========================================


WE ARE STILL TOO FAR OUT FOR ANY FORM OF REAL WEATHER ACCURACY .... it is all guesstimates right now.   The forecast tightens up at 2 weeks out but it will always say some chance of showers (mainly because up in the mountains there is always that chance).   Look at the individual days for the amount of precipitation, those 0.2" days are a heavy morning mist which also always happens all the time up in the mountains.

We've been through this before so you will always get you a 10 day out cancellation warning in case of fairly well predicted heavy bad weather (in time to get your money back on a cabin reservation).   If you are tenting, you will get cold at night and a bit dew wet each morning -- count on it.   So bring a bag and a blanket or two.

..... and count on it, you will meet up with a rain cloud at least once during the trip.   Stop and eat lunch or dinner, the road will be drying by the time you are done.  

Or ride on and get soaked, we have done it both ways.   (you dry out in an hour or so anyway)

shoot, we rode through a downpour moist of the way from San An to Kerrville, I ain't all that scairt of a little shower
working out how to tie down 2 S40s in the back of a Ranger in case we can't borry a trailer, now that's a bit more worrisome

Oh no, I just read what you wrote Art. You got more redneck on me all of a sudden>

Ok, here goes the big 100. Drum roll please.

congratulations!
I'm pretty versatile, part redneck, part city boy, part crazy
my bed is 6 ft, my S40 looks to be 7, might require tailgate down, I do NOT care for that idea, maybe angling them will get er done
I really would prefer if I can borrow that trailer though
or better yet, talk the owner into coming with

OK, never bent a sidestand yet, (and used to haul them as part of my job) but will do
My lack of enthusiasm is that I usually use the front of the bed to set the front tire against so it does't turn, with one bike backward and no tailgate to prop the front tire against, that worries me
if the front tire turns thing can go wrong
