Chop chop hombre.

We’ve got a date with a summit soon.

Roger that. I might do a sacrifice to the axle gods and tape my soul to the frame and call it good.

I won’t be late

Met @Ditcherman this am

And came along for the ride.

We are waiting for @solomrus and then will get back on road.

Thinking Stony Pass tomorrow

 

[OlYellr]

At the hotel, thought I’d do a qick advance and will do a full blown lean drop Monday- maybe Sunday night. So much easier not getting 3rd degree burns with the distributor

I got basically an average 15.2 MPG driving from basically Omaha to Sharon Springs KS.

Here was the setting (and vacuum was bad = 11)

The low RPM was a blind guess from something dumb I did to my car earlier in the week but haven’t posted.

Set it to 11 degrees and 800 rump. Starts so much better. Vacuum jumped to 16+. Good enough for today and Sunday.

I have this same timing light…. So I read the low idle. But. 825? That’s not low?… besides what is .90?

Duh! I’m up side down….hahaha

Rus caught up

Random shot.

Made it to Gunnison, CO. Tired. Time for food, beer and a shower

Yellr did ok today.

Going to do trails/passesover the Continental Divide tomorrow into the Silverton/Ouray area depending how much play time on the passes

Here in the east…Gunnison, CO is often sampled on TV as the coldest spot in the country during those cold winter days. Nice trip you have going on

I’m digging the can and the cooler. Where did you get the can?

 

[OlYellr]

after trails today. Thought would be a good time to think about my bucket list.

Just add a friend and stir it up. - cheers Reverend @RevISK

I’m digging the can and the cooler. Where did you get the can?

i think I got that at one at JerryCan.com

(I have two other ones but think that one is from them). Their spouts are ok right now, (my dad wants to buy one from them but the spouts in stock are plastic with metal flex tip - the spout out of stock stock ones are better IMO)

@Plains Cruiser tight me to use my phone for better night shots. 10 pm local time, moon peaking through…

YELLR is resting for another day

 

[OlYellr]

Lead 2 trails today.

Some random shots of the day.

Will be bigger description after all this is over.
