timbo Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Waaayyyy cool. I am kinda pissed, however. I just replaced my trusty old 276C with a Montana 650 T. Oh well, they say the Monterra fits the same handlebar mount . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbo Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Well you do like running 2 GPS right? I was kinda hoping to get away from that, Ray. It's a tad distracting occassionally............. and I get bug-eyed trying to look at the topo map on one and the qc trail map on the other.

Ok one eye on the topo one eye on the QC map......how do you watch the trail? lol is that why you bring Thad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though he generally rides sweep, he rides so close on my bumper that I can tell by the chatter of his skis when it's time to turn-in to set up for a corner. I must admit, however that method is best for big, wide, sweepers I know it is a close held secret, but I do occassionally explore the jing-weed and the pucker-brush with this method, but rarely encounter the new-growth timber .

You Guys must be talking about a different Thad then I have rode with..... I rode with Mario. BTW when you say he rides close on your bumper is that because you carry a short tow rope? Stay out of the new-growth timber!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I close my eyes...when I hear the puckers on the right I go left...when I hear them on the left I go right...when I hear them in front I pin it You Guys must be talking about a different Thad then I have rode with.....

That is a long-proven approach to big mileage trail riding. If you want to do 300 - 350mi days you need a well proven strategy.
