Behind the wheel
No matter if your 19 or 91, there are no words to describe the joy when you slide behind the wheel. Happy touring!

Re: Behind the wheel
Might be 45 here tomorrow. Planning a 50 mile drive in the TT tomorrow. Bet it’s warm enough to disconnect the heater or open the windows...

Re: Behind the wheel
47 today. I finished the adjustment on my new Rocky mtn. Brakes. Lots of stop and go and in and out checking and adjusting. They work great. Looks like a drive to town before dawn for breakfast tomorrow. Rain may change my mind.

Re: Behind the wheel
Dallas...great to hear you got the RMs set up! Yep, does take a lot of tweaking, but once you got em, they're great aren't they! I got 'em on all my cars. Wouldn't leave home without 'em!

Re: Behind the wheel
It is a huge difference. Makes me want to get started on the TT. I have original Rockies for it. I need to fabricate the equilizer but that seems pretty minor after installing them on the RPU.
It was raining this morning so no early drive but 57 degrees later today and dry weather. I think I may take a long drive later today.

Were you driving on the equator again today? Or just showing off driving on your 2 left wheels?
