    Yea, medium to medium fast...but a tiny bit slower on the really tight corners due to my limited lean.

    Fall Gap Trip 2016

    Ibuprofen. 600 mg starting first thing Saturday, then every 6 hours for the rest of the trip. Bicycle shorts under your stuff. The extra padding and compression helps a TON. Move around as much as you can. I know your options are limited but even little movements help a ton. Move foward and back on the seat, move your feet...heels on the pegs..toes. Do it often, every 15 minutes or so. Also stand up on your pegs if you can....... We won't be going that fast on the freeway Saturday. That stretch of 81 is HIGH enforcement. I will be surprised if you can't keep up with me on 2 lane, I am fast but that bike of yours will move along real well. Dan was able to keep up with me with his China bike and that is a 250. I had him on the straights but he could carry way more speed in the corners.
  3. Woo, thanks for the reminder. Greg Norman helped me out of a sand trap on the south course at Firestone once. Forgot about that one.
  4. No, don't think Castro was ever there. Although it was pretty close to Cuba. It was a small private island in the Bahamas that he was given by one of the dudes that financed the Watergate break in.
  5. I'm not. But I am a fan of hanging with 'famous' peeps. Partied for a few days with Pink Floyd. Had drinks with Cyndi Lauper, saved Tiny Tim's life. Watched Morrissey save my kids life. And my favorite...took a piss in Richard Nixon's bathroom.
  6. .... @Casper and I will be hanging and partying with Wu Tang Clan. And yes I mean in their hotel room with groupies and booze and drugs and stuff. Yes, we will be posting pics. No this isn't a 'Ride'. But the forum title is 'Rides and Events'. This will most certainly be an Event.

    BTW, I got a Sena now. So be warned, if anyone tries to pair with me I will shoot them. I know a lot of you have Sena's so instead of carrying my usual 5 shot 38 I will be carrying my 16 shot FN 45. With an extra clip.

    Yea, rarely does it import the first time from Google to Sygic correctly. Always a few minor changes....I just add a few more waypoints to google and do it again. Sometimes it can be a bit of a PITA, and I have had to split one of my Colorado routes into to 2 parts because Google has a limit to the number of waypoints.

    That meta data file sounds like the file it uses as you navigate.. It tracks your progress so you can exit the app at lunch time, start it back up and pick up where you left off. Are you sure you are putting the files in the right place? On (vastly superior) Android it is \Sygic\Res\itinerary

    I wonder if the apple version uses something besides itf. Make a route in Sygic and save it, then take a look at it and see if it is itn.

    Starting to sound like when you create them with ITN they are not properly encoded for IOS/Sygic to recognize them as valid Sygic files.

    Sygic works just fine. I got 10s of thousands of miles on it. Dead Steve Jobs just doesn't trust you to copy files over. Security over usability in this case.

    You can also put Sygic on an iPad, make the maps manually with the Ipad by dragging the route lines and save them to the iCloud, then they will iSync to your iPhone and theoretically iWork.

    Sell the Garmin and buy a used Android on Swappa. Should have plenty of money left to buy Sygic again for Android. Just run it off WiFi. At least that way you will have one device that isn't useless. Lots of Androids are waterproof too that should be a treat for you.
  15. Sorry gang, I am out. Grandpa stuff to do. Someone is going to have to step up and lead my group, it has 6 peeps in it.

    People that are going should consider two things. If you sleep until ten you should expect to ride in the dark at the end of the day. And it will be cold in the mornings. Low 50's for sure.

    Go to the store, add Supporter to your cart, go to check out. There should be an option there to use your points to pay for it. That is how I understand it is supposed to work, I can't test it because I already have Support so I can't add it to my cart to be sure. You have 33K points, it costs 10K per year so you are golden for a long time.
