That hasn't been a problem so far. Most times I am using the flag it's during a PGR escort mission at fairly low speeds. Any thing over 8 MPH and the flag stands straight out so the brake light is un-obstructed. Never had a complaint from another rider about not seeing the brake light. -
I welded up a bracket that sandwiches between the ball and stinger for my hitch. The tube has a nut welded into the bottom that my fiberglass flagpole screws into. I use 2 turnbuckles a caribiner (sp) and tarp clamp to attach the pole to the helmet locks. I have had this setup up to 70 mph with no problem, finding a flag that won't shred at the ends at that speed is another problem I haven't solved yet. I plan to weld 2 more pipes on the bracket, one on each side splayed to the side to hold 2 more flags. Once that's done I'll get it chromed.

Good to hear he's mending quickly. Free range doesn't sound good for anybody but the ranchers.

We did a PGR Funeral and escort today, 97 sunny degrees it was worse than the Mission a few years ago when it was -5 with a wind chill of -25 and a blinding blizzard I froze 12 bottles of water solid and they completely melted within 10 minutes of taking them out of the cooler! Drank every one of them.

Annie, When you get home you may want to check this place out. Watch this powerpoint presentation I have. It won't attach through the board here (most likely to large a file, PM me your email address and I'll sent it to you . Jay

Larry, I don't know how big the trailer is you are pulling but if you decide to take 212 over the Beartooth be sure you have the power to get up there and the breaking to get down the other side. You don't have to go over the top though, there is a road (don't recall the name) just south of Red Lodge that will take you to cody. Be very careful on 212 ( DO THE SPEED LIMIT OR LESS) especially at dawn & dusk, the deer are everywhere. BRIGHT LIGHTS AT NIGHT!!! That's the road I was riding last year when I hit that deer, just north of Red Lodge! Watch for Wayne's house on 212 near Roberts Mt. A log home with a BIG red barn attached. He has an old M-37 army truck out by the road advertising his machine shop. Stop in and tell him Jay & Jeannie said Hi. Wayne is an excellent mechanic and fabricator if anyone needs something repaired. Plus he knows the Beartooth like the back of his hand, I'm sure he could be talked into riding BT Have a Fun and safe trip Jay

Hopefully the computers are back up and running at the border, they were down the other day and there was a 4 hour wait to get into Windsor .

Sorry to hear you lost a friend today. Dogs in Heaven Author Earl Hamner An old man and his dog were walking down this dirt road with fences on both sides, they came to a gate in the fence and looked in, it was nice - grassy, woody areas, just what a 'huntin' dog and man would like, but, it had a sign saying 'no trespassing' so they walked on. They came to a beautiful gate with a person in white robes standing there. "Welcome to Heaven" he said. The old man was happy and started in with his dog following him. The gatekeeper stopped him. "Dogs aren't allowed, I'm sorry but he can't come with you." "What kind of Heaven won't allow dogs? If He can't come in, then I will stay out with him. He's been my faithful companion all his life, I can't desert him now. " "Suit yourself, but I have to warn you, the Devil's on this road and he'll try to sweet talk you into his area, he'll promise you anything, but, the dog can't go there either. If you won't leave the dog, you'll spend Eternity on this road " So the old man and dog went on. They came to a rundown fence with a gap in it, no gate, just a hole. Another old man was inside. "Scuse me Sir, my dog and I are getting mighty tired, mind if we come in and sit in the shade for awhile?" "Of course, there's some cold water under that tree over there. Make yourselves comfortable " "You're sure my dog can come in? The man down the road said dogs weren't allowed anywhere." "Would you come in if you had to leave the dog?" " No sir, that's why I didn't go to Heaven, he said the dog couldn't come in. We'll be spending Eternity on this road, and a glass of cold water and some shade would be mighty fine right about now. But, I won't come in if my buddy here can't come too, and that's final. " The man smiled a big smile and said "Welcome to Heaven." "You mean this is Heaven? Dogs ARE allowed? How come that fellow down the road said they weren't?" "That was the Devil and he gets all the people who are willing to give up a life long companion for a comfortable place to stay. They soon find out their mistake, but, then it's too late. The dogs come here, the fickle people stay there. GOD wouldn't allow dogs to be banned from Heaven. After all, HE created them to be man's companions in life, why would he separate them in death?"

How'd you get off that sticky seat to snap that pic ? Now that you got it, here's the one I got.

Sorry, but Bullwinkle said to leave his buddy alone !

I got my hands on an old emac 6.4 computer running OSX 10.4.11 that I want to set up for a 5 year old and I'm having a hard time finding educational software that will run on this old platform. If anyone has software for an old Mac OS gathering dust in a box somewhere I'd be interested in it. Thanks for looking.

It's possible that the owners toxic emissions are breaking down the material composition of the effected seating! A change of dietary intake may solve this problem.

I got the target today but I'll give others a chance to get into the action. Don't wait to long though or I'll be sending you on another wild goose chase !

I was going to say, the truck on the left looks drive-able from the limited view we have. These 2 were at a local cruise. They were actually crafted really well. The one on the left had no floor, the seats were old cast iron tractor seats perched on cross stringers hung from the frame rails with expanded metal for foot rests.

Good news indeed. Before you know it you'll be back riding. -

I need to put one of those in me limo golf cart!

Post it up and let the peanut gallery decide.

Looks like fun. Reminds me of the MSF beginners class

What's the hold up? Are there no car shows anywhere else in the country?
-
I like the concept, but, if it won't push the wind over the backseat driver then it wouldn't go on my ride. 13.5" would be borderline. Can you use rain-x on it without problems?

You need to tell Deb to quit hitting you in the same spot all the time

So... ya got a new car ! What's that got to do with the Goldwing you are going to get?
