I had a great weekend with my 16 yo. son riding the LTD550 we picked up for low dollar. The bike performed flawlessly, with only a chain adjustment that we over looked on the outset. No sweat.
Both bikes performed perfect. I swapped out the tins from my LTD1000 for this tour. I'm the worst when it comes to scratching paint, so my cherried out '78 tins are boxed up at home. The 1000 carried the load with authority averaging 40+ mpg. The 550 averaged 60+ even with some spirited back country riding from us 'sippi boys. :woohoo:
Camping weather was perfect, locals were super friendly, park officials were a HOOT, and there was even a live band at the lake pavilion Satty night for the Fat Tire bike club meet this weekend.
Bill was pretty keyed up about the whole KZRider flag relay and I really had planned on him coming up on Satty to camp and ride all weekend. The ride he made up from Houston and back was huge. Hope you're doing well today Bill
. I know I'm pretty well beat, but it is a good feeling.

Uhh, yeah. This leg was completed 4 1/2 months ago guys. It'd be best to follow up in the current leg thread... 
:laugh:
Sunny and 70 here yesterday. Riding the Kaws, we were. Yup, riding the Kaws.
