    Loaded the Bobcats when it was upper 30’s, perfect weather. Loaded the JCB’s at 80 degrees and 1000% percent humidity, sweat my ### off. 9DD2778D-2DA2-40B3-B532-F46E9898D0BC.jpeg A8BFC0D8-8F21-44B2-A983-D5D4CCE93E6F.jpeg

    Edit: I did move that front chain forward on the first one to get it off the track.

    That's it! Is there no place you people haven't been?!?

    So I came through Mt. Savage. The lady, Sue, said if I keep going, there's a 12' tunnel, so go back to Mt. Savage to pick up the interstate. I'm 11' 7". Not sure how finished the roof of the tunnel is, so I didn't chance it. Have you been in that tunnel?

    Just a guess here. She probably said something because they have had calls on trucks getting stuck or making contact with the structure. You probably did the right thing going around.

    Im 13’ so I hadn’t bothered to look at that overpass. Also I go a back way in, not across 68 so it wouldn’t help me personally to go in or out that way any way.

    based on the “correct” way in, I’d be surprised if that low bridge route was thrilling in a truck anyway lol

    Oh yeah. Her kid is a firefighter, and I guess he's always having to help rescue these guys.

    What gloves are you running during the Summer? I buy deerskin gloves locally, and they're comfortable, and great for dexterity, but they only last a couple months.
