    Cheap/Light MotoJack for trail side repairs....

    He may have been referring to Class 200, not Sch. 120.
  2. A good example of Social Distancing... Keep healthy and keep riding!
  3. We saw fresh road work further down S-2 last week in the Dos Cabesas area.
  4. If I only had my CZ...
  5. Loved riding Canyon Sin Nombre as it was freshly swept and no sign that a road ever existed. Riding up a brand new wash with no tracks, and yet in the Park!

    Time to retire/ride MORE

    Woo Hoo! Now the real work begins...yes Honey...I'll get right on it!
  7. Guess I need to pay my 2020 premium on my Kug sticker...
  8. Yep! At 6:20, if you miss that turn you end up in the rock garden and the riding gets fun! Been there, done that!
  9. Great Viddy Tom! Good to get to know more SDAR riders. Sweeping with Cosmo, LawrenceG and yourself was a breeze. All great and competent riders!
  10. Weekend of the Clubs Desert Dash. Come ride with US.

    Tuscon long shot

    I have a friend that travels to Tuscon area weekly. PM sent.
  12. Phone was in fine shape with 70% battery remaining. I think since it was down the ground it did not have service to be able to use the "find my phone." When I picked it up it had no service, but then connected and I made a call no problem. The Lifeproof phone case did its job.
  13. I'm in with a truck and trailer (20'). Dry camping is fine. Thanks!
  14. A big thanks to Mark for joining me on the ride, otherwise may have not gone solo. So may variables that came together. Very lucky indeed to have it back (I guess I'm not "nameless" any longer). Perseverance paid off. Also found a "Metric" adjustable wrench. We had a tailwind equal to our slow riding speed and our bikes were getting hot (fan running) from no air flow through the radiators. Hence the one big backtrack into the wind to cool them off.
  15. Such a happy guy. Great to have ya both along for the adventure.

    Chris Real on Moto Fuel - Jimmy Lewis TTTT

    https://www.pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=CA will let you know who sells pure gasoline - but check as the website says. Locally it looks like Crown Point Vp Auto Center.
  17. In for a romp. Will there be any hay??

  19. Per this youtube, "You can boost the performance of most any hand held type VHF/UHF radio or hand held scanner radio by adding a counterpoise. This makes up the missing half of the dipole antenna for the radio, giving you a full half wave antenna system." Bags tried a ground to the bike without much success but maybe he was on to this in some fashion. Maybe this Tigertail will help. (I tried to just copy the youtube link, but the whole thing showed up and could not delete - so here it is - if its worth anything... Bp619?? Any other reports on better antennas for the UV/RH?
  20. I'll be in the desert, but with four wheels (FJ). Sorry to miss either. Looking forward to a new year of riding!
