Did a double take when we saw this while walking around NE Portland.
We had a tough rally day, today. After 8 wearying hours spent connecting the odo in the 103 heat yesterday and 5 hours of sleep, we hoped the external mount would stay on the wheel. Managed to find a tire repair place just as they were closing in Globe. To compound matters, the near bald tires spin in gravel and the DSC is working against us. Not sure how the tires will fare the rest of the rally. But on a brighter note, we crossed a ford with running water! The scenery is so unlike the verdant NW. Cactuses and rattlesnakes are everywhere! My hair is straight from lack of humidity.
It’s been a week of changes in the driveway. It’ll get a TimeWise mount (and likely a skidplate, if budget allows) in due time.
We headed down to Phoenix to run the AZ1000. 103 degrees today and a half case of water consumed.
