Competition Photos
We have returned from the 2011 HPVC East in Indianapolis, Indiana! Below are photos of the trip.
Preparing the trailer for the journey to Indiana.
After a late night of finishing the vehicle, everyone was exhausted.
We quickly learned that open trailers are not the best for cross-country travel. We needed a new tarp after only 400 miles!

The open trailer did not help keep our bike together. We lost several components, which resulted in more work to keep the vehicle competition-ready.
