I got the map working. It is in my signature, so I should be able to update it with more info as I go along.

I may have mentioned this in another thread....but I recommend packing Beall's, "I Will Fight No More Forever" in your saddlebag. When you make it to that battlefield in the Montana Bear Paws I think you'll want to read that part describing Chief Joseph's painful decision to finally give it up. His people's defeat, was finally at hand. I understand your admiration of this warrior and leader.....intelligence, loyalty, love of his homelands....

So... at Coffee this morning, the heel on one of my my Motorcycle boots fell off. Now, I have had those boots now for over 40 years and The vast majority I have ridden they have been on my feet, so I got a hammer to bang it back on, then duct tape them up so I could get back to the shop to fix them.... got some shoe goo and ran some wood screws into them ..... from the top down, silly.... and I think they should be good until I can get the heels replaced. .....Just a bit reminiscent of "Harley Davidson & The Marlboro Man", eh?...

Oh no!
Does that mean the Gorilla glue from Sarnia didn't hold??? lol
We are off tomorrow as well on an excursion up Lake Huron and over to Collingwood. Much the same area that you covered coming here.
Cheers and ride safe!
Will be in touch, Terry

Now that I add it up, I actually think I spent more time so far this summer fixing my boots than my Motorcycle....

At least it's cheaper that way.
