I have had to stay at 10x and the ridiculous Bedrock campground (don’t know if it’s even there anymore) in the past during the crowded summer season. Not a fan of Mather but I do like Desert View. The only thing I like about Mather is it’s so convenient. Look forward to seeing more from the S Rim. I’ve taken a dozen people across to the north rim and back by foot including my wife. But I haven’t been past the first tunnel on Bright Angle for quite some time. Hopefully next year that will all change.

If I keep my speeds under 18 mph, the generator keeps the battery topped off. With this setup I can ride almost 200 miles before I have to refuel the generator.

    I am glad your new bike works out for you for short trips. The portable Bluetti seems like a good addition for recharging your bike and portable hand held devices such as the phone. I don’t know if you have heard that the new electric bikes in some of the states are being regulated as a motorcycle requiring the user to have a motorcycle license. I guess it has to do with the speed that the bike can attain. I noticed you rode yours on the sidewalk as opposed to the street except for the unpaved road where you were staying. You weren't going that fast so there was no problem noticed. Be careful and god bless.
