Magruder Corridor round trip

[Sacagawea]

Sounds easy enough. I hope you know better than to send all that in one email....

We have encrypted email as required by the government for medical billing. I will be able to send the info needed without concern. You are right though to be careful about data sent over the internet.

You're going to need more help then.

Not really.

Not really.

It's a f***ing joke Monty! You've spent God knows how many hours dealing with the government to get a $15 license plate.

Btw, are you going to make this ride?

 

[Montecresto]

That’s good to hear! Lot cheaper then a weekend pass some places

Exactly. One call to the DMV, ten days waiting for a supervisor to call back, and done. $20.00

@CumminsPusher, I’m now working on a cage for the rear of the tear drop trailer, 1” square welded aluminum that will bolt to my receiver hitch that I ordered on it that will hold three 5 gallon Jerry cans for fuel. 15 gallons is close to two fill ups which will be more than needed, but no telling how many side trails we may take off the MC, and how long they are lol.

That’s a good idea, I remember you going to do something like that for ROTC. Careful on rear weight bias though that could get really unsettling.

 

[Montecresto]

Would one of these work? Probably too big. I think they make smaller ones.

Thanks but no, I’m making a custom rack for my specific needs.

Right. I never got that far then lol. So this one is smaller dimensions, will weigh about 8 lbs. and carry about 108 lbs. do you remember how far back the axle sets on the tear drop?

Oh that’s not bad if they sat back

Oh yeah, way back.

 

[CumminsPusher]

Oh yeah, way back.

Ya nevermind. Would probably tow better lol.

So, at this point, who is confirmed for this ride?

I figured it wouldn't suit your discerning specifications.

 

[JTW]

Oh yeah, way back.

I really like the idea of this... any pics of the interior?

Well, I thank you for the link. I’ve looked at several of those, none are made to the specs that I need.

Other than my wife and I, I don’t know if anyone else is confirmed. There’s several, including yourself that have shown interest. But, it’s not the typical ride. Most rides you see in the forum are trail rides with a base camp. This is more of a cross country. A different deal altogether. Anyone interested has to be able to take off a couple of weeks time, spend a few thousand dollars if they are traveling any distance. Folks in the vicinity I suppose can take a day or to and ride up for a bit. Still a long time between now and July...

Let me look for that. It’s just a bed and a cabinet with inverter, and 12 Volt outlet for phone charging etc, a 120 Volt receptacle and various lights.

This was an earlier drawing. The dimensions will actually now be 42.5”x7”x12” to snuggly fit 3 Jerry fuel cans.
