Im going to be staying in dispersed sites for up to 14 days, no amenities in that situ. I will do intermittent stays w services at other camgrounds. Im going for fully self sufficient. Sawyer water filter-(if needed), solar charging capabilities along w power convertors, solar led lights, stc. I used to travel with just what I could strap on my bike for years...Im changing that for Me. My Tunes will consist of a 7 watt Mighty Dwarf, an MP3 player w 16gb and 4- 10,000mAh power banks & I- 60,000mAh power bank...i have gas grill, gas burner, electric burner, etc. Pretty much everything I could think of...Admittedly, overkill for sure. Coleman WeatherMaster 6 tent, coleman 4 in 1 mattress, queen size sleeping bag, the works...and yeah, just for me.
Yup, Im upgrading tires this week to 6 ply, i have an appt at end o month to drop off trailer for last mod. I will have all of March to get in some shakedown runs & I will have plenty of time to work out proper loading.
Im staying on State & County highways, no interstates unless necessary, I am in no hurry. Wanna see the lil towns. And it may offset some of the loss of gas mileage w the trailer if Im cruising at 55-60 vs. 65-75...maybe not, but I will see some interesting towns and can hit lil local restaurants vs McCrap,
