I went to Council Grove Ka. about a 1020 miles front door to front door. The weather was great and I camp on the lake that the flint hill ralley is on. But they told me about two camp grounds down from the side car ralley site. The side car did great with the Harely( 60 to 80 mph.) just a littel pull to the left on some of the roads. I'm going to try a littel adjust when we get out of the hay fields, frist things frist. Next trip in a coupel week's if we get the frist cutting done. The Texas sidecar is GREAT.RUDY

Great Rudy!!
Maybe you can make it back to Council Grove for the Rally Aug27 to 30. It is really a nice place to visit.

You know a long time ago I trained men to march and so forth, And some of them didn't know right from left. I guess I've got the same problem. My car pulles to the right just a littel, just enouft to be unconfortable.rudy

If the sidecar tire isn't showing an unusual wear pattern just a little more lean-out will compensate for the wind drag at 60 to 80 MPH.

No ware what so ever on my hack tire. I went to Kan.50 to 65 MPH, but now the speed limit on Kan. 2 lanes is 65 MPH. I road up most of the way by myself till I found a lost soul who had never been to a Guzzi ralley at Coucil Grove, his max speed 62 mph. So that was my speed the last 3 hours. Then Sat. by myself I road to the Harley dealer at Junction city. They were having Women appreation day. They were giving out freebe's and one thing was yoyo's, a guy next to said that's because their's nothing eles to do in Kan. I road back Sunday with Guzzi rider's(Old Gray Beards) they went 65 to 75 mph I had to 80 + somer time just to catch up. The RANGER had about 80 lbs. in her. And I will try a littel tip out.Rudy
