yeah, this fire season sure is starting early. Pray for monsoon rain!

Well I'm getting everything ready to head to the border on Saturday, with the "official" start on Sunday! Already watching 2 wildfires that look like they will affect the route. The first is the Johnson fire near the Gila Cliff Dwellings in Southern NM, and the second is the Sylvan Lake Fire...

Thanks Kent, I think you already sent me your GPX files and I loaded them into my GAIA. If I remember right, you're starting the end of July, right? m

Hi Larry, Sorry for the late response, I was out of town. Unfortunately, I need to be done and in Missoula to meet up with the family about the time you'll be finishing up Colorado. m

Neal, I'll PM you my numbers.

Last year, 2 of the motos and one of Jeeps and I did the AZ BDR. I am planning on doing the main route on both the CDT and the CO BDR portions. Especially when alone, I don't think I'll be tackling any of the "expert" sections.

Hi Neal, I've talked to a couple people who have used the track. There's at least one single-track section in Idaho, and a part in MT that I will bypass. Didn't really focus on the CO portion because we won't be following it. For CO, we will be 2 jeeps (one with a small trailer), my van, and...

Hi All, I am planning on doing a Continental Divide Trip next month. I'll be taking the 4x4 Sprinter and generally following the GPS Kevin route. I'm starting in Southern NM on June 27. I'll take about a week through NM. On July 5, I'm leaving the CDT route and meeting up with a group that...

Thinner air at higher altitudes allows for the use of lower octane fuel without pinging. The lower oxygen level results in a richer fuel-air mixture. That's why you see 85 octane regular in the elevations (at least here in the West).

When I was in college and broke because I spent all my wages from the bike shop on parts, it was a box of Kraft mac cheese, a can of tuna, and a can of green chile. That'd stick with you. Even better if I actually had milk instead of water for the mac cheese.

Got my Relentless Fab bumper on the truck, finally.

Chloride Canyon?

I have the COMET-NCG SS-680SBNMO. It has a spring in the base.

No argument. I was only responding to the statement that neither Gaia nor OnX worked without cell service.

Gaia and Onx should work fine without cell service...but only if you download the maps. I use both when traveling and hunting in areas with no cell service, and they work great with the downloaded maps.

I have one of those. It's great so far. It slides right on the pour hole of the LCI MWCs.

It might be worth contacting a couple of the smaller folding bike makers, like BikeFriday or Montague, and asking them. They'd probably know the reputable brands.

July/August will be hot hot hot for the southern part of your trip, days 1-2. Especially day 2 between Ruidoso and T or C. But, it's a dry heat... Rain can be an issue in that time frame, more in the northern section. It is the afternoon monsoon season. When we did the route last year in June...

Raising brackets for a Westy pop-top?

Just got the 58V 16" Chainsaw w/ 4Ah Battery and Charger Echo CCS-58V4AH for my birthday. Reviews are very good, and not too expensive.
