I knew Gary, at least enough to watch him fly past me on his Ninja 250 a few times. Went to his memorial service. I'm a maybe for this, I might be committed to taking down a passed-away ham's rather tall antenna assembly up in Richmond that day. Depends on whether I can get some other folks to...

Most secure computer is the one that's completely disconnected from anything, in 9 yards of concrete, at the bottom of the ocean. Kinda hard to use, but it's secure.

Which DGR? I've attended half-a-dozen of Doc's rides/seminars, he's a good guy. Getting up there, tho (yeah, same as me, so...)

When my browser restarts to install security updates, the "Stay logged in" option is worth less than a bucket of warm (spit)... :D

ADVRider's Death Valley Noobs Rally, end of March 2026. I'll presumably see you there with my own ADV1. :D

Yes, "usually". Sometimes it's the forum software that has to be tweaked.

Not a competition... :D

18-pack of what?? :D

Well, I purchased the ADV1 when it was first offered (I'm #5) because it was perfectly suited to my needs, I ordered a pair of Mosko Backcountry panniers when they were offered at a 15% discount, and I'm generally on the lookout for good used gear ($100 for a 3-gallon RotoPax gas can w/mount)...

I'm going to experiment with that, whether it floats negligibly better if the two magazines are loaded. Oh, and I picked up 500 rounds of .22LR, so I'm not loaded for bear... Definitely loaded for empty beer cans, tho.... :D

I'm going to stick with available (Verizon) coverage for my phone & my SpotX GPS beacon. I'm not that worried about trying to keep up with the Kardashians or Bachelor or Tigerman, whatever. My wife was on Jeopardy and we DVR that & the various Nature/NOVA stuff, I'll catch up when I get...

Hey, Rod & Luke! Minor annoyance, but... can the forum software be tweaked to allow the password to be kept in memory/cookies? My passwords are 16-character with caps & specials, and I'd like to NOT have to type it in all the time. Thanks!! Yes, and I admit the possibility of hackableness...

Ride to Chicago, drop off the bike, fly up to Alaska until Rod & Luke are done, return, etc. They don't call me "The Ultimate Trip Planner" for nothing... :D

Raul Julia said it best in "Cannonball Run", "What is behind me is not important!" 😂😂😂 I want the Warthog problem - not over-running my bullets & rockets...

As a long-time Yamaha rider (XS-500B, RD-400F (Daytona Special), XJ-650RJ (Seca 650 three times), I appreciate Yamaha reliability and character. If it hadn't been for that insanely fun BMW K1200R in yellow, I might have never gotten the best-selling adventure bike in the world... :D

Both? Both! 😁😁😁

My lizard brain appreciates the compliment! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Motorcycle Ergonomics isn't current, but I'd love to emulate that sort of graphic calculation to visualize balance points, etc.

I'm pretty sure that's called "value-seeking" behavior and is about the most rational way of behaving. Congrats, you're a canny one!!

Yeah, I'm saving 1827 as my desktop wallpaper, hope you don't mind!! :cool::cool: Rod, I'll take a plethora of pics of mine when it's assembled & such, no worries!! I also appreciate the Molon Labe & Gadsden flag stickers!
