Re: Bike-accessory research
Mark RV, I looked at the survey and I think that the way that bikes are used by most in the US is much different than in The Netherlands. Here for most people they are for pleasure and or as a secondary means of transportation. One exception might be College students. In The Netherlands and other urban environments it is common for a bike to be a primary means of transportation. As a result you might find that the responses to your survey from the US are very different than from respondents in the EU or Asia. Good luck. By the way we our son is considering a semester to full year of study in Delft. It's a really nice place.497Views0likes0CommentsRe: Dogs in TT's

Un-hitching the thing every couple hundred miles so they can pee is not an appealing idea. I have to say that I did not read all of the replies on this post so I apologize if this is a repeat. We had a similar issue with our truck and was able to buy an extended shank for our Equal-i-zer hitch. It was not cheap but gave us the needed extra inches to open the tailgate when the TT is hitched. You should look into that as an option then the dogs could ride under the shell in the back.365Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2 1/2" Receiver Hitch and 2" Equal-I-Zer Shank
I have a Dodge with a Reese Titan hitch 2 1/2 inch. I use a sleeve on my 14K/1400 lb Equalizer and have not seen any evidence of deformation or spalling on the sleeve after several years. I would not worry about using the sleeve. Also if you end up with a different truck that has a 2 inch hitch you can still use your Equalizer. If you go to the 2.5 inch shank your options may be limited. Just my $.02455Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cooking and drinking water
We always leave with a full FW tank. At the CG we tend to not hook up to the connection but run using the on board supply then just re-fill the tank at the site as needed or before we go to the next place. Using the pump it is easier to make sure the pump is off before we leave the TT for the day. Much less change of a flood if a pipe or valve fails. Also we rarely have FHU sites.426Views0likes0CommentsRe: Moab- tips, suggestions?
