and so did Jeff, Clover, and I. The trailer, sadly, will be taking up
landfill space likely somewhere in northern UT. A number of
conditions, the perfect storm, if you will, for fish tailing developed
just north of the Utah border. The trailer is no more. The Hell van
survived with a few dents but no structural damage. 99.9% of our
personal belongings in the trailer also survived. Pics will be forth
coming. If this had to happen, I'm sure glad it did it after IDSF and
not on the way there. Now we have an excuse to shop for a toy hauler.

Oh yes, and all four bikes also survived...this includes the one on
the trailer. Let's just say Jeff has a knack for securing things and
I hope I never pull a stoppie like the DR did! :-O

Wow!!! I'm glad to hear you're ok. The DR made it unscathed?

Wow. That coulda' been a lot worse, I'm sure you're thanking whomever or
whatever needs thanking at this point.

For whatever reason, the IDSF seems to claim a fair number of trailers
every year. Good luck on the replacement. I really like our TH, but
we're probably unusual in the way we use it. I've never had the bikes in
it (use the truck bed) and we went for smaller (18') rather than bigger.

I am so very sorry to hear about your trailer. It was in such a nice
condition and'all...
Very glad to hear none of you were hurt...a most important thing.
I'd like to say thank you guys for everything and the great dual
sport
ride to the Trinities.
I will get some of the few pictures I took posted soon.
Take care, Jeff
