At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability.

    What coffee do you drink at home vs off grid?

    Friend grows coffee in SB Calif, first in North America to do so. I have done the process from picking berries to depulping then floating, and drying then roasting. Really cool but lots of work.

    Lets talk coffee on the trail...

    Pour overs are so convenient, no waste of water and super quick. Built a fold down coffee station, holes hold my coffee cup and catch cup. Nice when its single digits out, just lean over and fire it up. Feet never touch the floor. Owned a coffee shop for years, loved french presses but perks...

    Dirt Bikes: Anyone else throw one on/in the back?

    Normally have my XR 250 (street licensed) in the slot, I use this little SL70 when I am just on the cruise. Dog and I can sleep with either loaded inside rather nicely. Board spans across the back holds the front wheel, that way both doors open.

    Any rubber dust/shavings? if so something misaligned. A washer behind my alternator shimmed mine back inline and fixed repeated belt squeal. That was on a Cummins Diesel I installed in a old Chevy 4X4 though. Is the close or far side of the belt shiny? Spray of most sorts will quiet it of...
