And, now back to our regular programming...


Just followed (shoot can't remember his name now) into the Calle Real Market Place in Goleta. He had a less than one year old (very clean exterior and interior), ATC Ocelot shell with a custom driver's side seat/fold into a bed, mounted on a Tacoma.

I told him about WTW, he told his wife in the passenger seat about WTW, and maybe they will make it over here and introduce himself... so I can remember his name for the next time we meet.

Also, saw the "Aliner" folding truck camper guy again when I was leaving.

He was going a different direction from where I needed to go, so I resisted chasing after him.

Ooh a paranoia thread. I'm in. I keep the gps in my phone disabled (but is it? how would I really know?). I use do not track software. I even peruse http://zapatopi.net/afdb/ for updates. Sadly, I do realize I'm just not important enough for anyone to really bother tracking me

Did my annual birthday ride yesterday, up and over Tioga Pass and back Sonora Pass on my BMW K1600GT. Saw four 4W Campers on the ride most I have ever seen. Saw two going over Tioga Pass in Yosemite and two more heading south on 395 headed south between Lee Vining and Bridgeport. Got a pictures of one of the campers in Yosemite as I rode by. I did see a camper I had never see except in pictures just before I got home, Earth Roamer headed north on I-5 in Stockton damn that thing is BIG.

Anyone see an old fart on a bike with a yellow jacket wave at them?

Last night about 7:15pm, heading north on NE 3rd Street in Bend, Oregon:
an ALASKAN camper, cabover style (sorry, I'm not familiar with the names of Alaskan models) on a white F350 crew cab, Oregon plates.

I think Alaskan rigs are an even rarer sight than FWC/ATCs...in Bend, Oregon, anyway.

Smoke, If I'd known you were passing through Bend I'd have kept an eye out for you -- to make your rig the subject of a sightings post!
....just as I hope that my rig can someday be the subject of a WTW Sightings Thread post.

Met a 4WC (looked like a Grandby on a GM) on Hwy 108 just outside Oakdale around 10:00 AM, Tuesday on my way up to the Highland Lakes region. On the way home on Friday I met a Tundra with a Hawk near Ebbetts Pass. Had a great week in the Sierras.

Mark-I had not planned to be near Bend, started for the coast from Kenniwick, Wa -was so damn much Smoke turned off at the Dalles, next thing I knew I was on 31 heading for Lakeview-like I said, found a nice FSCG to rest in for three days. Sure did allot of work on 97 and it sure was allot faster than the last time i was on it thru the Bend area. I don't know if it's just because I own one, but I see FWC (or the other fake ones) EVERWHERE it seems now-even ran into one in a MacD's parking lot in Susanville. Mine is the easy sighting because of that very handsome black/white border collie sitting in the front seat or with his head always sticking out the window!

From your northern breatheren. Wednesday Sept 22, around 7pm heading west bound on HWY 1 in the centre of Calgary was a beauty of a newer 4door Tacoma and an Eagle. I always feel goofy because I wave at every FWC I spot and then I realize that I usually don't have my camper on and I'm just some random guy waving at campers.

Up here the spottings are few and far between. I know there are a couple in town but very few.

Hey Smoke,

We just got a border mix, of the black & white persuasion. We'll have to get the doggies together sometime!
