Its too long--I took that name because it was the first thing that popped into my head when I was envisioning COFSTA 8 yrs ago-- back in the early days of Twisty Tom & Wild Bill, etc.

Plus theres too damn many BMW sycophants out there already. <muaha>

TBD; business is kinda up-and-down week by week but will keep an eye on your ride thread.

Are you guys still using GMRS, or is everybody running full-duplex on Senas now?

GMRS pretty much all the time for me unless its maybe just 2 people who want to use BT. If you're coming we will be SURE to use GMRS! <grin>

BT has too many issues to use in a group IMHO. Fading in/out/static in the twisties. Constant wind noise. Inability to use GPS turn-by-turn audio in some cases. It all "sounds" great in theory but falls short when put to the test. Not to mention folks singing/farting/burping/cursing/screaming/praying. <muaha>

Understood, Bob... I didn't want to get up on my soapbox about it, but consider the "benefit" of groupspeak to be ...over-rated <dedhrse>
