Man, I had an awesome time!  It was really good to meet everyone and put faces to forum handles.  Glad everyone made it out (somewhat) unscathed.  Thanks Ken and Glen and everyone else that helped organize this trip!

I was hoping to find this place....never dropped a marker and haven't seen in years.  We didn't find it until Sunday.

I feel bad now, knowing you had to inflate that time with a hand pump. I didn't feel bad while I was waiting in the shade at the gas station though.

@springer you really missed out man.... this ride was tailored perfectly to fit what you need!

A nice guy in a truck stopped by and let me use his full sized bike pump! That was very nice of him!

I was going to ask where you carried that big pump. I didn't see any luggage that would hold it.

I started the day with a 12V pump that failed on me. It's given me trouble free service for about 8 years up until Saturday. It's been all over the country with me, Canada and Ecuador too. I've used it to air up many of tires out in the middle of the woods. It's final resting place is the garbage can at Nick & Bubba's Beer N Bait Gas Station in Hohenwald, TN. It deserved better than that. I'm kinda sad now.

Last night I ordered an identical pump to replace it. The Slime 40001 Power sport Tire Inflator with SAE (Battery Tender) connector. I hope this one is as good to me as its predecessor was.

Yea, I know. It seems all I do now is go to a Doctor and ever once in awhile, I get a to short ride in.  :-[

I gots one of them.  Thanks to their primary product, I've never had to use it.
