I have all the photos on my hard drives and most can be replaced with time but what a PITA. <br /><br />Once I figured out how to upload from my computer I should have changed but then I wouldn't have learned another life lesson :-).<br /><br />ken I'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-86532269741149004542017-07-03T18:49:07.359-07:002017-07-03T18:49:07.359-07:00Hi Ken,

The photos are instrumental to understanding the posts.<br /><br />Thanks for posting and I hope you get through this setback. <br /><br />SteveSteve Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-5603495658896589332017-07-02T18:50:03.218-07:002017-07-02T18:50:03.218-07:00Bob,

Started to use Photobucket and just never got around to changing...<br /><br />Really dumb on their part, over the years I've put up with a lot of ads and after using them for over 12 years I've only used less than 30% of my "free storage". Oh well it gets me off my ass and direct is a better way.<br /><br />kenI'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-76403900478645091632017-07-02T18:42:14.563-07:002017-07-02T18:42:14.563-07:00Jonas,

It sounds impressive but the reality is it one of the easier rides. IIRC I finished mine in something like 44 hours and that included a couple of stops at the Iron Butt Motel (quick nap on a rest area picnic table) in the Florida panhandle. One of the hard ones is the Bun Burner Gold 1500 miles in less than 24 hours, not much down time in that one.<br /><br />BTW, there are rides all over Europe as well, it is lots of fun and you get to know some amazing people who do some unbelievable rides. <br /><br />As much as I enjoyed it, that time has passed. My eyes and brain can no longer handle the night rides.<br /><br />ken I'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-43197402920614494132017-07-02T18:29:53.389-07:002017-07-02T18:29:53.389-07:00Ralph,

400$!!
That is outrageous.
In the start ...Hi Ken <br /><br />400$!!<br /><br />That is outrageous.<br />In the start I used Picasaweb Which is Googles sort of picture organizer. But then I discovered that I didn't have to first put the pictures there before adding them to the blog.<br />I actually think that my blog pictures end back on the Picasaweb once I have published them on the blog- though I am not completely sure about it.<br /><br />I just checked a post of yours from 2010, and it still had pictures. <br />It was about some 50 CC ride across the USA. Now I suspect that 50 CC in USA is a lot different from 50 CC in Europe :-)<br /><br />Brgds<br />Jonas<br />Jonas Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07787393233185454227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-13770850950866375042017-07-02T03:28:21.657-07:002017-07-02T03:28:21.657-07:00Other people have posted the same problem with the...Other people have posted the same problem with them. But most of them said that all their previous photos were removed. $400 seems a bit on the steep side for 3rd party postings. Maybe it's their way of getting rid of the small fish in the pond.Ralph Boumenothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10606484453109932074noreply@blogger.com
