Finally on the Road


After a 2 day delay we finally got on the road. I had to regroup after putting the bikes on the swivel wheel carrier. I found out i couldn't tow it with the Jeep as the Jeep caused the carrier to sway. So we bought a 6' trailer. Johnny Wieting helped me modify it to carry 2 motorcycles. We now have a ROAD TRAIN. The trailer sways a little but is manageable. We are parked for the night in Ozona Texas at the circle bar rv park. We hope to hit the road early in the am.

Closer to getting on the road

Just got back from the Cummins service center and the recall for v band clamps is done they also installed 7 updates to the engine management system. We spent the night in front of the service center as the engine had to be cold. I don't think we will be doing much boondocking. It was so nice to get back to the Bastrop River KOA Rv Park.
