  1. We are in Alberta.

    We have been to all the West coast rally's since the start and would really miss this trip as it is our biggest planned trip of the year.

    The amount of cases here in Canada are very much related to population base with Ontario and BC having the most cases as of today we have 74 cases in Alberta from last report. The USA has about 10 times the population we have here and from what I have seen from USA reports has about 10 times the cases we do. I hope that a vaccine is developed very soon so we can put this behind us.

  2. Here in our province we had 18 new cases since yesterday. We also have a very accurate way of reporting factual numbers with a national public health care system. I also hope to be able to travel this summer to the rally but wouldn't do it with out travel insurance or without the lifting of the travel advisory from health Canada being lifted.

  3. Well, I hope we can get through this world wide pandemic by June. You may know as Canadians traveling to the USA we must buy travel insurance and the current state of things there are no insurance company's covering any medical cost's associated with the COVID-19 virus if you travel out of country. God bless us through these trying times.

  4. I used to fully charge my cordless tool batteries for storage but since I got a new e-bike that sits most of the winter here I use the charging recommendation from the  e-bike for my cordless tools as well.

    1.     Before storage make sure that the battery is not charged
    more than 50% so that it will accept a periodic charge.
    (You cannot periodically charge a fully charged battery)
    2.     Once every month you must attach the supplied battery charger and charge for a period of no more than 15 minutes.
    3.     Continue this procedure once a month until more frequent riding.
    This process will make sure that your battery does not stay at a specific rate of charge for long periods of time.

    Howdy Phil,

    No offense my friend but I'll pass on the drink your talking about, that's nearly as bad as washin your feet with your socks on or drinking a light beer.  Now if you want to crack a bottle of Jack Daniels, throw the cap away and howl at the moon I am your man.  Well at least I used ta be before I went n got old.

    Our thanks to all that participated and especially to Chad and Jennifer for putting on a spectacular event!  Tell us what you think in the video comments and feel free to share. More rally videos to follow so be sure and subscribe.

    Thanks Jim & Kellie! It was really nice seeing you at the rally again......maybe catch up with you on the gulf coast one day.  :)   

  7. Rick....I agree with you strapping down the the car in the TH'er is not as much fun as the the deck.  :)  The L-track that I installed in the TH'er has made it possible to tie down anything that fits in there. The original D-rings were a compromise.  I use the wheel straps on the Polaris RZR 1000 SxS and the wheel baskets on the SC on the deck. It is also easy to tie down our motorbikes in the back with the L-tack since it offers a multitude of hardware that attaches to it.
    Also, noticed the the straps from Cargo Equipment are 30% less than the ones from US Cargo. I have no affiliation with either company but being in the wholesale parts business 30% is the margin we set for our retailers on this kind of stuff. US Cargo could be buying from the other company and make the 30% margin. IMO
