    Just wrapping things up with getting things ready for hauling out to Fruita at the end of next week.

    We opted to bring a trailer larger than my 14' with a V-nose.

    Ended up with a 22' enclosed snowmobile trailer that one of the guys coming has.

    We had some metal plates welded up, and used the track to "clamp" the chocks down.

    So 7 Bikes in the trailer, with enough room for gear and to walk around the front and rear of the bikes. Hoping this will work out well!

    The wheel shoes say that you do not need tie downs, but we are going to run some loose, not really compressing the suspension.

    On a long drive like that, would rather not find out the hard way that something failed!

    I'm trying to upload photos but for some reason they keep getting flipped on their side!

    I misspoke in saying “welded up”.
    It is flat stock steel, cut to length, drilled, and tapped.
    Not really sure why I said welded?
    Maybe I was too frustrated by the upload photos getting turned sideways.
    I have 2 other pictures that stay on their side.
