The Moki Dugway had some fresh repairs from wash outs. Loose deep gravel is not the rocket's friend.

Ha Ha, its not the coyote, its the giant rain storm that's going to make me miss out on riding the million dollar highway in Co. I have to hold up here in Cortez. Waste some time tomorrow riding around here. And try to bail out on 40 east Thursday morning.

Where do you call home base ? It seems you are coast to coast in your travels . Do you carry a gas jug ? That 125 miles to next service sign would have me sweating bullets. Also you are the perfect guy to ask , how many miles do you get out of a set of tires ? Love this thread envy your travels wish you the best . Happy motoring .

I live in Ct. I brought 3 extra gallons with me for this trip. I think I'm at about 5 times now that I filled up with zero miles left on the range display. yeah, I would have been sweating too without the reserves. I scrubbed new tires (Exedras) the morning I left. So we'll see how they look, and the mileage ,when I get home. I think I'm at about 5300 so far.
