    What are you reading ?

    Given that nice collection of books I figured I should add my favorites that I haven't read in awhile. Note that I'm a nerd and like to read technique books where I might improve my riding. I know lots of peopled don't want to read how to ride books. It works for me. "Total Control: High...

    What are you reading ?

    I've just finished reading about a few of you mentioned in "The Butterfly Route" by Michelle Lamphere. I like the book a lot. She has a some great descriptions of life on the road. Hard part is it makes one wish to quit their job, sell off their "stuff" and go on a world tour. But we...

    Homecoming?

    Recently learned about something called "homecoming". From what we have heard it is a few week period where Newfoundlanders are encouraged to return home to visit (party). Our current plans are to be on the island roughly 7/26-8/4. Are we going to have an extra hard time finding camping...

    Limited number of RTR decals available - 0 remaining.

    If these means there will be another run of these I suspect Skiman10000 and I would love to each buy one. Like he said I would prefer to not cost you any postage and just get them someplace along our route this summer. Assuming we can cross the border into the country in July. It's amazing...

    Ride the Rock stickers.

    Actually that looks like something we would like. We tent and don't need much. Still needing to work out the ferry days, but we expectimg 8 to 10 days to explore as much as we can. So we are likely to be just a night or 2 max. Can we count on the ferry schedule as published? Or should we...

    Yes, we'll be riding up together in July. The current count for our July trip is 5 including my wife Anne.

    Mos Eisley?

    I'll need to check out the sticker inside the top box I trashed in august. Hopefully there is a year on it.

    Mos Eisley?

    I went once to one of the newer oes in VT. At least 10 years ago.

    Ducati Desert X

    It clearly wins with cool dune riding footage. I don't see any V-Strom ads doing that! Honestly I would think it's main competitor is the Honda Africa Twin, and I don't recall them mentioning it. Seems like the Honda has more "features", is likely to be better offroad, and probably more...

    Mos Eisley?

    Sure looks like us. It sure is a small world.

    Ride the Rock stickers.

    Did stickers and shirts ever get made? I would buy one of each and try to pickup in person in July. I should have new Solobox cases arriving next week. They might need a few stickers to keep the dirt at bay.

    Mos Eisley?

    Yes I was there for a few days from 7/5-7/7\ in 2016. Here's my wife at our tent, and a photo of our bikes.

    Thanks. I will post something there to keep it all in one place. Planning on the same ferry, hoping for night but need to synchronize with the schedule. I'm sure we'll plan too much, and need to return again. It's not easy as everyone is still working, so a 2 week vacation isn't as easy as...

    Mos Eisley?

    Thanks for the info. Normally I plan 9 day trips, but I can't fit NL into that, so we're adding the extra week for 16 days total. As with any motorcycle tour everyone says they want to go, but attrition slowly eats away the riders as the kickstands up date approaches. We currently have 2 guys...
