I had a power ranger mate that ended up on one of those type of roads years ago on the way back from Llandovery and knowing its what i ride he said to me i don't know how you ride those roads Fred their busy as fuck and nowhere to pass. I asked what he was doing on there and he replied the main road was closed due to an accident. I replied Duh and walked away lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfalfa Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 43 minutes ago, XTreme said: You got an XT660 with you Rick? We took a guided tour from EpicoMoto (Ricardo and Alejandro are great peeps!) and his main stable includes several XT660s. He has a BMW 800GS, and some others. But, the trip we took was mostly off road so the Yammy's were perfect! For the ride pictured, our buddy Dennis was in Colombia on his GS, ridden down from California, for a group called Motorrad Angels. Tom Palmer created the group and he decided to retire and ride around the world. To make it even more worthwhile, he delivers water filters to villages, wherever they go. All donations go straight to buying the filters, Tom finances everything else. They've responded to the earthquake in Mexico City a couple of years ago, as well as on Puerto Rico, delivery water filters and solar lights after that hurricane wiped out electricity in most places. He also helps groups set up their own local chapter of the Angels. The last big effort they were involved in was aiding the Venezuelan refugees flooding into Colombia. Ferrying doctors to the border, providing shelter, clean water, shoes and bus trips back to other shelters. If you are of the donating types, your money goes a long way with that group. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the truck's speed we were all lucky to see him in time, even when we were watching for just such a thing.

Pedro Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I used to put a little bit of tape over the camera’s microphone hole, worked great for buffeting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tym Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 This go pro is weird @Pedro, its in a freaking waterproof case, how wind noise is even a problem in the first place is odd, anywho, i had a great idea, seemed to work, only to find out: Amazon already bootlegged my idea and sells it for pennies! My R and D is already about $4, inventory costs are up to about $2 now...im out of business before i started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
