As a native Texan my working theory about Houston is a giant space cow took a dump from high orbit and it landed in a Texas bayou and that is how Houston came to be. Almost like the NYC of Tx. Yes, Been stuck in Houston traffic jams way too often. One of the most memorable was heading I 10 east, traffic stopped for a bit and two almost naked females walking west on I 10 east right by the truck.

@milemarkermike7234 3 года назад

Coach Bob: I ride a Goldwing and I have a fixed cup holder that has these rubber tenticles that would keep the cup in place! Also I bought a large yeti cup knock off at walmart and when I would start out on my ride I would put ice and water in my cup. Plus I would glue insulated aluminum foil to the lid to help deflect some of the heat. I could go gas to gas stop and have ice cold water. Plus vic could have a fixed cup holder with the same cup to have ice cold water! Yes! On your next ride get the water jackets and the yeti cups/. Your wife will love you for it!

@CoachBob3 3 года назад

I definitely have to get a better cup holder. I appreciate the advice. Yeah the water jackets would have been a blessing. We really only struggled that day. And to tell the truth..They'd have been worth it for one day!!! It was smoking'. Thanks for watching and being a part of the channel.

We find it cooler to where our jackets and keep the sun off our arms. We also have cooling vests for super hot days. You just dunk them in water (sink) ring out the excess water, zip them on and your next hour or so is much better. They only cost about $40 each. Mine is made by Fly, wife's is a Hyperkewc by Techniche International/Climate control products. You could have them shipped to your kid's place and have them for your return trip if you want. Stay safe. Enjoy your videos.

Sounds great! We were using underarmor style heat gear on some days.. we could've come up with a better plan for sure... I am learning a lot and comments like these help me immensely. We will be ordering some of that type of gear. Thanks for the kind words and help!!! 👍👍👍

Just wanted to say that I finally got to drive my rt limited and the shoulder pressure is executable and the saddle is awesome.

@JimsTrikeAdventures 4 года назад

Your cup holder should come with a foam insert kuzzie to hold bottles. I have the same one for years and it is perfect with the foam kuzzie. We hit those temps 109 for a few years in your same area. Get hyper Kewl wet vest. Will save your life and cool your core. Bring water bottle and a garbage bag. Put your vest in the bag and pour a bottle of water in it and let is soak for a few minutes.

@CoachBob3 4 года назад

The kuzzie went sailing on day 2 of the trip. Hahaha 😂 😂😂 time for a new kuzzie. We always carried a full case of water in the trailer and stayed as wet as possible for as long as possible. It was a great adventure!!!!

@DennysPlantBasedJourney 4 года назад

We hit 106 today... 108 last week. Living in the western part of Texas and eastern New Mexico you get used to it but mid day is brutal for anyone. Unfortunately, it doesn't cool down till around midnight. And that is just high 80s. It is rough to go for a ride in this heat. Gotta start early and finish early. Glad you guys made it through the area. But you did notice the beautiful area with the scenic views. Thanks for the videos. Looking to get an RT Limited in a couple of years after all this unrest and financial system stabilizes. I know that day you went through. It was sooooo hot.

@CoachBob3 4 года назад

The financial unrest is very difficult right now for sure.. I hope it settles soon and thing return to a happier and less stressful place. When all of that happens and you're ready .... getting a Spyder will definitely make your world a little less stressful... we love ours. Hot Hot Hot... yes sir... It sure is pretty out there though... God bless!!!

Hey Coach, sounds like you may be an ex-air traffic controller. Me too, courtesy of the USAF 1967 thru 1971. A great MOS. Loving the ride and your and Coach Vic’s determination. I use a Camelback on long rides and it works pretty well. Stay safe. Enjoy your visit!

@CoachBob3 4 года назад

Right on... I am in fact retire FAA ATC... I retired in 2013 and Coach Vic and I have been living the dream ever since. A camelback is an excellent idea. HMMM. The flexible H2O tubing......That would even work with my full face...cool 👍👍👍 Thank ya sir!!!!

@tomorrowriverryder351 4 года назад

@@CoachBob3 My first duty station was Hurlburt Field, not far from you. We lived in a tiny little fishing village called Destin. It looks a little different now, 53 years later. Reagan would've fired me if I'd continued in ATC after the service. A couple thoughts on the Camelback. I don't have a backrest but don't think it would interfere with the bag. You can add ice and it'll stay cold for much of the ride. Working the tube up into the helmet can be a bit of a pain sometimes but it does work. Coach Vic is a trooper and you guys are an inspiration!

@Buck1954 2 года назад

I'm a native Houstonian. I moved a bit west, so I could start from the country. I live around the 9 minute mark. When I ride that route, I use the old 90 highway that weaves in and out of I-10. As a rider, it's not the destination, but the ride getting there. I like to see the back country of places I visit.

@tripletreading6993 4 года назад

I live in northern E. Texas. The temps are at a point where shorts are almost a must, and that's early in the day or evening. How you two are managing pants, jackets and helmets is impressive. Stay safe, stay hydrated.

At points we were certainly questioning our sanity. LOL. It was a great day. Each day held it's own beauty, problems and laughter... the trip of a lifetime!!! We will... thank you for the encouragement!!!👍👍👍

@milemarkermike7234 3 года назад

Coach bob/vic: Before I went to the Badland lands of South Dakota. I bought a wet jacket that went under my joe rocket jacket. The interesting part about the whole ride I said to myself! Let's pull up the temperature because this does not feel too bad! To my surprise it was 99 degrees! Talk about a testimonial of the wet jacket! Get one and your future rides will be more comfortable!

@stoney3398 4 года назад

RAM makes an XL version of their cupholder. I got one for my wife's Spyder, and it works great. One problem I had with it was that the rubber grippers that come with it will come off if you use the super glue that they provide. Wrong kind of glue! Use contact cement correctly, and they stay put. And it works way better with taller water bottles. I use the one you have on my Triumph Trophy, and it works ok holding my iced coffee on the way to work, though. Nice vid! Stay cool as possible!

Thank you for you entertaining videos. I am slowly getting through them. I am trying to decide between a "retirement bike" Goldwing or Can-Am. I am a bit gun shy due to a mishap 10 years ago and thinking the safer bet might be the can-am. Trying to find a test drive in my area to see if I like it. Also concerned that I am hours away from a service place. Love you faith and your passion for others! Can I ask what you "coach?"?

@CoachBob3 4 года назад

Honestly this was one of my deepest fears. I have been very pleasantly surprised by the consistency of its operating temperature. I have been watching that temp gauge like a hawk and it has been "rock solid". With its large service interval we shouldn't have to do anything but drive. Im checking fluids daily. I am also observing the color change in the oil as the days go by. Nothing radical..completely normal... but watching everything very close. The Spyder has proven itself to be a continent crossing, touring monster!!!
