Tuesday - We arrived in Helena, MT, on Sunday. We stopped at the lunch destination of the Montana BMW club in Phillipsburg. We then continued on to our friend’s home in Helena. They have an RV parking spot next to their shop.
I set up the JPC-12 antenna to get ready for Winlink Wednesday and got my weekly check-in message sent on 40m.
Wednesday - We headed east today towards our overnight stop at a HH in Billings, MT. It is the Beartooth HD dealer. They have a nice, large parking lot on the west side of the building. And, 50amp power! I picked up a 40oz insulated cup with the Royal Enfield logo (on sale!) as HH encourages you to give some business to the host.
They are also a dealer for these Jeep looking UTVs made in India. They have a turbo diesel engine and are physically about the same size as the early Jeeps.
Very utilitarian but ridiculously expensive at $22k for what you get. They are flat towable at a max speed of 55mph. Their top speed is 51mph but they are geared very low. Final drive is 5.38:1 and has a two speed transfer case.
