Long trip in 100 degrees lessons learned

[unsub]

Someone mentioned the USB charger in front left pocket.

Hi Steve, I think Ericb [excuse me if I'm answering out of turn Ericb] was referring to the left saddlebag.There's a factory USB port there for iphone/ipod/USB stick. Ericb made an excellent point that it may be used for charging a phone too. I haven't tried it on any other phone platform other than an Iphone, but if it charges any platform by USB that's a great tip.

Thank you guys I don't know why I never thought of that. I am a tech guy at work and I should have thought of that. I put a usb stick in there and never thought about it again.


Thank you,

Steve

Buy yourself a Camel Back and keep it with you. It comes in many sizes and can save your life. Having lived in Texas for 34 years I started using them when ever I ran or went mountain bike riding. I am now using it again on my hikes in the Chattanooga mountains this week. At 90 degrees or more, you can become an accident very quickly.

I have ten loaded mags I carry. Three on me.

I'm all about the loaded mags on my person.....rounds in a box or loaded mags in a saddlebag are "not easily accessible" in a tactical move & shoot scenario - at least not ones I've trained for.
Also, one side of the bike is going to be used initially used as a shield until more cover can be scurried to....
Be very interested to discuss over several beverages in Franklin.
Going to be a great time.

Stro I always worry about how much extra ammo to carry. I've settled on a 50 pack in each bag. Wife complains I'm taking up space in her bag. Told her I'm balancing the bike. She still complained. Told her , shooting starts you're on your own. Now we have two 50 packs in each bag.

Laughing. Out. Loud.

Teach I'm having second thoughts about this rally. I may have to put a hitch on and buy a trailer. A week away from home may be like gearing up for a three gun match. My AR and Benelli are kinda long. Maybe I could mount a couple scabbards......................and the ammo requirements could be large.

Do what others have done while traveling to a destination on a motorcycle... use UPS and send a package to yourself.

I wish I could think like that Will. Dang that's a good idea.
