He did a stint in the Army as well - Royal Corps of Signals Motorcycle Display Team, The White Helmets! fabulous stuff. I'm hoping some m...

Re: My Alaska photos are online

Fantastic shots as usual Greg! Thanks for letting us live vicariously through your many adventures. I have customers in Anchorage and have been a few times but have yet to get out & about. Your pics inspire me to do just that.

Re: Implant

My procedure starts early Sept - oh joy! Tried everything to save it but a recently discovered crack along the sidewall sealed my fate. I'll have the pain meds from the top shelf, thank you very much.

Re: Ride through the Rockies

Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park, Trail Ridge Road on the western side. The ride starts out at around 11,000 ft. on the way to Grand Lake. Terrific day!

Re: C60 Accuracy

Consistency is the key (I'm told) as Alex says. My 2 C60s are 20 sec fast (GMT) and 20ish sec slow for the Trident. The fun part is setting them accordingly and then trying to remember to look when they both might align with the the atomic clock down the street.

Apparently I need a life...

Re: Trident woes :(

FWIW Chris - My G60 GMT has been spot on as has the C60 Trident Black I bought from the sales corner. Both ETA. I know that doesn't help your immediate issues - sorry.
