[@nathancereska8215]

Good thing you had your breaks to get you through the day. Pissed you tube didn’t notify me you posted two new videos. I’ll keep an eye out for day three

[@RaminShamoon]

love them green breaks 🤣

[@JesseSoriano-pf8ok]

Nice Trek

[@redsorgum]

I was working that day. I’m a window cleaner, and I had ladder work to do. Let’s just say it was a lot of fun. It was definitely a bad day for those who wore a toupee or did a combover……..😉😬 I was looking forward to this trip.

Arizona dust storms in California. Crazy. Good persistence.

[@HOBOTECH]

It's only downhill from here...😂

[@Eric_Tennant]

Day 3 indeed has some ups and downs.

Triler tipping over is a real good reason to have a 2 wheel trailer.

[@Eric_Tennant]

Somewhat yea, but this wind would of flipped it as well.

I have a burley nomad trailer & looking to build a bike camper with solar.

[@Adventures4vida]

I have the same trailer and modifying it to carry my cat carrier where your solar panel is. Clamp on kick stands, you can get some for kids bikes that are really short, and will make it so you can stabilize all 4 sides.

[@Eric_Tennant]

Hmm may have to try that as my 2020 extension legging failed at 50mph wind. I had suck high hope in my extension legs.

[@Adventures4vida]

@@Eric_Tennant you can get rear mounted greenfields that have a clamp and are meant to be cut to size. Or a direct mount one for smaller folding bikes, and just drill a hole in the coho frame. Im gonna try the greenfields first.

[@doriandryden]

in off next 2 days, battery charged, i depart in the wee hours on quest II 😎

[@Papi-power]

The wind stops early morning

[@Papi-power]

Dude I stayed at that same campground lol but I was heading the other direction

[@LightsOnMultiMediaMindArts]

If it isn't one damned thing, it's another. At least you're resourceful.

[@pdxevgrin]

h/b = hiker/biker camp not hike a bike haha. Huge difference. One is hiking a bike up a hill, the other is a $5-10 campsite.

[@Eric_Tennant]

Was next to the RV dump area. The wind saved me from the smell.

[@luckylarry5112]

Do you have a link for the over glasses goggles? Needing them in a bad way. Love your vids, Thanks

[@richarddkearney]

With the wind blowing over your solar panels, how would that have been like if you were driving down the road? Would it have been dangerous? It seems like it would have been.

[@jamesguimond2271]

Is your batteries for your bike in the trailer?

[@Eric_Tennant]

Indeed

[@jamesguimond2271]

@@Eric_Tennant I’m building a solar bike camper. I have a Voltbike Yukon Core & got a burley nomad trailer

Damn California state parks are pretty crappy. I mean most states don't have amazing state parks, but damn you'd think Cali would be different. Oregon State Parks are seriously the best.

Hi. I would also like to bikepack using my prebuild ebike that has a bafang middrive. My concern is that I live in a country that is very sunny in the mornings, but will rain heavily in the afternoon (2:00PM onwards). The seller that I bought the ebike told me that I shouldn't ride the ebike when it's raining heavily because the electronics and the Bafang middrive will be damaged by the rain. Is this true? Because if that's the case, I can only ride for a few hours a day and have to find a place to camp around noon, which I find a bit disappointing. Sorry for my bad English. Thanks.

[@Eric_Tennant]

The motor and all wire connectors are water proof to a point. I have rode the Bafang BBSHD in a river. This did give me a error a day later so I cant recommend putting it under water; however rain is fine.

[@len4585]

@Eric_Tennant Thanks.
