from above:(sorry, got my bike in the picture...[tag-o-rama reference] After meeting manager... real nice guy..(name forgotten_starts with a J or G..) ... He will "babysit" your kids (10 and older), if you'd forgotten the key to your own bike... Apparently they will allow larger groups to camp/toy haul/5th wheel, etc .. out there,starting in March. ... BTW, only if well behaved.. like your dog(s), and kids, and drunks, obviously. Probably wifes too.. dunno. Don't tell me his name was John... I think, I could have remembered that!! Will try to pinpoint location from GPS, or on the web on next post.
  9. Thanks for your input.: 1. Is taken care of, because 2. is now in the front. 3.is being installed with the 17" tube as well as (5.) the rimlock. 4. will happen tomorrow during reinstall. Nice of you to confirm - I always thought the word was spongy.... - the thing about my forks. -have the oil, hope the springs aren't worn out. -But I'm still keeping an eye out for a good priced younger bike, with all the goodies, that have advanced in the past 25 years. I still think you should've accepted that Samitch Da
