Subject: REFLECTOR:Moved the nonflying Velocity 3400 miles
Okay! I did it....I moved the non-flying Velovity 3400 miles of goat =
trails (they call those roads?) without any obvious damage and only =
three stops for rack repairs due to raod damage. Greeley, Colorado to =
Wasilla, Alaska in seven days of extremely rough riding roads. Only one =
bridge with inadequate clearance in Idaho (but it was OK in the center =
of the bridge width). Incredible scenery...hope to see it from the AIR =
someday! Despite the roads it appears the Velocity arrived =
unscathed.....I'll know more when I can get it down off of the trailer =
and inspect the canard bulkhead to see if it was damaged from the =
constant sledge-hammering of the poor roads....The Velocity is one TOUGH =
machine! Hope to be flying by spring! THANX to everyone for their =
suggestions and advice!
I should have taken some Velocity business cards along for =
distribution as it generated an extreme amount of interest/lookers all =
the way! Jeff Clough
