Wow, this is great. I hope you don't mind if I use these for www.ridethecanal.com. How did you get them?

I didn't "get" the files. I made them.

This is just what I was looking for ! Thank you Cham. I plan to ride some and paddle some with 3 other 70 year olds. Of course, all this convenience takes some of the "adventure" out of it, but who wants to struggle when the wine has been breathing already?
