Christmas Eve

Howdy and good Christmas Eve to everyone. It has been a wild week and figured I had better get a post up tonight. Updating the trip journal will happen soon, I promise. We will run head first into the 70 hour clock Christmas Day, so we will run it out...

Rough day

Howdy. We are spending the night overlooking the Dillon Reservoir in Frisco, Colorado. It was just one of those days… let me give ya a glimpse into what happened today while the cameras were off. We woke up at 3am in Grand Junction and ran through the early morning hours...

Grand Junction

Good morning America from Grand Junction, Colorado. We are still waiting for our next trip. Apparently freight out of here is pretty slow because this truckstop has quite a few trucks hanging around still. In the meantime, I uploaded three videos recorded yesterday morning in areas of Utah where we...

Sunday Brakes a smokin'

A good Sunday morning to ya Road Crew. This morning we departed Baker, California and as we headed up the mountain we noticed the trailer brakes started to smoke. We pulled over and cycled the brakes and then rolled slowly and pulling over alot to double check that the problem...

Drizzle in California?

Good afternoon Road Crew! We should have been rolling by now but the driver we are doing a repower for is running behind. As soon as he gets here we will swap trailers and start our trip back to Colorado. Nice cool, damp, drippy day here in California. Nice to...

Traffic!

Very long day today as we ran the full 11 hours of our drive clock. Tonight we are very thankful that we get to park on the property of our first delivery. Thursday morning we will make our first delivery at 6am, then scoot on over to the second delivery...

International Orders

Because of the much higher shipping costs for the International orders, we have been fulfilling the orders and shipping them, but do ask that you visit the bigrigtravels.com/donate page to...

Rush then stop update

Updated… I know that sometimes we get the short end of the stick with being turned away from delivery for being an hour late, or shippers that take 36+ hours to load us. But, let’s put things into perspective shall we? Right now there are thousands of Celadon truckers that...

More local news

Well, yesterday we were late due to circumstances beyond our control but we showed up as fast as we legally could. Yesterday we were told to come back at 0930am today to unload. So, we showed back up at 0915 but then get told that all the 0930 slots were...

Rescheduled...

So we rushed to make up time to get to delivery at the most earliest legal time allowed…and they would not allow us in the gate today because we were 1hr 15min late! They have rescheduled us for 930am Saturday, but then this probably means we will lose our next...

Welcome to December!
