    Canadian Dollars

    I have not seen this discussed but for us Southeners, should we convert US $'s to Cn $'s before we get there or just use a combination of US $'s and credit cards? This part is more difficult. If we should convert, would $300 - $400 be enough to cover most circumstances for our stay there or...

    Goose Bay, Labrador in July

    I didn't want to detract from the Nova Scotia topic and have looked and found nothing on Goose Bay. Has anyone gone there and what are your comments on riding to there after Nova Scotia. Appears to be about a 1,000 miles. When I was in the military it was always joked about as being synonymous...

    Life after a BMW

    A neighbor of mine just got rid of his GS1150 because of a new child coming and this is what he got. The green one in the middle on the top banner. I haven't had a chance to talk to him about it yet but it is licensed as a Motorcyle, at least here in Kansas. It has a single front wheel and two...

    Hooterville/Bonne Terre to EOM

    Just spoke to Smitty and we need to plan on where we will spend Thursday night and get our rooms reserved. Probably Lexington, KY but more likely Owingsville, KY. Smitty mentioned that Indiana Tom, hope I got that right, would like to join us and these would be somewhat logical places for him...

    Sending Streets & Trips maps via e-mail

    I am trying to send an S & T map to some of our guys and am not having much luck. It appears that from S & T you "Send to - as picture" This takes you to Outlook which should be fine but I have not activated Outlook for my e-mail service and it just sits there. Any hints so that I can send these...

    Angels over Kansas City - as in Blue

    The Blue Angels are perfoming here this weekend and they are out practicing right now. It is amazing to watch these guys going over residential areas not a whole lot higher than roof top.

    Height Of Stupidity

    I was at a stop light an hour ago in somewhat heavy Kansas City traffic. In front of me is a large Harley with all of the touring windscreens etc. The guy pulls out his cellphone and makes a call, the light changes and he lays it down between his legs. As soon as he is moving he picks it up and...
