Re: "Hop" in to our Tow'd build.....

So...5 months on...where are you at? Your last post about the ID of the halo tube...measure through a hole in the frame to the inside of the other side with the pointy end of a vernier caliper, should be an easy calculation from there. As our Aussie mate mentioned, adding a braced lower frame tube t...

Re: Manx On The Banx 2016 - Official Thread

Not that you can rely on their info but.... The long range weather shows a mix of sun/cloud with highs in the mid 70s, nights dipping into the low 60s. Only a slight chance of rain....other than our departure Sunday when the forecast says make sure you put your Rainex on! Looking forward to tbe trip...

Re: Manx In The Middle-Official Thread

I can't add to the pictures but I CAN vouch that a good time was had by all at MITM.....well maybe all except Mike Dario :shh: It's a good thing he can take as well as he gives, he really took a beating over the weekend for his buggy breaking down almost within sight of their home shortly after they...

More than gossip....

My grapevine is not always as timely with exciting information as I might like but in this instance I KNOW the rumours are correct as I saw it with my own eyes...er, well, sort of! A picture surfaced of a new Manxster body riding comfortably in the safe confines of an enclosed rental truck, riding o...

Relax Joe....
You're close enough that you don't need to copy Mike and Lori Ann by leaving Saturday, unless you were getting there early to look for the primo parking spot! :mrgreen:
Early bird and worm thing???

Re: how many club members drive offroad or oversand

I believe we have the same unit supplying the air ride bags in our motor home. A bit slow but it has to fill the 2 bags plus the 5 gallon storage tank. From empty to 120 psi takes about 4 minutes.

Re: ECV-Keys 2016

Nice to see that the tracker has finally come back to life....
Presently showing the group in Key Largo.
I wonder if Humphrey Bogart is showing them the local highlights? :wink:

It does show them northbound, presumably on the way home again since their itinerary had them arriving home by the 31.

Re: ECV-Keys 2016

I'm confused about your route.....

You were on the beach at Daytona yesterday yet the tracker has you on the opposite coast at Tampa this morning.
Made a wrong turn? :?
