How much water baddog do you bring? See right now I am already a pussy as i would prob need to carry at least 4 gallons.  Way more than needed cause I have to feel safe. Actually that aint that much water, ok.. 3 cell phones.. for backup.
Tanner ran short on what water he took with him on foot and it caught up to him b4 he could get back to base.
So yeah, gotta respect heat. |
I think I brought two 12 oz bottles. We stopped in Barstow for gas and water, then watered up about half way between there and Vegas. Not enough water.

i was wondering if the bat wing helped or hurt. i noticed you have the deflectors on the crash bars and was wondering about those in the heat also. but yeah, i went through with no windshield/fairing.

I did not even know I was dehydrated until after I arrived and tried to exert myself a little. Immediately felt like someone put my head in a vise. The deflectors have vents I can open and close. I think they are probably of more use in the cold.
