I know a couple TCVRer's that are doing the same from MN.

Wish I was one of them....stupid work......but it's nice to have a paycheck too.

Just got a new:
Rear Tire (E4)
Rear bearings and seals (Damn bearings are $50 a/piece)
Rear caliper (mine would hangup tight after the pads were installed)
New rear pads
New belt. (this piece of crucial rubber is as expensive as the rear caliper)

OUCH - glad I have a paycheck! But, preventative maintenance is key - especially with 90K on it and not want to encounter issues in the middle of Knowheresville on a long ride.

It's not much different than a regular ride.
There are a lot of places along the path that are 500+ miles.
All of them are more than 300mi from here so it sounds like an easy Gold Ride.
