Today is the second day this year that we went over 90*...and I had a ton of stuff to do outside....
Had a couple of burn piles going.
Then had to finish putting up some splash guards and gutters. No pics. Boring, hot, miserable work. lol
Next up was getting a little more done on the Trike, in anticipation of our upcoming 40+ day ride around the USA. Link HERE.
Got the front wheel back on. The nut between the pad is in case someone accidentally hits the brakes while caliper is off the rotor.
Avon Trike Specific front tire on now...will give it a spin tomorrow.
Next up was a little attention to the Tour-Pak...
The TG is still under warranty, but I go so far over (like 2-3x over) the weight limit, it does not seem right to do a warranty claim.
The rear hinge was on it's last leg...very loose. No way did I want it failing and ending up ruining the Tour-Pak.
Replaced it with a new one, and everything is back tight now.

Usually you see them being sold either. Supposed to hold their value but...

Last week we got to Beale Street a bit early...
...No Other bikes were there! We checked out the weather and there was a 50% chance of thunderstorms, but we could not believe that at 5:30 there was no one else there. Crazy.
After a while some bikes and trikes started showing up.
A couple of home-built trikes...
...and another look.
Across from where we were enjoying our meal, Channel 24 was doing an interview...probably something to do with Memphis in May. They picked the slowest Bike Night we've seen in over 15 years to be there. lol
A few more bikes kept straggling in....
This is what it looked like, hardly any bikes or tourists, at 7:45 when we decide to head on back home.
That was our last bike night on Beale Street until sometime in July. This Wednesday we head out on our 40+ day Road Trip. I'll be posting photo's as we go in the Ride Report at this link-
