Technical Tips Introduction
by Bob Lowe
The following Technical Tips were originally published in the newsletter of the 1st Canadian Bounder Chapter of Bounders of America. Most were subsequently published in the Bounder Beacon, a bi-monthly newsletter of Bounders of America. Bob Lowe edited the Bounder Beacon for three years and continues to submit articles regularly. The Bounder Beacon is sent to about 3,000 Bounder motorhome owners in North America. His columns are entitled Technical Tips, Coaches Comments (suggested improvements and alterations to Bounder motorhomes) and Bounding Around (a travelogue).
