I have to make a call on Monday and see how close to delivery it is, so I can make a confirm on the trip date. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 561 Posted August 2, 2011 No news is good news. Some parts needed to finish the construction of the hauler were on backorder to the manufacturer, so now it looks like I will have to postpone the trip until September. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wanna be 0 Posted August 2, 2011 Sorry that your toy hauler is not done yet. Actually I think Sept would be better for riding. Keep us in the loop for Sept. I have 0 clearance on my valves so will have plenty of time to replace them now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karlaeda 0 Posted August 3, 2011 Yep, will give me time to prep too! I don't assume this would be big bike friendly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 561 Posted August 3, 2011 Yep, will give me time to prep too! I don't assume this would be big bike friendly? Well, not as friendly for big bikes a s smaller ones, given the terrain and the altitude. There was a group of big bike adventure riders out there when Woodsie and Eric were up there last month and they were giving at least some of trails a go. Two years ago, I took Piratemonkey on a tour of all the fire roads and some of the singletrack trails when she was riding her TE450 which she wasn't comfortable with on the rockier, tighter trails. We found plenty of easy and scenic stuff to explore that year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PastaPilot 17 Posted August 3, 2011 Yep, will give me time to prep too! I don't assume this would be big bike friendly? There are many, many miles of fireroad and two track to explore in the area. And the paved roads are fun to ride if you run out of dirt roads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsfox 0 Posted August 3, 2011 The Toyhauler will be worth the wait!!!....and If work schedule cooperates..I'd love to join you in september... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 561 Posted September 1, 2011 More bad news and delays. The dealer called me today and told me that the trailer is scheduled to be delivered on the weekend of the 17th. It came in this week after a delay in production due to back ordered parts. It was originally scheduled to be delivered this weekend, except that there was a batch of trailers that came in just before it that were scheduled to be delivered last week....but most of those had to go back east, so they didn't go until this week....so now deliveries are a week behind. I don't think that I can get away in the month of September because of the delay, and because of medical appointments for my father towards the end of the month. Just wondering if anybody wants to go around the beginning of October. ??? Or should I just scrap the trip and plan for next summer? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
