    Throwback Thursday.

    That wasn't Mongolia, that last pic was rally school in 2011 at Dumont Dunes before I compressed my spine. Plenty of fun.

    What did you do to your bike today?

    That being said there is a small knurled knob behind the throttle that you can tighten to hold the throttle open while cruising.

    2014 R1200GS LC

    Pretty sure the MOA rally is out of the picture, I was in TN in 2019 on my R65. My guess is July of Aug but not sure. I am booked for the HU rally here as well. We'll have to keep in touch to meet up somewhere along the way.

    Tire Changer

    Lyndon Poskitt did a video about doing changes with one. I guess it will work for any wheel dirt or street? I just had tires swapped for the 525 and had the tires taken off the original rims. I still need to get the R100 tires done. It all costs a few bucks.

    Trans-Lab July 2023

    Argentia is far harder to get reservations on. I would certainly book that as far ahead as you can. Maybe get someone else to book a 2nd crossing? Can you swap for different people?

    Anything about Gyms

    I did ballet and jazz back in my highschool days but have not participated in pilates. For me the yoga routines I've tried have seemed to work well to regain little bit of flexibility in my body which was my initial plan.

    Dry Ice Cleaning

    I could see what that could work well but how hard would it be to do on a bike? Where can you find this service?
