Bob’s inputs…

I received a nice email from my good buddy Bob on that last blog post a few minutes ago…

Looking good with the tool roll, Joe!

Only suggestions I would make would be:

Locking Pliers (aka: Vice Grip, or Channel Lock) – definitely good to have, but maybe consider using the 6” long nose version. The smaller snout will give more precise clamping as needed (smaller bolt heads, hoses) and can reach where the standard jaw may not reach 2. Bungee Cords or plastic zip ties.  Don’t weigh much, always handy to have 3.  2 or 3 foot section of duct tape.  I roll this on itself and unwind as needed.

Optional (but I always carry with me) is a Leatherman tool. Good to have the knife, pliers, saw, can/bottle opener, etc. in one handy tool.

Looks like a great ride! One of these days when the four letter word (“work”, not “wife”) doesn’t get in the way, I hope to do one of these trips with you!

Bob, those are all great suggestions.  Thanks for taking the time to send them to us.  And just let us know when you’re ready to accompany us on any of our rides.   They are all fun.   I think we are up to 9 people on our short run into Baja at the end of this month.  It will be my first long ride on the TT250, and I’m excited about that.
