          Thanks Chris, great info. I’ll keep an eye for the humidors and for the time being, I’ll follow your tupperware humidor for the time being.

          Looking forward to trying out the ordered cigars and joining you guys in a future ride.

            Thanks for the replies/info. I’ve placed an order on jrcigars.com for (based on another recommendation):

            Oliva Serie V Melanio Robusto
            Arturo Fuente Sun Grown Double

            I’ve also been told to check out:

            Arturo Fuente Don Carlos Eye of the Shark
            Arturo Fuente Casa Cuba Double Cuatro, or Double Seis
            EP Carrillo Las Historia III
            EP Carrillo Encore Majestic

            Haven’t been able to find them (mostly sold out or not carried by them).

            David, thanks for the suggestion on the bourbon πŸ™‚ Which Arturo Fuente do you like, Romeo y Julieta?
            Chris, thanks for the links and info. I’ve tried the Cubans when I go abroad and prefer Cohiba or Montecristo, but I’ve been told of very good Dominican or Nicaraguan, as you mention. So, question: Which brands do you like?

              Diane and I are fine as well. Just working remotely, in different rooms πŸ™‚
              We also ride our bicycles a lot to stay in shape (google zwift), which hopefully will soon be in the real world.

                    I was at the Rock Store, but didn’t see any of you. So I assume you took the shorter ride to Ortega πŸ™‚

                      I’m in as well. I’m booked at those hotels.
                      Looking forward to the trip.

                            Or get $3 off with code EM820.
                            Rick, hopefully we’ll see you and Lisa there on Saturday morning.

                              Karl,
                              Thanks for the feedback. I’ll look into going to the breakfast at LB before the show.

                                Joe, thanks for the feedback. This past weekend I got to see the Skeene (on Chris’) and the Billie Light (on Jesse’s). If I only go for the brake lights, I’m leaning towards the Skeene’s retina bursting LEDs. But if I also want to couple the directionals (both front and back), I’m looking at
                                the combination of ez Hexcan with Weiser Ultrabright LEDs. It is more money (~360) but it would have
                                the deceleration, flashing brakes, and the directionals used in combination with the brakes (front
                                directionals would be used as auxiliary lights)

                                  Diane and I had a great time. Thanks to Danny and Elaine for organizing it, and thanks to Karl and others who volunteered to be impromptu ride leaders. We had a lot of fun. Should become a new “repeat”
                                  location/ride.

                                    Mark, thanks for the feedback. Yes, I noticed that on their website, although I couldn’t get much detail of
                                    their “canopener” module (i.e. specs). Because of its total price, it is not really on my short list.

                                    So, it looks like only the Skeene has the deceleration under a “reasonable” price of $185 + ship/tax.
                                    The Weiser setup is $250 for the rear (which replaces the left/right lights with bright LEDS) or $450 for the
                                    front and back setup (i.e. 4 sets of ultrabright LEDs). Unfortunately, it seems to lack the deceleration
                                    feature.

                                      Thanks for the feedback, guys.
                                      I’ve got a follow up question: Do you have the deceleration feature on your setup? Is there a minimum threshold
                                      on the speed before the system starts flashing?
