I wanted to go.. But had a long time committed trip that was booked before the Black Pearl, Twisted Metal, event. It looked like a great Run.

I saved 9K on the Cig trailer. A close friend got a new Myco, I wanted one but it was 16k at the time, so I built a better one with drive guard.

Nice work on the trailer build.

It is a Titan, class 4, big enough for a 4000 pound boat.

Drive guard. Tyler at Castaway Customs made me a pad for the drive guard and fenders.

Ooops, it's Rum thirty.
