Mod Note:
Welcome to Cycle Chat @LisaG71
I have noticed that you have edited your OP: it is good form, when editing a post, to add something like "Edited to add/change", to clarify what is meant.
The slight aggressive tone in your replies is unwarranted, members have been replying to your OP giving you good suggestions.
Enjoy CC - The mods team.
it's nice to know when one is attacked for posting about bring their dogs with them bike touring the admin will take care of it.
