Left St. Felician this am at 0730... MINUS 22 degrees F!!!! Love my heated Gerbing gloves and jacket liner and KLIM riding gear!! I sure hope some of you all can spare a few bucks and hit the DONATE key there and tag me as your favorite rider 100% of what is donated goes to diabetes research. And I need some HELP as other guys have been doing a better job of motivating their family and friends Just over 2500 miles on the sled now with three more riding days left. we are in Chibougamau tonight. Leaving for Lelel-Sar-Quevillon tomorrow (180 miles), Valdor (135 miles) and 195 miles to our start/end point of Temiscaming Saturday. It has been an awesome adventure and I can not say enough about the Gaspe Peninsula!!! I would like to come back in the summer on the Rocket.

I missed one day of riding due to a short in my heated seat, but I should still end up with 3,000 miles on the sled. There are some photos and video on the site also. I was nominated rider of the day today so my mug should be posted tonight.

Thanks for your support and interest. Looking forward to Colorado!!!!

Hey if you fellows KNOW the Spot - I need to learn how to track over one week.
I used mine all the way across country and back over 6 weeks.
All I had at trip's end was the last 7 days of data.
VERY disappointed at Spot, who was no help after several calls.
See youse in Montrose wearing my dunce cap.

I'm ATGAT, Joe Rocket leather jacket and icon compound fighter mesh/leather pants in cooler weather and Joe Rocket Phoenix 11.0 mesh jacket and pants when it gets hot. I also have a set of draggin jeans for riding around town. Helmets are the Nolan N104 and the Bell Rogue. Joe Rocket Super Cruiser boots and I have 3 sets of gloves, everyday riding, wet weather and a set of heated gloves for cooler weather. Forgot to mention tour master rain gear

Draggin jeans are ok but they seem to wear out @ the knee seams rather fast...I've gone through several pairs

for my HOTTEST DAYS choice I like these Slider khakis:

These Defenders, are the most comfy fit for me & seem to dry fastest. (but don't have knee pad pockets, if you are goin that route):

If you like a loose cut and don't mind a bit more weight,,,these are leather protection (covered with soft mesh), feels much better than kevlar against your skin:
