Aug Photo Tag - Day Trippin' NW Georgia cont'd
A little bit of Kennesaw Mountain history, much more online >>
The park was built by the Conservation Corps during the 1930's. During the Great Depression, Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park was the site of Camp Brumby, a Civilian Conservation Corps site (CCC). The Civilian Conservation Corps was created as a part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal programs to aid the American public in the recovery from the Great Depression. The federal government provided the men with food, clothing, shelter and tools. There were over 4,000 CCC camps in the then 48 states and the men worked 40 hours a week, earning $30 dollars a month (a lot of money at the time), $25 of which was sent home.

Sunday, Aug 29, 2021 - More NW Georgia Taggin'
I decided to get an early start today to grab the GaTOR (Georgia Tag-o-rama) tag, up in Calhoun, GA. I mean early early... It was still dark out.
All for a nice run to here >>
I bet it had a hella recoil.
Any former artillery men around here?
Don't cut the red wire! What ever you do!
American Legion Riders chapters are well known for their charitable work, which has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for local children's hospitals, schools, veterans homes, severely wounded servicemembers and scholarships. Since 2006, Riders nationwide have participated in The American Legion Legacy Run to annually raise money for the Legacy Scholarship Fund, established to provide scholarships to children of U.S. military personnel killed since Sept. 11, 2001.
The Riders began with a spark of inspiration in 1993 from post commander, Chuck "Tramp" Dare from Garden City, MI, and Bill "Polka" Kaledas. More about people with nicknames in a little bit.

Sept 5, 2021 - North Central Georgia
Seems of late, Day Trippin' for me means Photo Tagging! It's okay, it combines two of my favorite things.
I sometimes mash up photage taggin' between ADV and a facebook group. To be honest, the facebook crowd ain't exactly gittin' the who phototaggin' thing--but I keep trying to inspire them.
North Georgia Tag-o-rama was here >>
Not exactly a mecca of bikers--but it was definitely panic inducing if you have become crowd adverse in the current global climate. Wow, peoples love them some beaver at Buc-ee's. Their logo is a beaver, you filthy minded ol' farts.
Facebook tag was here >>
Now THIS stop made for some bike pron pics!!!
All kinds of bikes! Fat ones, skinny ones, ones that climb on rocks!
I've been to Rocco's a half dozen times over the last I don't know few years, and I swear I've seen this bike there multiple times. This day I finally had my camera along!!
Oh, wait! This is bike is mine! >>
It's impossible to keep yourself out of the reflections of a chrome beast! Where's Dan?

Once again, your post is a delight to my eyes. Keep 'em coming.
Ours is a red, black and chrome 2017 F3 Limited. Bought new in 2/2019. The avatar is my first bike back in 1952, a Simplex Servi-Cycle. Photo taken at the Barber Museum.

Sometimes called "Photo tagging," "Tag-O-Ramas," or just "Tags". Need to typically be grounded in a local or regional thread, enjoy!

Well, digging into the error code Charlotte is throwing, P0340 >> Camshaft Position Sensor... YAY!
Let's make sure we're not just having a problem with electrical/voltage drops:
Battery, 12.83v
Check the F8 CAPS fuse, continuity tonality 'beep'
Let's gut some of the other 'things' hanging off the wiring harness--still have the trailer wiring harness installed even though I sold the trailer a year ago...
wiring enema complete
Unhooked all the fuses (run through a separate switching bus) for all other lights, and accessory plugs. Still throwing the code. Here's where the internet fails me... some folks seem to think error codes magically go away when the offending item is exorcised, some seem to think a dealer has to reset the code. I'm barely a shade-tree mechanic. What do I know. How to reset a code myself?? Any other vehicle in my driveway I can reset with a $30 code monitor--the Can-Am requires a BUDS diagnostics gizmo for $700 plus some more Benjamin's for the annual license codes. I know, I know--you wanna play, you gotta...
So, back to the interwebs. It used to be for a Can-Am ECU kick in the pants, you had to pull your 'puter and send it off to some wizard in a tower somewhere and hand them a bunch of money and they'd send you back an enchanted performance chip.
Dynojet and Fuel Moto to the rescue. We can now plug a programmer into our Spyders to satisfy our lust for a little better seat o' the pants experience--but also reset it back to factory default at any time if we want to as well. Fuel Moto also gives you a lifetime of reprogramming fuel maps if you mod your Spyder in the future--so I sent a note to Fuel Moto, and asked if the PV3 would ALSO allow me to reset error codes. Lucas said "Yes!" He's never lied to me before, so...
If nothing else, I get a little more zoom zoom...

New camshaft position sensor installed, code reset within 10 sec of idling. Had to cut off a plastic bracket because it was in the way. Hope I don't miss that later in life.
But then a disappointment. I have to wait for Dynojet to send over an adapter for the PV3. It was supposed to be in the box--because sometimes our Canadian brothers at the mothership Can Am wire the diagnostic port one way--and sometimes they wire it another. Can't wait to flash it, baby. More to come.
