The Iron Heart Forum Triangle of Terror Type III Trucker Tour 2018 - Updates thread

didn't shrink.

Eau De Foundry is a scent I can never wait to get away from. It's truly hard to describe, but so similar no matter the process  (EAF's, BOP shops, even Coke plants have that similar weird scent).

Fantastic pictures steelworker, nicely done and a ballsy move for the forum [emoji106]

Jacket is looking great. Good time for some solid documentation.

[Fadez]

Great photos!! This thing can take some abuse

[JDelage]

I'm amazed the jacket is still basically black. The fading is well started, but the color is barely peaking through here and there.

I wonder what was inside that left chest pocket…

[Matty123]

Someone left a lighter in the left chest pocket. I took it out though because it’s dangerous to
Ship a butane lighter. Didn’t want to ship a hazmat. Just not safe for the postal
Workers.

[Fadez]

Haha. So that’s where my orange lighter went…

[JDelage]

Elementary my dear!

One side of the triangle is nearly drawn.
After a short stop in Gosport to avoid German customs problems, the Tour jacket probably arrives tomorrow.
Tempted!

Thanks @Appfaff , @JDelage , @Fadez and @steelworker for this great start of the Tour!

[Appfaff]

Can’t wait to see the updates @Aetas !!

The Tour jacket arrived safely and in wonderful condition along with my two pants, which had a short visit in Gosport for hemming.

@steelworker enclosed some Tourmusic CD's for all of us. Thanks a lot.
As I heard The Dickies and Hüsker Dü in my youth, I added this first into "Autofahrmusik" rotation.

Didn't know anything about Kinky Friedman. Found a great german article about him in the Süddeutsche Zeitung here.

The Tour jacket is located in the Ruhrarea for the next days.
For those of you, who are interested in public transportation, it looks like this .

Population density is high in the Ruhrgebiet, with some green axis! Hope to show some of them, wearing the jacket.

It was raining cats and dogs this evening. Feeding the fishes was the only outside action to capture…..

Think I will say it twice: This jacket is amazing! I am a happy man.

Nice @Aetas . Great idea with a bit of local info. Looking forward to the next month on this thread.
