Fine! If you think you can drive better.....

I was unable to post while on the road so i will subject you to a trip recap now.

The Mayor (aka, Mike, Pearl, The Terrorist, etc....) and Slick trading places, 555 style. Easy? Sure. But on a folding rig? Not so much. However, look how easy they make it look. Those guys are so boss!

Drafting

I thought that you'd like to see the underside of Slim's rig.....as we were moving down the road. In order to make any sort of time we drafted a good 60% of the way across the country. This was shot slightly wide so even though it looks close, they were even closer than that! I think Slim was trying to knock the camera out of my hand.

I'm just a doin my job, I'm the ...

Apparently drafting old buckets of junk is frowned upon in Wyoming! 

Slim figured out how to beat the Wyoming headwinds...

Idaho

The boys have made Pocatello, Idaho. They are flying without passengers in the sidecars!
Pearl getting his exhaust fixed near Ft. Collins I think... Thanks a million Ed and Cindy!

Pearl riding the cow

And as for the rest of us, we're freakin great. It was an awesome time. We all wish we had 2 weeks instead of just 1 to do it, but regardless, it was amazing. We'll definitely plan a bit more time to do it in next time. Who knows what contraptions we'll come up with!

Here's a video of Pistol and Dic's adventure up to Leadville.
