1joeranger Posted July 22, 2009 #1 Posted July 22, 2009 I have taken my trailer on the "Summer 09 Tour" and I am proud to say it has been a success so far. The trailer, "Rosemary", has tacked the Blue Ridge Parkway, Skyline Drive, Pennsylvania rural area, winds of Lake Erie, the rough roads of Buffalo, and she is negotiating New England over these next couple days! Her proudest moment was reaching elevation 6578, at the top at Mt. Mitchell in North Carolina. Her locomotive, "Rachel (05 RSTD), has had no problems pulling her averaging anywhere from 38mpg to 43mpg depending on the terrain, speed, and wind conditions. She does not know she pulling anything unless we hit a bump! The setup gets a lot of comments and picture taking from people we meet! I have pointed everyone in the direction of "VentureRider.org" telling them this is the place where I brainstormed, researched, and got sound advice on the while renovating her and overcoming the initial design flaws. Later this week we will be adventuring in Nova Scotia, Northern Maine, and the Canada. After that I thought we would head west and try out some more mountains!! Thanks all!!

a1bummer Posted July 22, 2009 #5 Posted July 22, 2009 And I thought I was stuffing a lot of crap onto my trailer.
Monsta Posted July 22, 2009 #6 Posted July 22, 2009 You named your trailer?? So how much do you think it weighs when it's loaded? It looks like a huge load!
1sttenor Posted July 22, 2009 #7 Posted July 22, 2009 And I thought I was stuffing a lot of crap onto my trailer. Me too! I'm obviously just getting started.
Stoutman Posted July 22, 2009 #8 Posted July 22, 2009 I have to say that is one fine looking motorcycle! I bet you remember that trip for a long while. Enjoy the road.
