After the snowfall Saturday morning in Chadron, NE, and a sketchy
foredast, we decided not to risk riding over the mountains. We rented
a truck to truck the bikes over the mountains. Luckily, there was a
UHaul with one 10' truck in Chadron. Of course, that meant we needed a
ramp. As luck would have it, we found a Honda dealer in town. He had a
wooden ramp in front for loading/unloading bikes from trucks. But
would we find a ramp in Idaho Falls? The place was already closed. Lo
and behold the owner sees us and comes out to see what's wrong. He
sells us a nice, aluminum, 7' ramp to take with us (more on the ramp
later). Of course, this means we need ratcheting tie-downs, so on to
Walmart. Loading the bikes was only mildly eventful. I have
experience with my Dad's trailer. So at 6 AM Sunday morning we left
Chadron, headed for Casper and the west. [REL:15]
