On March 22nd our brand new Facebook page went "Live".  Paul Lawry, a well-known bus nut designed the page for us and he is the Chief Moderator.  Buck Trout is the secondary Moderator.  We have wanted to do this for over a year now and we finally had the time to do it.  When Paul and Buck stepped up to the plate to set it up for us, I was very excited. 

Check out our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/BCMagUSA/ and be sure to "Like" our page.  Everyone that "Likes" our page will receive $1.00 off any item purchased from our Facebook Store, which eventually will have almost everything that is in our website store.  Also, tell all of your friends about our Facebook page as well.  We will soon be offering special deals on some items in our Facebook Store, so be on the lookout for them.

To learn how not to paddle a kayak, see Crazy Jack video here of him and Pam kayaking floating upside down on the Kibler Valley section of the Dan River.  Unlike Crazy Jack, try to keep the top of your kayak facing up. LOL

To learn what to do when your bus runs out of fuel and it is snowing cats and dogs outside check out this BFTP article from back in 1997.  It still snows some places so this is still a potential Road Fix for you too.
