I've got a screen cover that came with my Nikon, you might be able to find something to fit the Fuji. If not you can always get a piece of 3M clear film and cut it to fit the screen. When I don't have the camera on me I keep mine in an older Domke bag but I'm thinking a fitted backpack might be...

I've wondered how those are working out. You missed Lazy Days-although I didn't go downtown as it was too damn hot to hang out on main street without any shade. In case it's been a while, Spin Cycle closed and CSH has a huge place near their old store front. Performance put in a location near...

I had thought of this as well, I could flat tow or even rent a u haul trailer and tow the IIa up there just to save a few hours on the trip and put less strain on her (and me). I figure it would not be cricket to do so and might brand me as "a trailer queen" (gads!). I guess I could scout a...

I was in Cary NC this weekend and went by Cycling Spoken Here. They have a very nice Spot with a belt drive SS set up. Only a couple thousand over what I could spend right now- oh well... A guy can dream ( and save up)

I've been checking out back roads routes and mentally working up a spares check list. When does everyone usually get there?

Hey I gave birth to the least focused bike thread yet-I am so proud! I took Friday off to get some house stuff done and to take a good ride (road). Long story short, I've been off the bike for to long due to a surgery, injury, illness and work. It felt great being back out and I felt every...

Great video-looks like a great time. I love the squirrel on the R/C Defender, my dog would LOVE that.

I saw on the linked site that the MAR organizers are having a community bonfire in the evenings this year. It was mentioned that many requests for a common gathering point were expressed so they will have this.

Brad (Tuscan4R) has been getting some great lightning shots by using a 15 sec exposure, f8 iso 100. He is using a remote shutter release to prevent shake and to be able to kick and enjoy a beer at the same time (I made up the last part but $5 says I'm right:elkgrin:)

Yep ECU I wish I had an OD and I have one on the list of projects, it would make the trip less hectic. Luckily there are not any big projects that need to be done first, just fluids and maybe tweak the timing. It looked like there are some easy trails and I'm really good at spreading BS by a...

I guess I could meet him somewhere along the way-he's well west of me. I'm about 80 miles east of Raleigh right off the Pamlico Sound. I'm guess it would be about a 4 hour trip (IIa time) and I'm sure I could patch together enough 2 lanes. My IIa doesn't have an OD. Is he going?

That looks like a lot of fun, I wonder if the IIa would make it???

Was the stripe more of a black square covering the center portion of the hood? If so might be a Disco XD which was a special edition and also yellow.

Yeah Hot water trumps new camera any day, sorry for the "surprise".

I think you know what I intended but to be sure, when I suggested a higher level body I was trying to convey that it is often better to spend a little more to buy something that will be a ble to grow with you technology wise and has overall better construction and details to prevent you from...

Neat program-thanks for sharing it with us!

That's good to hear. I was scheduled to go to Benin this December to help with a medical mission and was just about to get started on the long list of pills and shots when it got postponed. I've heard the malaria pills have some nasty side effects. I was disapointed as I was wanting to stay a...

That looks like an amazing place. I love how the peak seems to float above the clouds. Any problems with malaria?

No worries, I'd much rather keep a discussion going no matter which direction it takes. If it's not hilly than I can't think of any reason a SS would pose any problems. Good luck on the gift part-just keep dropping hints and if that fails, pitch a loud fit!

Looks pretty simple and robust, two great traits for a commuter. Edmonton is pretty flat, right? The only thing that would give me pause is the steel frame if they use salt on your roads in the winter. If so I'd prefer an aluminium frame but that would not be a major concern and some frame...
