I am so sorry @indianajo . We have all benefited from your experience and hope you can hang around and help some others as you have done so often in the past. Thanks.

Too heavy, probably titanium next step.

Yeah, it used to be fun shopping for albums as well. Long ago.

Gotta be able to depend on something, I guess. It's been pissing down here daily in Pennsylvania for about 3 weeks, which sounds pretty normal for the Scots. Rab is just used to it.

Usually it's not even that precise. "Maybe a half day drive" is as accurate as it gets without mapping software.

An old laptop bag works for me. Will post pic.

Check out US health care costs if insured vs uninsured. Not funny, just ironic.

Seems like it would "enhance the experience " of putting the chain back on ... again. ;)
