We could also do a tuning fork shaped ride - out to French Meadows Dam on Mosquito Ridge Rd and double back to Foresthill, then down to Georgetown for a run out to the end of Wentworth and back. Definitely no dirt on that.

I'm never hell bent on loops, I just like good roads and will run them repeatedly until complete exhaustion (as TC and St.S know very well haha)

I’m in, as per usual. Basically flying back to Cali just for this. Always enjoy tooling around with you weirdos. 

Has anyone scouted that Mosquito Rd section? I’m a regular on Mosquito RIDGE Rd - which is back open now, btw - but can’t recall if I’ve ever ridden Mosquito Rd. Google Maps also says a section of it is closed til Aug 29. 

Just gotta use that info to decide which bike to bring. Goat path or go fast?

Here you shall find Brian, always up for some NorCal mayhem. In for March 2. 

Absolutely brilliant. Well done sir.

Isn't that...the frame???

Or do you mean the scuff protector plasticky thing above the footpeg?

Why not just use LegalSpeeding's HARD unit? They have a newer unit out that I'm using that is waterproof.

My friends all use the HARD system, but I decided not to.

* I can't learn much about circuits that way.

* Too expensive.

* Don't want more wires inside my helmet.

* Don't want to deal with batteries.

* Friend's HARD system interfered with his phone-to-helmet Bluetooth audio... and I like music while I ride.

This setup will have one cable to the radar for me to plug in and that's it. I like simple. ;)

Interesting. I use a Sena SMH10r to bluetooth music from my phone with no issues. First I've heard of anything like that. I'd guess this person having the problem is using an Adaptiv radar instead of an Escort or V1.

I ran my HARD wire from the back of the helmet through the cheekpad of my helmets, no issues and no wires dangling, invisible really. Batteries on the new one last forever. Cost is $159 and that's cheaper than a ticket, much cheaper considering my speeds. My time is money so for me to build something and pull me away from other duties the DIY would be much more expensive but kudos for tackling it.

Good luck to you. In daylight I can't see anything being as effective as the HARD unit. Best m/c mod I've ever done.

This is a very good HARD advertisement. Looking at them right now!

I like what you're doing a lot. My only concern is that it's not really in your line of sight is it?

I mounted the Marc Parnes on my V-Strom at the top of the windscreen because when I had it down low (at the base of the screen) I missed an alert and got a 54 in a 35. Never again. Now it goes through my headphones anyway, but I'm watching what you're up to with interest. Good work.
