Nice weather this past weekend for exploring the grasslands.

After nearly breaking my leg last weekend, I decided the hard bags are only for commuting and touring. In any situation where I might have to dab, I'm sticking with the Giant Loop bag.

If you're son is 5, c'mon up to North Carolina and we'll get him on my son's CRF50. It's too small for him now.

Ok... I had some trouble getting flight tickets to "Nawph Cackalacky", but finally I did get a pair to Charlotte-NC... I think that's pretty close

See you in 16hrs...

Coming to Charlotte, I'll ride down, it's only a one tank trip, 480 miles, I can stay with my Niece. I may actually be riding through Charlotte in a few weeks

Wow...! it would be great to also meet you Mike overthere, just like that...
And better for Blur, he can deliver me to Canada with you when he feels enough is enough with me...

Anyway, don't be affraid, long rides and flight tickets are temporarily postponed for me, due to my little kids (6 and 5 years old) and to family's budget. I'm in the middle of a standby stage until they grow up a few years, until that time when they don't miss you a bit

. I will then return to long rides, I dream with rides out of LatAm.

Do they mount to the passenger peg brackets?

For the occasional time I need greater range, I'm hesitant to invest in the safari tanks.
