Morning update

EU :

Test package made it to the delivery post office. Remaining packages should be out of the US by tomorrow. We are really hoping for this because of the shipping rush that will come next week from black friday.

US :

21 individual chargers are fully prepped for mounting into the pans. I will probably work tomorrow, Thanksgiving, until meal time. I did a full day yesterday but had to have Teruko come bring me home in crippling pain. It was probably the worst since I was able to take off the back braces. I think the Baja made me feel like I was back to normal, but in reality, the team down there was just really good at helping me out. Then when I got back here and was rested up I thought I could just do everything. Sadly... I am still far from fully recovered reguardless how strong I attempt to be. Morgan is the resident Family Chef here at the Vetter ranch as well, so tomorrow he will be on Turkey duty. The Vetter tradition is to eat approximately the weight of your own head on this holiday. This means that after feasting has subsided, sleeping will insue.

NZ :

Morgan has packed a box containing the "Back Breaker Pan" and a new pan for Jef Iken. The back breaker pan is the pan I was wearing when I broke my spine this latest time. It is a rather historic item.


@Brian yes it is most interesting! Especially out in Valle de Guadalupe wine country.

@Sam we did a half baja trip last year, this year we did the baja 1000 and next year provided I am not too broken still, the owner of the baja 1000 offered to make a race class for me. That would be the first ever electric motorcycle to finish the Baja then too! I think maybe the first to even compete. That would be a pretty sick thing to do, back to back historical firsts. Also get this, he (owner of baja 1000 / score organization) said he would even ride it for the first pit 30-50 miles from the start! While I would really like to do an Ironman run (solo rider for the whole race), I think I will need other riders too.

Charging is doable, but really touring the baja beyond the half way point is only for the most experienced of Electric Cowboys. Eric Bar and I made a plan and charging route two years ago. Last year we followed it for the top half of the route, but I quickly realised that the ride was a bit too much for some of the group so we opted to explore the middle of Baja from a home base in Rosarito. We stayed at the hotel where they filmed The Walking Dead Mexico season. Was pretty cool!

EU Update :

Delivery attempt for the package was made. Alec is going to see if the package has arrived tomorrow.

US Update :

Tomorrow will be mounting more chargers and prepping shipment for Chuck Burgess and an upgrade for Aaron Pinero. Will not ship until monday likely. I expect I will need to make a few connectors/splitters still. Could be wrong.

Bahamas update :

Vargo6's charger recieved and modified. Will be mounted, checked and hopefully packed tomorrow, but that may be a bit too much to squeeze in.

NZ update :

I will be driving the Pan to Jef's friend tonight as requested. It will be a rough night for me. With the 5-6 hour round trip including charging it looks like today will shape up to be a 12 hour or more day.

EU Update :

Boxes are on their way, I will get with Morgan and Alec to see where things are if they have a moment today. I know Morgan is furiously making enough food to feed an army today though.

NZ Update :

Jef's units were dropped off at the hotel for his friend to pick up and take to NZ last night. Got home at 4:30 am! It was a LOOOOONG NIGHT! Thank goodness I was able to take the leaf and didnt have to pay gas. It had about 100 mile range in the cold the way I was driving it. Usuially it gets around 150 miles.

Bahamas :
Ideally will be atleast mounted today if not also packed.

US Update :

Will let you guys know how many get mounted today.

Hey guys,

I appologise, with everyone else taking the Holiday off it is too painful for me to accomplish much :( I just can't move the heavy stuff.

If I continue on like this today it would result in slowing down overall because I would hurt myself too bad.

EU update :

Some packages have cleared customs with duty and VAT payed, but have not yet been delivered. Its a bit of a hassle because they appear to be just sitting at the shippers for the past 4 days.

US Update :

Pans being filled with chargers Chuck and 2 others will go out this week.

NZ update :

Jef recieved his pan and parts and is now deciding how he wants to use the "back breaker pan". Sam's parts will be shipped to a US destination this week or next. Tim's units will be shipping out next week or the week after.

General update :

Had to order a few raw materials to finish up the US/NZ pans being built now. Should not effect shipment time much if at all as we can work on other parts while the materials are shipped.

EU update :

We have a lot of packages that just made it through customs in the UK now leaving COVENTRY PARCELFORCE, UNITED KINGDOM

Also, it looks like they are going to attempt delivery on some of the other ones today or tomorrow. Good sign, shame it is so slow, but glad it is happening and the tracking is being updated.

Parcelforce are very bad at updating the tracking I am afraid. Glad to hear that they are cleared and on their way though.

Alec has me booked in for early December for the (slightly belated) 600-mile check and fitting my pan and charger.

EU update :

The UK post seems to be a bit slow... They now have all the packages and it seems that they will be delivering them soon. @DanielCoffey seems to be correct about their tracking updates.

NZ update :

Morgan is building Tim's pan now just waiting on some materials before packing it to mail.

US update :

Chuck's Pan is just waiting on a some materials before it gets packed, same with a couple others which are being built while we wait.

Bahamas update :

@Vargo6's charger is packed and ready to ship.

Bahamas Update :

All units shipped yesterday. Possibly shipping delays by the late George H Bush's death which shut down most of the government today.
