@thorne Yeah, I often just use hotels. Costs a lot more, but it makes everything easier when you're on a long trip. @leerayl @Valheru

@leerayl Thanks for the shout-out! @thorne I'm less active on Fedi these days, but I still check in on the motorcycling community here, and share photos from my trips. I keep an index of them here: https://fosstodon.org/@dHeinemann/111703916914059728 Most recent was a big ride from Central QLD down to Melbourne. Had an absolute blast! @Valheru

@nova Welcome back, Kris. Hope you are well.

@MudMan@mas.to @rodhilton@mastodon.social @davekarpf@mastodon.social Ah, thanks for the info. It's been about 10 years since I used Twitter.

@rodhilton@mastodon.social @davekarpf@mastodon.social I'd hate to be able to see views on my posts. I don't need to know, and being forced to know would subconsciously make me change the way I write in an effort to maximize engagement. I really appreciate the absence of these kinds of features in Mastodon. In fact, the absence of these features is a feature in and of itself.

@Offbeatmammal@mastodon.social That's a shame about the LEDs. My 2024 doesn't have backlit handlebar controls either, but it'd definitely be a nice-to-have. In some ways, I wish I waited and got a 2025 model with full LED lighting and cruise control included from the factory - but there's always going to be something new around the corner. If I'd waited, I wouldn't have been able to go on all these adventures I've had. How's your 2018 holding up? My 2024 is running like a dream after 17,500 km (10,800 mi).
