Yuku free message boards

Hey Davo - Any chance that the GPS Coordinates of the gathering point can be included with the ride details? It was easy with Tottenham as its a small place with a big pub, but Cooroy and Nambucca are a bit bigger. A lot of people now run a GPS (not all have mapping capability) and having the 'target' plotted might save a few of us (or just me) from getting lost at the end of the ride. Just a thought. Funny what pops into your head when you're out riding and playing with your GPS. Cheers, Mick.

Excellent Davo. I missed that when I was browsing the previous posts and threads. It's a struggle to find the time to do all the things that need doing, so I tend to 'scan'. Obviously not very well! Or maybe I did glimpse that and that's what put the thought in my head. Anyway - Thanks for being ahead of the game (as usual). It will be in my GPS tonight.

Yep - I was registered with the old R1150R Ezy Board that has now become a Yuku Board (or something). Another thing that I have trouble keeping up with.

By the way (on a completely different thread for those doing a night run to get to Nambucca or Cooroy), I fitted some Narva Compac 100 driving lights to the bike. Long overdue modification and has made the world of difference to night riding. Only 55w each, so not taxing on the electrical system (relayed and fused etc), but work very well indeed. The lights are available for around $80 - $140 depending on the shop and specials and come in a blister-pack kit with everything that's needed except a waterproof switch. I obtained a suitable switch from a marine shop for $8.

Anyway - It sort of relates to the 09 trips! Easy to do and well worth the effort. The lights aren't 'pretty', but are very functional if you don't want to spring for HID lights at much higher cost.

That's them. Functional but not pretty. I used a couple of CB radio mirror mounting brackets to attach them to the top tube of my crash bar. Very solid, and a bit higher than the GTR. Anyway - I've put this a bit too far off track. Looking forward to the next catch-up in Nambucca. Mick.
