Thanks Robert.

I agree that that makes sense. Who would design a switch that illuminates red in both settings? I don't have the Solar panels so that isn't that reason in my case.

That was a first. Tofino is normally one of the wettest places on the planet. We don't tend to have too much rain here compared with Vancouver. Today was the first day I've ridden to work in the...

For BSmiley

Thanks BSmiley.

That sounds like good advice re: leak checks. I'll make sure to do a hose test sometime in the next while. I was thinking I might work at adding a little bit more of a barrier...

Thanks Cameron,

We're planning our first real trip to the Rockies but hope to hit Tofino sometime in the fall for storm season maybe? That highway will be a good twist test for the rig.

I had booked a site in the Willamette NF but having looked at your "parks" link have changed to a site in Florence that looks much nicer.

Thanks for the link.
