    Riding Down Under - Tropical Cairns Australia

    Glad you are continuing to enjoy your time there this year. We will be heading home from Gold Coast in another 8 days. Next year we plan on flying to Cairns, renting a car and taking a 7-14 day drive down to Gold Coast where once again we'll stay for 5 weeks. (Or maybe we'll drive from Brisbane...

    Can't answer that till Spring, as mine is in the boat, which is shrink wrapped for the winter.

    Yup. Does a fine job on the seams of the canvas of my boat. Over time the seams start to leak so I spray them with the sealer. Like I said, it does the trick.. just fine. I use the spray version in a pump spray bottle.

    Go to a marine store (chandlery), found at most large marinas, and buy the spray or brush on stuff for boat tops/canvas. Will do the trick.

    Breakfast north of Barrie near the 400?

    There is a Harveys right off the highway if that is what you are in to.

    Default touring photo width is too narrow

    I agree. Current size is fine by me.

    GREAT presentation by Gene and Neda tonight!!!! They covered so many aspects of their three year and counting journey. Living the life!!! My only regret was that I could not stay till the end. It was tough to get up when I had to leave. Thanks to both of you for sharing in this way!

    Touring tips - the little things

    When my former buddy was healthy enough to go on weeklong trips, I'd use the ear plugs for sleeping at night due to his wicked snoring.

    Where are you headed in 2015?

    Since my travelling buddy is no longer able to do long rides, I'll be lucky if I get to ride around the block a few times. His daily dialysis prevents him from doing more than a short day ride. Might end up doing something solo in early May, maybe down into West Virginia again.

    Peruvian pan flutes in Portugal? We had a flashback to the last place we were in South America! The guy is still here, still blowing, still wearing the same shirt! This was yesterday. Sorry we couldn't hook up with you when you were here.

    The probe should also not be in direct sunlight.

    Many Sportster riders on forum?

    I've had two Hondas, two Suzukis, one Yamaha and two Harleys. I put more miles/kms on the Harleys than the other bikes combined, and the Harleys were the only bikes that did NOT need repairs. (Or leak oil). It seems people just can't update their opinions of the quality from the Harley AMF...

    Toronto to Los Angeles

    I agree with BeastieGirl ... Nevada in particular will be MORE THAN BRUTAL. Las Vegas in August can reach 115 degrees F. Ask me how I know.

    You see the strangest things!

    Riding the Blue Ridge Parkway back in the mid '80s ... a rattle snake slithering across the road. Had to turn around and go back for another look.

    Where have you ridden the last few weeks? Anything Interesting.

    Unfortunately I have been able to do very little riding this summer. Last week I did manage a three hour ride from the cottage to Cookstown Outlet Mall and back. (The upside is that I purchased a Fossil watch at 40% off) I hope everyone else can do better than that. (The riding, not the watch!)

    Forever Map - offline/online and routing

    Just so I understand... If I download the app over wifi and fire it up (on wifi) thus downloading all the world maps (over wifi), in the future I'll never be downloading any maps over cellular. Correct?
