Taking care of fellow motorcyclists, it's one of the best parts of what we do. Thanks for helping them out!!

My time in Cow Hamster (NH) was, at the time, very libertarianic. My time in Californicated is much less so. Too many restrictions on my Constitutional freedoms. Not happy about that.

Enjoy Idaho, ya mile-muncher!! :D

Well, that antenna takedown happened on the 14th, rusted to hell & gone, parts falling off, etc. We were able to collapse the mast into itself and cut the rotation motor off. Nobody got hurt, everything got done in an hour of focused effort. One of the guys is a professional welder and showed...

I think that map is from the BMW Connected app. Get a newer BMW and enjoy the digital wave! :D

Enjoy Idaho! I hear it's kinda like California, but with more freedom(s). And snow. Lots of snow... ;-)

Was there a convo with the RT rider about the ADV1?

Ixnay onay theay ocketray auncherlay! 🤣🤣 Dogs are never a problem, they were fun. Please let me know if you're going to fit a bicycle on the trailer, I've got a Trek road-bike that might fit, just worried about stability. I didn't bring the ABUS hasp and lock from Amazon but it should fit...

Well, I made the moderately exhausting trip over the Rt 92 San Mateo bridge** on Thursday to visit Tony, his lovely SO, & dogs to check fitment & finer details of his ADV1. Good thing I brought some Deschutes Black Butte Porter for us, so the recovery period was brief!! Side note - the AltRider...

Both the bike AND the field of flowers are lovely!! :D (Insert Wizard of Oz "Poppies, poppies.... snore" joke)

Just call me Wiley E. Coyote, Super-Genius! :D

PDF printed and going into my "PASQ ADV1 Trailer" 3-ring binder. Not that I'm excessively detail oriented or compulsively orderly, I just have too much other stuff going on to lose track of all the things... Initiating freakout in 5... 4... 3... 2... :D

Here's a link to the photographer's library, Tony's bike & ADV1 are there, albeit abbreviated. https://dashedyellowline.com/2025/04/20/chasing-sunlight-on-easter-morning/#jp-carousel-22380

Maybe I missed it, but is there a way to determine how much sag there should be per 10# or whatever? Tony says he's going to add a gauge to the fill valve to determine what works best for his setup, can a gauge be added to each ADV1?

You can probably get a "Chill Vest" at MC shops for about $30. Put it in a gallon ziploc bag, fill it with water, place it in the refrigerator overnight, and put it on when you get hot. It'll cool down your core within minutes. When you start to bake again, rinse & repeat. Works like a champ...

I made a donation of moto gear to Two Wheel Safety Training for students that have insufficient equipment.

Timesavers & reduction in the amount of swearing, cursing, imprecations at various stages & individuals is alway appreciated... :D

This is one area where I differ from Tony, God bless & keep him. As an Army guy who dealt with weapons & sensitive items and an IT guy who had to keep employee records with SSNs & such, I would swap out that combination lock with a padlock & hasp. A Junkunc American series lock would be my...

Excellent, thanks! Ordered, now I'm just waiting for the ADV1 to show up on my doorstep. :D

You don't stop at STOP signs, do ya? :D
