| | why am I the only one posting in the trails section? just wondering if people are not looking there and just scrolling down to here.
trying to get some of you to come on down for the challenge.
we try to do a trail at least every two weeks or better every week end.
that is why I have to do so many mods and repairs, we use them. post up your trail rides..
I love digital camera's. for 4 cents of battery charging I can take 1000 bad pictures and 20 to 30 good one's. |

| | Oh get off our backs, we're all staying home so we can check in on what you're doing!!!  I have a few pics at home, but I'm usually alone or with only my wife when I drove over something cool.... and it's hard to tell her to get out and take pictures when she's putting fingernail marks in my door handle....

| | yeh, I understand that.......
if I ever see GOOD and simple, digital camera's on sale for like 30 bucks each I may buy 2 or 3 and hand out to others at the beginning of the run.
If you have the only camera you don't get many pictures of yourself.
I have started bringing the lap top and a card reader to collect pictures at the end of the run. |

| | Well, I don't know 'bout otehr folks... but I've been workin' my arse off, and no weekend time for wheelin' lately. Every two weeks? My goal was once a month thsi summer, but it's looking like it won't happen in june, I'll be out of town 2 of the 4 weekends... no doubt wife will want me home the remaining to help with the 2.5 y/o son. She has no interest in it herself.
On that note though, we DID just start debating if maybe I could just take him with me for a short day-out jaunt. Just to the UNF, the trails are pretty mild and I'd take it very easy. He DOEs already think that my truck is the coolest thing is the world (he loves sitting and playing in it).

MY WIFE..... I SURE LOVE HER.....................  | Yes, you ARE a lucky dog!!!! There just ain't that many women out there that will really "wheel" with her man..... well at least from what I've seen.
My wife will go with me, but she walks most of the hard stuff. Her idea of "off-roading" is sitting on the Baja deck in her sand chair sipp'n on an ice cold margarita with Jimmy Buffet in the CD player.
