Stealth camping in the remote desert with a recumbent trike! 

Thanks for your reply 👍

Do you run into goathead thorns?

No, no goathead thorns in that specific area. I do watch out for them though. If you know what they look like, they're pretty easy to spot. Google goathead thorns to see what they look like. I also run Marathon PLUS tires on my trike. They have a sure-gaurd blue inner rubber built in to the tires. Oddly enough though, I once got a slow leak from riding through them once. I was scratching my head on how I got a slow puncture in my Marathon PLUS tires. It was sorta on the sidewall of the tire. Those goathead thorns usually grow on the side of the road and out on sidewalks Oddly enough.

I hate those things, having run over thousands of them over the years. My Schwalbe Marathon PLUS tires have never gone flat from them, but my Schwalbe Jumbo Jim tires on my Full Fat off-road trike flattened within minutes from goathead contact (I got four flats from them in two days in the Mojave Desert, ugh). They sometimes like to hide under fall leaves that have piled high on sidewalks and paved areas ... run over them not even knowing they are lurking beneath the beautiful leaves. steve
