Isn't that an awful long ride for a BMW?

I know, that was Wrong. That is a very interesting way of presenting a Ride Report. I have seen that done once on ADVRider.

That is cool software. Amazing it can chronicle a complex ride like that. Seems kinda useless to me here in Illinois. I could get pretty much the same thing by going to a garage sale and buying an old Etch a sketch. About all we have around here is straight lines and 90* corners That red panel only has 2 dimensions..... seems spot on for corn and soybean fields. Lol


All joking aside. Keep that coming John!

I did a lot of that in 2017 at the ride you put on. I was nice to re-live it a bit.

Y'all have hurt my feelings and violated my Safe Space. I would report you guys to HotRodZilla but now the police are the Bad Guys so I really don't know what to do.

All of these Rude Gestures... Is this typical of BMW Owners?

Perhaps the gesture matches their IQ. :stickpoke:

It appears that he got lost.

John, this should help you out for your next ride so you don't get lost again.

WTF did I do?!?!

You have to be gentle with the BMW owners. If you get them before they have had a proper dosing of their double vanilla, two pump, mocha, passion fruit soy boy latte, with white chocolate sprinkles, they get very testy.
