From what I have read, this thing eats batteries, like in 3 or 4 days, so guess I will invest in some AA lithium batteries. It has a USB connection but for firmware upgrades, they missed the boat by not making a connection for keeping it powered by the bike.

That test run around the lake, did not finish properly. I stopped the track, should have sent a message after stopping back home and then stopped the track. Oh well, that is what the test run is for I reckon.

REM, when I start going too slow and showing not much movement, I may shut it off so my wife will not think I am just goofing off.

Prepared to launch in the morning. Just need to either get some more bungies or toss some junk that will not fit in the panniers.

What a coincidence!! I was in Clayton NM and left yesterday for home. I wish we could have met up. It would have been nice to meet you.

When I left Eagles Nest and got on 58, the wind started blowing and did not quit until I got home. At a number of points I thought it was going to blow be into the next lane. It was strong.

Have a safe trip to Whitehorse..

Yep, that would have been cool.

I'm in Radium Hot Springs for the night heading through Banff National park tomorrow taking HWY 16 north to Prince George. Is that David's route?

Think he is going up 5 to 24and then 97 to 100 Mile house. That is on the way to Prince George I believe. If 5 is open he will continue up to 16l and then over to Prince George. You may run into each other then.

Dease Lake on 37. Rained all day. Saw several bears but it would be easier to get a picture of Sasquach. Single lane temp bridge into Stewert on 37A. Think I passed the new one coming in on a flatbed. :)

Where are you Limey?
