  1. Also the wife won a free Fitbit Alta at work so we traded it up to the HR model and I'm going to be doing some extra tracking too.
  2. Well back to work tomorrow so just got back from the store and have my premeasuered out breakfast, lunch and snack portions ready to go for the next six days. Getting back on track.
  3. Unless it's cold rain or cold weather id rather rock the mesh and let the wind dry me out when it stops.
  4. Yea at first I was bummed about not going now I'm kind of glad looking at the radar.
  5. I'm out, going to go visit my friend in the hospital in the morning. Maybe ill squeeze in a afternoon ride.
  6. Same here my paper work is still in the folder @Tonik put together for us when we did the run. Didn't really care if I sent it in. I did it, i know I did it. Didn't need to pay a organization to confirm i did. I might do another one day. One time I did 940 miles of 90% 2 lane twisty roads. I was more proud of that than I was of the 1100 IB
  7. Not sure if I'll make it tomorrow or not. My buddy that had a Stroke earlier in the week might be up for visitors tomorrow and I want to go visit. If he's not up for that yet I'll do the ride.
  8. Mine would probably be the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. Just remember my mom crying and asking the TV why do people keep wanting to kill the President and dad telling us at the dinner table about all the evil people in the world. I would have been about 6.
  9. So if I get this fixed I'm going to buy a donut for the helmet and when it's plugged in it will be upside down. Because when it's plugged in and sitting upright you cannot see the charger cable. Maybe my dumb ass won't do that again
  10. So it didn't work on my bike today but I did have to work on my helmet specifically my Sena 10U. Wednesday when me and the wife left for the bike night and grab my helmet off on my workbench and it was still plugged into the USB charger and I yank the son of a bitch hard. It pulled apart the entire battery pack and charger assembly. I got it the click back together before we left and powered it up and everything seemed to work fine but today when I went to plug it in and charge it it would not charge. So I took it apart to see what was going on and it obviously I had bent the charging port and pulled some terminals out of the circuit board. Did finally get it to charge with a little bit of soldering but not without having a clamp holding it together so thre is still a short some place. Filed a claim with Sena will see if they take care of me or not. Really they don't have to because it was my fault but I hope they do.
  11. I've done a 1100 mile day and several 900 plus mile days. No big deal really you just have to have a plan and do it. Now they guys that do back to back days are a different breed. Not saying I couldn't do it I just wouldn't enjoy it so I won't.
  12. More like three times. Once in Missouri once in Mississippi and once in Pennsylvania. Those three times probably netted less than 150 miles.
  13. Yup but this mutt likes to stay dry. I don't mind getting caught in the rain I'm usually prepared for it but I'm not going to head directly into it. So I'll be a last minute decision in the morning.
  14. 11,000 miles in the books this year and maybe only 300 of that was in the rain. Maybe the dome belongs to me now.
  15. Now the new post are buried in the thread.
  16. DAMN, DAMN, DAMN!!! Kids have a marching band event that Saturday night. Probably end up going on Sunday. Didn't know till the wife just informed me.
