Chappel Today - Friday 12

[Web Mobile]

Went up to Chapple today. Trail was hard moguls all the way up & down. Too much fog up top to ride to hard in unfamilar country, played around about a hour then headed back down to staging area.
Now the bad news, 3 rigs in the staging area, 3 broken windows. For us they opened the RH RR truck window, took a wallet & cell phone from a hidden pouch & cleaned out the front seat console, but left the GPS & Sat radio. Then they popped the latchs on the trailer rear gate, ruffed up the gear & shelves, then took nothing. Out of the wallet they used the credit card at a Petrocan pump by 3:30.
Heard 3 rigs got hit around Blue River, the local boys in blue said 9 this year. 3 last weekend & 6 so far this weekend.
So DO NOT leave any thing in the trucks at a unmanned parking lot. The boys in blue said OK with them if all your ID is left at your hotel & to leave glove box, ash tray etc open so they can see nothing of value. Allso to cover VIN so they cannot phone in # to dealer & get key cut.

Chow for now 7 have fun.

Man, all these break-ins and thefts are getting just too common. I wish somebody would just sit in a trailer and wait for these dirtbags with a Louisville Slugger.

Has anyone thought more into the idea of paying a couple extra bucks per head on top the of the trail pass for the guy to hang around and keep an eye on the parking lot till later in the day.
