You guys know I had a pair of FRS radio at the fall meet. Well now for Christmas I got a more powerful set (up to 25 miles). This way when Gary has to go back and get his camcorder we can keep in contact

Don't forget to bring yours this spring...

 

Hey James,
Did Santa stop at your place first tonight.
How did you get a gift before Santa arrived ??
I expect Santa will be bring me a new set of 20 mile range motorola radios and I will post if my wishes are answered.

 

Why not just use your cell phone!

 

There is absolutely no cell phone service anywhere in this area for anybody regardless of thier provider.

 

The radios are great for keeping the groups in contact.

 

Hey James, I must have been a good little boy this year Santa had a set under my tree today. Gotta love those radio's in the mountains.

 

no cell signal where we stay and play....it was kind of nice actually...but Gary needs "hands free" mic, 'cause I watched him drive with his knees and that is murder on those turns, let alone Gary's boney knees...

 

cops start playing on the dragon around noon - 1pm and later . get on the hill early for some fun. and it's so much more fun on a sports bike.

 

I am with you on that one lowwkeyy. Would love to have a sport bike with me...

 

Spoken like a true "flat-lander" there Randy....ROFL!!

 

I got my ticket about 7;30 am on a sunday morning ,on the dragon 48 in a 30 $140 + drivers training on line. Need someone to run lookout front and rear all have radios.

 

I agree.
Point can play lookout, and the tail can make sure nobody gets left behind.

If we reset our tripmeters using one of the endpoints as a common reference we can all be on the same page.

 

Always had a hand on the wheel doc.
Even while I held the video camera on the dash.
Did you mention boney knees ??? LOL

When you say no cell service, do you really mean NONE or really crappy?? I don't know when I was out of cell range in the last 7-8 years. My co-workers are going to LOVE that!!!

 

NONE -NOTTA-NOTHING-DEAD-DISCONNECTED-NO SERVICE

 

Well .... CRAP!!! I guess it is good to know now.

 

Frank, I am sure you have always been a good little boy....

James

 

Hmmmm- You know us high school catholic boys are angels right! I don't think so! Remind me at the spring meet and I'll share some angel stories with ya.

 

Hey Valk, the only thing we didn't do was synch our trip odometers, that's a good idea. Guy in the rear occasionally has to chase down someone that makes the errant turn, and block the road so that everyone gets on the road together. I have some pretty good video of us doing this. We should use as a trining filf for the fall.

The radios that people need to bring are the ones that go above chanel 14, the higher numbers have beter range, and are much clearer.

I got lots of experience running the video, and the radio while driving, the "co-pilot" just enjoyed the ride, occasionallyholding on for dear life - LOL

 

Let me see if I got this right. You are running the radio, the camera AND DRIVING!?!

No wonder the co-pilot was hanging on for dear life!
