That was with the Gixxer...not the ape. He learned the first time (you both learned the first time).dufremle wrote:Good thing I won't be there to help you get drunk before you start the oil change.fixxervi6 wrote:planning on doing the oil change on the ape tonight

He learned. I didn't. I would get him drunk again before changing oil.Telomere wrote:That was with the Gixxer...not the ape.

Re: Ride Sunday October 29th
I use a program called Tyre to map the route. It uses the Google API. I use my phone and an app called Copilot for GPS. Tyre will save the files in the format that Copilot can use, so I just load it to the phone and go.
Tyre will convert files to several formats, so when Rick sends me Tom Tom or Garmin files I just load them, then save them as a Copilot file. Works good.

Re: Ride Sunday October 29th
thanks.
Re: Ride Sunday October 29th
If I have a route built in advance I'll usually (when reminded) bounce an electronic copy out to the other RL's, this way if the group gets split or something I'm not worried about it since multiple people will have the route we can hook back up.
