Adam, how big of trailer are you hauling and how many people are you willing to split with? Laura and I are thinking of going down.

Hopefully a 16 footer...If I can buy it in time. If not, I will borrow the shops 27 footer....would rather not but will do what I have to....Also....the MHome is supposed to sleep 7 but I think 5 would be a better number. So far I have myself and maybe Barry W. Still waiting to hear back from him.

You aren't by chance going to do the Zoom Zoom day at Infineon on Mon? I would be interested in maybe working something out but like I said I'm going to Infineon on Mon.

Depends on how many we get...figure the MHome gets 8mpg, and that we don't overload trailer, 598 miles to Willows, CA, $3.00 per gallon (avg), that's about $224.25 for fuel one way. Split 3 ways is $149.50 each for fuel, 4 ways = $112.12, 5 ways = $89.70.
Damn...maybe I need to find someone to haul my bike and fly down....

Adam! I hear that, we had a Lexus SUV, towing a large trailor, I would guess around 20', it was at the SUV's max capacity, and we got roughly 12mpg. Which is pretty good. With 5 people 3 bikes, and gear/tools. It still cost 430 bucks in fuel to T-Hill :confused: Which was great to have 5 people. :burnout:
Best of luck. I love thunder hill. BTW, another +1 for zoom zoom trackdays. They are awesome folks and run a VERY good show.

I hear it's iffy....it is said to be their rainy season. Would suck to pay $200 in track fees, drive all the way down there just to ride in the rain!!

Not sure what is up right now with getting to THill..trying to work out some bugs with the MHome. Might have to figure out something else. Will keep you posted. Working hard on this.
