Overland Expo: Official Daily Update Thread

[Every Miles A Memory]

After the first day of just Documenting the show grounds, I went for the artsy feel and tried funky angles

Here are a few of my Favorites from My Galleries of the Show

Travis's Ride was pretty impressive upclose and this kid has some SERIOUS fabrication skills

Pat, you're giving me Lens Envy. :sombrero: (well, gear envy really )

. . .but I wanted a few creature comforts that the motorcycle doesn't afford (like a queen sized bed and refrigerator) that the FWC does.

Angling for that PR position with FWC, are you Brian?

Tom, sometimes too much gear can cause a problem when trying to go light:Wow1:

People wonder how I keep my girlish figure and why my wife is built like a linebacker? When lugging this much gear around, you tend to get quite the workout

More to this story for sure... most likely better saved for around a real fire.

What surprised me was how many rigs, not just this Camel 110, were trailered in. Somehow contradicts the Overlanding theme.

We asked the owner about this. He said he drove it to Colorado last year from LA and it was the longest drive of his life. Comfortable cruising speed was 50 mph and loud. I wonder if it has lower gearing than a regular 110?

But his amber lens covers have to go.

Dude........... :Wow1:
Bring that gear and a can of Deep Woods Off and you're set for UPO2010

There's an Unlimited Rubicon Diesel running around this area that's pretty cool ---- but this thing is a close second:

How does the soft top work with this roof rack?

Nah. But if I could get my hands on a Granby "shell" . . . or even a Hawk with the extended bed option . . .
