    The Resident I'm really enjoying as some of the treatments are in the experimental stages but making people aware of them...sickle cell being one. Also Emily VanCamp the main lead and a lovely girl was actually pregnant while filming. Brings the real life in.....very much enjoying the series...

    America's Cup 37

    Bag one of our America's Cup model - grinder and moves the sails - clever Lego. This is the base it sits on and you crank the sails from via pneumatic tubes. It's well thought out. Took about an hour and that was just a nice amount of time for one segment. Just under 1,000 pcs. Much fun...

    Itchy Boots goes Vintage

    There were not a lot of gadgets on the 250 and 300 Hondas. The motors pretty much bulletproof...hers started even after being dumped upside down in an African river....took a while and bit of work but it did start. I assume her new ride is Fi? Ah wait ...she has a choke so no.

    Iron Butt routes

    I do as well when I need to get to interesting roads...the Burgman 650 was wonderful for zoning out, listening to an audiobook...not as comfortable as your new beast but the Daylong made it very tolerable. Shane you reminded my of a group ride to the east ...the daughter of one of the riders...

    Ride Report - 2024 Nouveaux Angleterre et Gaspe

    I agree with Gaspé if you had to choose but both seems worth the effort. Nice to hear it is newly paved. Cabot Trail covers geographic features ranging from near Tundra on the north coast to a Carolinian Forest 1,000 km north of the norm. The Island is actually a broken off part of South Africa...

    Rising prices/labour

    Was thinking that (y) though per another thread I'm not sure it is spot on. Be interested to hear Brians thoughts on plug changes since he has MT 330 variant. Part of my rant is the shop rate tho I support paying people a living wage which is done reasonable well in Australia. I can see paying...

    Rising prices/labour

    I remember when tires were $89 each.. Not any more. ..now $200 and up for 140/70-17 Labour at my motorcycle shop is now $120 an hour. So to get to the spark plugs it is 1/2 hour removing the plastics. 5 minutes to remove old plugs and replace them....the plugs are $8.50 each. Then another 1/2...

    Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

    Baching it overnight as partner away dog sitting. Getting opportunity to sort through some of the motorcycle gear I brought last year. Since it is getting warm thought I would try the Thor armoured shirts the kid and I had. He of course looked much better in his but at least with my 44 lb drop...

    MacDoc's new ride 2018 MT03 ends with 2017 GS310 loaded mebbe?

    So reattached the rear magnet.on the tank bag....will let it sit in the hot temps today. I just need to be careful taking both front and rear of the bag off. For fueling I can just tip the bag up after releasing the rear magnet gently - I used to be able to be rough with the magnets....new ones...

    MacDoc's new ride 2018 MT03 ends with 2017 GS310 loaded mebbe?

    Front one is fine and actally the adhesive did not hold on the magnet rather than not holding on the tank...that should be fixable. Security strap is looped around the phone mount so easy on off. The tank bag was heavily loaded for its size.

    MacDoc's new ride 2018 MT03 ends with 2017 GS310 loaded mebbe?

    Well the rear magnet let go of the tank....stayed with the tank bag....that adhesive not correct for the material. Glad I had the security strap on tho the front magnet was holding. The rear one was in place on the fillup on the way here. :unsure:

    Ride Report - 2024 Nouveaux Angleterre et Gaspe

    Wonderful write up and great memories for me riding a fair amount of that route with my son. Even the rain brought up memories of shivering on the ferry from the north coast - no heat and we were soaked...12c and pouring ....Kenz insisted on go-karting. :rolleyes: Being in full mcycle gear was...
