You didn't say where you are now. Travel to interesting places means going to different places from where you live. I live in New England. I love to travel to the west where it open, there are tall mountains, and deserts. If you live in that area you might want to travel to an area with trees, streams, where you can't see distance unless you look for a place that is high and open. I have made several 4 to 6 week trips "out west" to camp and mountain bike. Having something to do like mountain bike is good as it is something to do when you get there and it keeps you in shape and is good after driving all day to get on the bike for a bit. I always traveled in the summer and sometimes it was hot. Almost always in a van. Never got a motel. Stayed in campgrounds sometimes. National Forest campgrounds out west, state campgrounds on the way out and back, seldom commercial ones. Once out west away from people you can often find a spot to camp where you happen to be if yo plan right, take side roads off the side roads etc. I always tried to be out of sight of the road, never had a problem. A van seems they way to go, maybe one done over into a camper. A larger vehicle can have problems in side roads off of side roads, the ultimate would be 4 wheel drive, maybe a box or cube van done over to live in. As I only had 2wd I always had set of chains. Only used them once on a hard packed dirt road in Utah or Colorado when it started to rain and the road turned to grease. Have had a lot of fun traveling and biking. There are biking trails all over the place, local bike shops can clue you in with advise, maps, guide books. Thinking of maybe next summer for something like this but don't have a van so I am thinking of a box on the back of my flat bed pick-up truck, 6"x 8', by maybe 5' high. Not as good as a van might work.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
