The KAT -Part Deux AND Hatfield McCoy Buffalo Mountain 7/18 to 7/26/2020

I thought we could get them through the Inn for some kinda deal? Or am I thinking of the stolen pig rally?

You can buy them at most stores in the area. Gas stations, convenience stores etc... You can buy them at Wingo’s from Kathy but I dont remember any deal

[Firebolter]

Yeah, you can get them at any store or gas station. Last time I bought mine across the bridge at the gas station. Nice having an online option.

BTW, I ordered some waterproof socks that should be arriving tomorrow. I'm hoping to avoid the "warm water immersion foot" that everyone had last time. I'll let people know how they are. Maybe I can get up to FRO to give them a good test ride before then.

I had that issue on the last KAT trip too. The last day or two I ended up sticking my feet in a plastic grocery bag and was perfectly comfortable. So if other measures don’t work that’s my 5 cent option.

How do folks secure bikes at the hotels? (if they can't easily be rolled into the room) Easy enough to get the Wolfman luggage off and bring in the hotel. Simple disc lock? Pack some sort of cable lock? Park next to Firebolter so they steal the nicer looking bike first?

How did you know?

Ha ha! Robert and I will lock our bikes together with a small CARBON CABLE I have. Disk locks are usless, they would just lift the bike up and sit it in the pick up!

If staying at the Hatfield McCoy in I feel sure Bill McCoy would be happy to store in his building for a reasonable donation.

At Hatfield isn't the probelem for me. Can put it back in the van. Its when we're out on the road on the KAT I'm concerned about.
I'll plan to bring a cable lock of some sort.

Ha ha! Anytime you are back in the States its yours.
