22 States - Camping in San Jose Still - May 24, 2022 -

[@DIYKauai]

it would be poetic in some ways if you could have the army cot as the trailer base and the panels for the roof. Your trip out was magic with the finding of that 2nd panel just when you needed it.

[@CarlinComm]

Definitely an interesting idea. About a year ago I was thinking about it as a tiny teardrop trailer.

[@DavidJohnson-qr5he]

Looks like your really ready to hit the road

[@CarlinComm]

Yeah it's nice here but I don't do well sitting still.

[@gwenlaursen6460]

Looks like you are relaxing a bit. Glad your shoulder is feeling better. Sprinklers are not your friends on this trip! Take care. Looks like a lovely place you are staying.

[@CarlinComm]

Yes it's probably a good thing to rest a couple of days before the big ride.

[@DIYKauai]

I create a folder system on my backup drive and manually put the pics in there. If you use an automated program to transfer pics and video they will put them in a wierd place.

[@CarlinComm]

Yeah the GoPro app has not been my friend.

[@DIYKauai]

@@CarlinComm It's an extra step to take the card out of the camera and put it into the laptop but it is worth it because then you can put the pics exactly where you want them.

[@CarlinComm]

@@DIYKauai worst is I only have a phone no laptop on the trip so definitely pushing the limits!

[@DIYKauai]

@@CarlinComm We appreciate whatever you can capture!

[@CarlinComm]

@@DIYKauai thanks! It's a tough market, every 12 year old has a drone now!

First

[@CarlinComm]

Hahaha you win the internet!

[@BreeUSA]

@@CarlinComm lol, when I see solar panels used on e-rides I'm in. I use direct solar and PV daily. I have enjoyed following your journey and technical challenges along the way.

[@CarlinComm]

@@BreeUSA well thank you for following along! I enjoy the company! Let me know if you have any questions!

[@webbtrekker534]

There is a guy who has been making a bunch of lightweight bike trailers like you have described; kzbin.info?search_query=homemade+bicycle+trailers A bunch of others also including you.

[@CarlinComm]

That's been some of my most watched videos, apparently it is something people are interested in!
