i went to dunefest at winchester, it wasnt a bad drive at all, towing my cruiser on the trailer behind it i maintained 55ish the entire time, only on the long hill coming outa portland on I-5 and a couple long rollers did i slow down blow 45. it really wasnt that bad at all, i did have the luxury of stoping every 30 miles after eugene tho because the govener on my steering poped, 90lbs max pressure, and had to let the compresser cooldown. but all in all it was a wonderful drive.

i did put like 200miles on the deuce out on the sand, and made enough to cover my gas pulling people out ( one dude payed me 150bucks to pull his truck out to the road and then go back in an pull his 32ft bumper pull toy hauler to new spot because the ignition modual on his powerstroke died and couldnt move it). you really have to take the deuce out there its tons of fun, 15lbs in the front tires, 15lbs in the outside dualies, and 50lbs in the inside duals didnt have trouble at all. couple hills gave me trouble but all is well.

ive also gone to sandlake with it twice, i could do the beach hill, but the bowl was not going to happen(least going up it) once again there i made almost enough to pay for my fuel, so i love taking the deuce to the dunes. it pays for self =)
