Ground Control to Major Tom!!!

Some of the more interesting discoveries I have made was doing stuff that I shouldn't have and stuff that shouldn't have worked.
To continue in the Apollo 13 spirit, you will need duct tape. You'll only know why when it happens
For the record I repaired a chain with a nail that got me the last ten miles to a ferry home before France shut down.

Faulty fuel cell - check.
Blown apart main system bus - check
Blootered Service Module - check
De Walt Battery - check
Duct Tape - check
"Houston, we're in a go condition."

I'm not sure what the average age is here but I suspect I'm one of the younger ones at 43.

I think i'm at the lower end of the spectrum at 30

My sons are both members, but infrequent posters. They are 31 and 25.

I did say lower end, cause i'm sure there's a few members younger than me, one of your kidos included

The thrill of victory, or the agony of defeat. Fixing your bike and making it home is the ultimate thrill of victory, and calling home for help is the ultimate agony of defeat. Through the kindness of a fellow GS resources member I now have a spare T.P.I. box for my 86 GS 550L, that I tested it and it works. I will keep it in my vetter. Just like Apollo 13, you never really know what you may need out there on the road. Load up some duct tape and I am ready for cross country travel.
