I'm leaving soon for a trip from Austin out to Deming NM to visit a friend - I10 and high speed most of the way. I may detour thru northern NM on the way back, but right now it is really cold up there.

WooHOO Just got back from the above trip thru northern NM and down south to Deming. We didn't have much time so we were on the move and moving fast. From Cimarron, NM we took I25 all the way to Deming in one day and after a short visit there, we took I10 back to Austin - nearly 700 miles in one day. I didn't test the trike at the 80 mph speed limit, but did ride many miles at 75. My fuel mileage was 32 at 70 mph and dropped very little at 75 mph. The only problem on the ride was my rear end that hurt after about an hour or so, but since gas stations were about 100 miles apart, I was able to get off the trike often. I wonder if I need a new seat (it's the original 08 model) or just more time in the saddle on longer rides. Glad to be home, but it's raining today so I can't get out to clean the trike up which got really dirty during a brief rainstorm in Lubbock.
