    Waterproof Gloves

    Held Air and Dry gloves - love them. They are 2 gloves in 1. Put your hand in 1 side and you have good air flow. Put you hand in on the other side and you have a warm and dry glove. Never had any issue with hands getting wet.

    Tire Change in Denver

    What I ended doing is removing the front wheel and brought it to Performance Cycle. They opened at 9:00 and I was there when they opened and back out the door with a new tire mounted by 9:30.    Great service and nice product selection in the store. I wish there was a store like this where I live.

    Indianaplois Area Tire Change

    I ended up going to Cycle Outfitters on the south side of Indianapolis. I brought in the bike and it was $90 for rear tire and $80 for the front tire. I carried in my own tires. Was happy with their service.

    Indianaplois Area Tire Change

    I recently moved to Indianapolis (south side - just north of Greenwood) from Minneapolis. My FJR is soon going to need a new set of tires mounted which I already have. Looking for suggestions of places in my area that will be willing to mount my tires for a reasonable price. Thanks!

    Anyone with Personal Experience Doing a Moto-Charlie Tour?

    I would say there were several factors: Anytime you are riding in a group, the mileage is less than an individual - gas stops, lunch stops, etc. just all take longer Roads - some of the back roads we were on were only a little more than 1 vehicle wide. This along with the winding roads limits...
