Eagle Rider for Motorcycle Rentals

Turtle,

which is precisely where the wife and I will be going in a couple weeks as part of our Yellowstone tour for our 25th anniversary.

Although im sure you've looked into it, spring for the "America the Beautiful" pass. Well worth the price if you're making more than 2-3 trips to national parks in a year. Have a great time!

Communicating With Dispatch

Old School, it really makes a difference to see the conversation and not just get a paraphrased typed version.

One worry I have as a hopeful student (one day) is walking the line between being a "problem child" and communicating enough. Is there TOO much communication?

Dry Ice?

Only good for frozen food, NOT refrigerated. It will freeze everything in the cooler. Ask me how I learned that one.... confused.gif

Went to burning man a few years back, thought I was ahead of the game using dry ice in my cooler instead. Froze everything lol.

To Ease Your Mind About Winter Driving...

Rainy (and others), this really is a great insight into being the captain of your ship. Thanks!

I have another question though about those phone apps. Is that instead of the Qualcomm or in conjunction with it?

5th wheel pivot point

Thanks guys. Toy truck, got it!

Errol, good video and looks like a good channel. I like that the first 2 minutes is "watch your wagon".

Good thing you say to use a broom, I'll probably have a mess to clean up after trying!

5th wheel pivot point

I have seen multiple times where y'all have recommended getting a toy truck to get the feel of the movement and I've noticed while pulling a pallet jack behind me at work having to turn/back up around aisles and customers that it feels similar. Is that an accurate representation?

If not I'll go back to playing with the toy truck. 😀
