    I dropped her again.

    Those u-turns will surprise you every time! Something I do fairly often is take some time and practice them. This goes back to when I was teaching MSF. I used my FJR and my HD softtail to demo the exercises (taught on base, no MSF trainer bikes provided for that scenario). In an empty...

    Raven17 - good catch; I am able to leave the registration open for the banquet until Monday - Monday is when I need to provide the headcount guarantee to the hotel for the meal. That said, most of the time, I can add guests to the meal count until the day before the banquet on a case by case...

    Great Question - I'll try to explain. The single zip file that can be downloaded from the EOM website (here) contains a single compressed GPX file. A GPX file is the commonly used map / route format by Garmin GPS products (Garmin Zumo, etc). That single GPX file contains the 6 routes that...

    Thank you for sharing. I met Jay and Sharon at EOM many moons ago. Sorry to here about the current situation - I've reached out to Sharon in hopes of being able to make a contribution to the cause on behalf of the 2022 FJR Eastern Owners Meet.
