Stephanie and I both bought new Gopro 12 Blacks recently. They have come a very long way since we had the old GP2s and got rid of them all. The stabilization is amazing. The videos are so smooth and sharp. No need to take phots as well since exporting frames from the videos are very detailed. I...

They are using similar mounts to before, but they have been improved substantially. The clip in mount has a rubber locking mechanism that eliminates the jitter found in the old style. I see the new style in the mounts Bob gave you.

To elaborate on Stephanie’s reply: We went to a lot of trouble trying to get the brake light modules to work for us - mounted them on adjustable platforms under the seats of our Suzukis but no matter what angle we placed them, the lights always flickered or stayed on constantly. They told me our...

I think this filter will work to watch the eclipse on my scope.

I might even have a picture of you and that Quota.

Stephanie and I went 254km today. Lunch in Westport, then on to the Opinicon road, a twisty road Murph might remember from when he was last here.

Another picture from our ride on March 4. This was a very long cargo train, spotted just outside Perth Ontario.

18° C on this fine early March day. Another good day to be riding.

Well this is the earliest we’ve ever ridden in a season, and the warmest start of the season ever for us here near Ottawa. We saw 17° C at one point today. Stephanie and I went for lunch in Westport and coffee at the Bastard Coffee House in Delta.

Probably should have said, I only went about 40km. But they were fun.

I bought this in December from a seller on Facebook Marketplace. Update: Too late - it’s gone. It works perfectly and has the latest firmware and maps installed. The Montana 700 has TopoActive routable maps built in. The device has Bluetooth and WiFI built in and can receive notifications...

It’s not often you get out in February near Ottawa but +3° C on the 12th was too tempting for me.

I find with the zumo, if I want to choose a destination over lunch I just look it up in Garmin Drive and then send it to the XT. No need to remove it from the bike. I have the Touratech mount so it's locked up while I am in restaurants.

I have a Garmin DriveAssist 51, an automotive navigator with a dashcam built in. The battery is at the end of its useful life. When it's not connected to power, the low battery warning comes on after about 5 minutes. I ordered two batteries from sellers on Amazon and both were wrong. One had the...

That's not a great reason for staying in the gps dark ages. You could always sell the mount.

Stephanie’s old Montana 650 started having black lines across the display so she’s been using my Montana recently. But the other day I started wondering what Garmin would do about the display issue. Suffice it to say they don’t fix old Montanas anymore, but they did give us 20% off a new Montana...

Well spotted Dave. That’s what it is.

Another beautiful day to ride in Ontario. Waiting for the Narrows Lock bridge on the Rideau Canal to be free. And motoring right along, following Stephanie.

I'm more concerned about the wiring sitting on the rear exhaust pipe.
