"Let me tell you a story about a man named Jed". I thought the trailer would be great. I can carry all the stuff and Sharon won't have to carry anything on her bike. As we're packing she wants her Mosko Reckless 80 mounted on her RS. Last year we lived off the bikes for a month and were just...

In highschool I weighed 135lbs soaking wet. I worked at a bike shop. My job was to assemble new bikes, clean and put on display. If it had a centerstand it was to be on the centerstand. So I learned a couple tricks on how to get a Goldwing on the centerstand. So from then on I've never had an...

New tires mounted? Check

I will be updating daily. Scheduled departure is Monday.

My wife is tasked with making a wedding cake for her little brother in Montana. So instead of heading to Alaska as planned. We'll be taking the bikes to Montana for a wedding/family reunion. So the ADV1 will be loaded with cake making stuff. Keep tuned in for the ride. The nightmare... i mean...

This could easily be done. However as someone that has 3+ million miles pulling a trailer. This would be more of a PITA than it would be worth. Just backing the trailer behind the bike will test your patience. There's not a snowballs chance in a hot spot you could back it with a car. It's like...

Better yet drop Tiger in Chicago. Catch the California Zephyr to Osceola, Ia. Jump on Beemer with preloaded trailer and ride to Alaska.

How soon and how long do you need it? Sharon is itching for a long ride.

I'd like to see a frame mounted hitch for the Triumph tiger 900. That way O can carry the same trailer with 2 different bikes.

My buddy has a 2019 Klamata with green mosko as well. He has a blacked out windshield too.

You might want to drag a small generator along just in case.

As a professional truckdriver I prefer to load a bit heavier on the front. In winter on the truck it adds traction and keeps the trailer in line. About 10 to 15% is enough.

If we're talking March of 26. I might have to load up and head out there. Weather can be iffy between here and there in March. I'd love to ride out but there's those pesky Rocky mountains to worry about. Might have to drag it out with the truck. If that's the case I can fit 3 big bikes in my...

I can think of 3 places for the QR code. Make them reflective and between the tail lights and either side of the hitch. Maybe a couple different sizes. Maybe 1 or 2" square.

Here's my setup so far.

25L/35L on the bike because of the muffler. 35L/35L on the trailer. I had been looking for a set of used green bags. The day before I went to Chicago to pickup the trailer. A guy in the middle of my route put these on marketplace. SCORE!!!

Is there a plan in place yet for rides or rallies? Apr 11-13 I'm heading to the spring dust off in Spragueville, Iowa. It's 3 days of all kinds of riding. Everything from twisty highways, gravel roads to private offroad park. Wife and I are taking a couple different bikes. I will try some mild...

Sometimes I need to keep my mouth shut.
