Wow! What a wonderful Sunday view of the beach/ocean and Okracoke to have as we ate lunch today. Such a great way to celebrate sweet Maggie's b-day letting her run on the beach! I loved the music choice for today...perfect for Okracoke! That IS a long ferry ride...I'm glad it wasn't too rough in the rain.We did that crossing one summer night with a full moon. It was unplanned (with the moon phase) but very pretty. My pups do sleep with me (a camping treat for the big girl...she sleeps in a crate at home😆). Great campground review! Such a peaceful time to spend with you guys today. I love you guys! Be safe and have a great week!❤️🙏Jane😊

Very nice scenery and beach. Thank you for this video. Hope you had fun there and baggie too! Thank you for this video. Looking forward to seeing next video. Sorry it took long to see this video. I was busy with family with them being here do to my mom ms funeral. We had to wait to do it now because of covid. The family most left yesterday 2 left Tuesday. When you said people had to take cold showers that’s sad that there was no hot water. But what can you do? Hope you have a great rest of the week and see you soon! Thank you again for this video.

Hi guys, great video. Happy Birthday Maggie! Sorry guys I usually have a joke or funny comment but it hasn’t been a great weekend. Our little girl has just started yelping when she gets up from her bed or tries to jump on our bed. I think it’s her back legs but we will check with the vet next week. Her breed are known to have hip displacement so we are a little worried about that. We were told that her breed usually live from 10 to 13 years old and our little girl is 10. Stay blessed and safe guys. ❤️🇨🇦❤️ Cheers!!!

We were on Ocracoke last summer during hurricane teddy. The road to the Hatteras ferry terminal over washed and we were trapped for 5 days. The national park campground floods during the over wash events and we had to change sites.

Thanks again for a quiet moment of Zen on a Sunday morning. I look forward to your adventures no matter where you go because of the peaceful, calm time your videos bring. Happy Birthday to the Magster. Looks like she had the most fun on this trip. She really is living her best life along with you two. I am pretty sure y’all already know this but it seems like you’ve found the key to a happy life. Living in a beach town myself, I know the power of time spent watching the waves roll in and back out again. There is something soothing about that if you let your cares recede and live right in that moment. We’re hoping the 3 Mile Bridge will re-open next week in time for the long weekend. It has been shut down since September after Hurricane Sally ripped some barges loose that damaged the bridge and the new parts that were under construction. If it opens up, we are hoping to make a trip out to Santa Rosa Island with our son and his family. We’ll pack a lunch and head for Langdon Beach (near Ft. Pickens) and go in for some beach therapy. Good for what ails you.....as long as you remember the sun screen! 😉 See y’all next week in another chapter of your ever unfolding story.

I have a question about your E Bikes. I bought 2 Rad Minis after being encouraged by the ease with which you ride your bikes and how much you obviously enjoy them. I bought the Hollywood Rack, as recommended by Rad, but I cannot load the bikes on to the rack myself. My husband just lifts them up and makes it look easy. I know you have a Thule rack, and I have a few questions to ask you, if you don't mind. Can you open your back doors with the rack released to the downward position? Do your bikes wobble around when you drive? Can Lynn load the bikes by herself if she had to? We are in our late 60's and have a RAM Promaster 3500. Thank you so much for always having practical solutions and honest advice.

Yes, we can open our back door with the rack released, but we do have step extension does make easier. We had to put an extension on the Travato to make it work on that van, here’s a link to a video that shows more about the Thule rack if you are interested ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a3-mA0VvxgE.html. The rack does come with a ramp that would make loading the bikes easier for me to do by myself, but we don’t use them. I cannot lift the bikes by myself either, it is something we usually do together but Owen has done it by himself. The hitch on the Revel is more sturdy than the Travato and helps a lot with any wobbling or moving of the bikes as we are driving down the road. I hope this help.

Absolutely love this video! You three are a treasure! How did you transport your RAD e-bikes on this trip without the trailer? Was looking for your Thule rack from a previous video at 14:10 in this video, but saw none. Had you taken the rack off at that point? Or did you carrying the bikes inside? If still using the Thule, do you have to remove the rack to open the back doors? We're considering the new Lectric XP 2.0 folding e-bikes, but are having a tough time figuring how we'd transport them on our Travato. Thanks, and keep up the great times! We look forward to each new video!

We did use the Thule rack on this trip. We had taken it off the van at 14:10. I’m going to attach a link to a old video that shows how we used the rack with our Travato, it does work the same with the Revel (with the revel we have a step extension and we don’t have to do anything for reinforcement) I hope this helps. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-a3-mA0VvxgE.html

@@VANTREKKINGlifestyle Outstanding! Answered a lot of my questions and since you had the T at that point, it was exactly what I needed. I know the Revel has a much stronger hitch than the Travato does. Did you end up reinforcing your T's hitch? Or using the straps? If not, was there any noticeable hitch bending after some trips with it? Seems the straps would be great just to stop the bouncing if for nothing else. It would scare me to have that e-bike investment doing a Happy Dance back there! Finally, how long was the extension, and how much total length does this assembly add to the back of the van? Thanks again Owen! Really appreciate you taking the time to respond.
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle 3 года назад
No we never did reinforce the hitch. We did use 2 straps to connect the bike rack to the door hinges. But, that makes it a pain to open the doors. The hitch extension was 8 inches. Nose to tail it made us a little over 23 feet with the bikes and rack and extension on. Will help anytime you need it. Thanks for being with us.

We feel pretty safe traveling with our eBikes. We have locks on the bike rack to the hitch and also the rack itself has a lock for each bike where it is attached and then we also have two Titanium locks that we wrap around each bike and then we cover them. I do feel better when we take the trailer and the bikes are not exposed. thanks for the question.

@@VANTREKKINGlifestyle Can I ask what brand & model of titanium locks you use? I was thinking whatever lock I choose for my ebike, I'm going to have to carry around in my saddle bag if we bike around a small town. I was also looking into the bike locks with an alarm that goes off if someone tries to cut into the cable or even shakes around the lock.

Hi Owen, Lynn, and Maggie - question for you - how do you make sure your power is good enough to cool Maggie while you are off on your adventures away from the van (especially when boondocking? We have a Travato and when not hooked up to power, we worry that our pups may get too hot or that the power will cut off. We got a Blink Camera from Amazon that has a temperature gauge that we can check, but we were just wondering how you guys do things? Thanks!
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle 3 года назад
When we had the Travato we used a Pet monitor but that you can set to send you a text when the temperature get above a certain temperature, but there was a monthly fee associated. We haven’t used it with the Revel since we can run the AC and we haven’t had the Revel in the hot part of summer. We will probably start using a monitor because I do worry about the AC turning off for some reason. We may check out the Blink camera, do you like it and feel it is realiable?

Love watching your travels. When you leave the RV I am assuming the AC is running for Maggie. Do you have an alarm warning of ACFailure while away from your rig? Just curious. Am shopping for. a class b and thinking about everything as I have a dog too.
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle 3 года назад
Thank you for watching and connecting with us. No we do not have an alarm. We used the Waggle pet temp warning device for 2 years… but it only works when there’s a Verizon network available so when we traveled to Alaska we paused it and never started back. We know our rig… we know what the batteries will do and how long they’ll last in most situations. We get back well before that deadline and feel fine. But that also depends on temps. When it’s 70-75 outside and we can park in the shade or there’s a breeze Maggie is fine with nothing on. 75-85 and we run A/C and leave a fan blowing on her. Hotter than that and we don’t go unless we’re plugged in to power or she’s very close to us so we can check on her. Hope this helps.
