5 tips for Tire Safety this Festival Season

Bertha blew a tire!

We have a lot riding on our tires. Indeed, even those of us in TTs and 5th wheels, have a lot invested in our home away from homes as they roll down the road to our next festival.   Nothing can make you miss the first evening of music quicker than a flat tire, or worse, a blow out, as we leave work and hustle to the festival grounds.

Making a quick departure, and pushing the speed limits (and then some), can leave us prone to tire issues.

Trust us, we know – first hand. Bertha’s tire blew out on our way to Hulaween last October, and recently, a tire took two screws and went flat on our tow vehicle (TV) heading to Spring Reunion.

RoadtripMojo On First Glance: Garmin RV 770 LMT-S GPS

The Garmin RV 770 LMT-S serves up key points of interest

I have Waze, Google Maps, and Apple Maps on my iPhone, and my F150 has in-dash nav. So why would I want or need a dedicated GPS unit? That’s the question my daughter wondered as I plugged in and powered up the Garmin RV 770 LMT-S for a recent quick getaway. I almost asked myself the same question. But I knew the functional benefits of a dedicated GPS, and was stoked to demo any unit that had “RV” in the name was marketed to the “RV enthusiast” we fancy ourselves.

With so many other devices at our disposal, it’s valid question. But this is more than a GPS. Join us on this #RoadtripMojo First Glance of the Garmin RV 770 LMT-S.

2 Must-Have Music Festival Campsite Upgrades

NiteIze Reflective / Glow in the dark rope

Making your music festival campsite rock takes a bit of thought and ingenuity. With some creativity, and an adventurous spirit, you can create the environment to capture just the right fest vibe. Our setup, while basically the same at most fests (save for Hulaween!, which we go all out with inflatables, tapestries, and lights), is a continually evolving beast that grows with us as we fest.

As sites are often vastly different, we learn to adapt to different site layouts and features. We typically spend a few hours setting up for a fest; so much can be said for an early arrival. Forest camping is by far our fav; being stacked like a sardine in a parking lot our least. No matter where you end up laying your head at a fest, you can do much to create the right atmosphere to keep your #RoadtripMojo going!
