Albert Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I hope there aren't any BRIDGE routes!!! Did Someone Say "Tunnel of Death"? [cue the sinister music] I have it programmed in my gps for the ride home . . . :eek: Link to comment
Kathy R Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Tank bag, where your left hand can get at them. If you are IronButtingIt it hard candy is dandy. No, that's where the granola bars go. I meant the extra granola bars! I'm bringing enough to last a while- I sometimes get a little sugar crashy. The extras are going in the side case, and the I'll refill the tankbag as I eat them. Canteen goes in the glovebox. Wish I had one of those fancy modular helmets where you can drink without taking it off. Maybe if I'm very good I'll get one in a couple months… Here is one solution for your beverage needs while riding: Stop at Walmart and get a water bladder with a hose and bite valve built in. Fill it with ice/water and bungie net it behind you on the passenger seat. Run the hose over your shoulder. If you have such, run the hose up the grmmeted hole on your left chest pocket flap. Stick it under your helmet and bite when thirsty. I think mine cost $14.99 at Wally World Link to comment
SC_SVRider Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 It's been brought to my attention that some of these PDF files have the map view zoomed in to just a small portion of the route. My apologies to folks for cranking them out without bothering to examine the final product. I will put together something better tonight; stay tuned... FYI - The updated (printable) routes are posted on the BRR site now. They can be found HERE . Link to comment

Anyone want me to bring extras?? Link to comment

BUT, I haven't ridden a bike on a normal basis since July 9, only had this one for 2 weeks and this is my first motorcycle trip in 3 months. I'm just excited to be back in the saddle!!

Albert Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Not dorky at all. Even an old fart like me still gets excited the day before leaving. Every time. Link to comment

drjohn Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 GPSBabel is a very good piece of software to translate between different GPS data formats, although it is a command line filter without a graphical interface. See: http://www.gpsbabel.org/ for details and http://www.gpsbabel.org/download.html for downloads. There are windows, Mac, and Linux versions. Link to comment
