Bowt as close as I get to a Harley is a helmet and gloves. I've never succumbed to the pressure.

We have a 7x14 box trailer that we call "Mark's Toy Box" (more like tool box). We have wheel locks and ratchet straps for the bikes, but the only time they were in there was for the move to Phoenix.

I seem to remember a few years back you were contemplating a RoadGlide. Is my memory incorrect

Trip should change the name (again) to the Vulcan Trailer Association. And change the motto to "it's not about the ride, it's about the destination".

I like to ride to as many destinations as possible, but sometimes trailering is the better choice. When we went to the National it worked out well to trailer since I didn't have a working bike at the time, we got to split the gas costs, plus we could drive a lot farther in a day. Its kinda nice to have a soda and a bag of chips in the truck while driving through a thunderstorm.
