I know, some of you are going to say "You need help BECAUSE you're moving to Cali!"...
Some of you may even be tempted by your own local weather to volunteer sight unseen for anything that'll get you to California!
But this one is simple...
On the nights of March 10 and 11, I need somewhere secure to park my trailer.
See, there are some things the movers won't take, or that I won't let them take. Motorcycles being on that list. Hence the trailer. I need to swing by St. Helena CA for an event on my way South. And I confirmed with my hotel they have only street parking available. This being a somewhat insecure location to park my trailer for two nights, I'm trying to find other solutions.
Some background:
I'll be driving from Seattle on the 10th, arriving later that evening. Looking to be about 13 - 14 hours on the road, maybe a smidge less depending on traffic, et al.
Trailer will obviously be pad locked, with wheel nut locks in place and two hitch locks installed. I have considered an actual wheel lock, those big yellow ones, but most look to be fairly flimsy - so a visual deterrent, but wouldn't stop a crow bar, essentially. Not hoping for a discussion on security and locks, mind you, but if there are obvious tips that make a difference, I'm all ears.
Bottom line is I'm hoping to connect with someone from the community in the area who might be willing to babysit my trailer for two nights in exchange for, I dunno, say a nice bottle of scotch?
