We can ride all year and not see another rig. 

On our way to the USCA National in Maine last year, we thought we would see sidecars on the way. At least a few when we got to Maine. We never saw another until we pulled into the Topsham Fairgrounds. We didn't see another on the trip home, and we were gone for three weeks or so.

On our way to the USCA National in Arkansas, we didn't see any other rigs until we stopped in Mena to do laundry and saw two drive past. We turned this into another three week jaunt.

We saw another rig near Indiana Dunes State/National Park on June 14!

We waved, he waved, but we were going in opposite directions and didn't stop. It looked like an older BMW with a Steib sidecar. But I could be very wrong.

This means we saw one more rig that usual. Yippee! They are out there! But it gets better. Two more sighted on our latest adventure.

July 17, somewhere past York, PA. Saw a rig that looked like a Ural. Had a guy driving, a woman on the bike, and a guy in the sidecar with a big dog behind him. Not kidding.

July 23, on Route 43 in Bucks County, Mechanicsville area? We were in the motorhome with rig on the trailer, stopped and arguing with the GPS.

Is this anyone on the forum? Have you seen any other rigs in the wild?
