Re: Supercross Crash 450 LCQ

That is wild! I'm surprised a little that we haven't seen that before...does not seem too difficult to get into that predicament. I wonder how painful it was...seems like it's possible that it did not actually hurt that much....assuming that pipe did not melt his pants to his skin.

Re: Brrrr... Now what?

...I can't wait until April when we'll be able to be there enjoying the trails and roads! Do you & Allisa have any plans to setup camp in AR this year for longer than a couple weeks? Some people love the desert. My pop is one of them--he finds endless beauty in the relative barrenness. My biggest d...

Re: Brrrr... Now what?

Sunday morning. I've downed 3 cups of coffee while cooking eggs & bacon for my house guests. Now I'm sitting here jealously reading Arkansas ride reports from guys like O'Leary and Bohawk while the snow is coming down heavy. Might be fun to get my Jeep (for sale) out to play in the snow later today....

Re: A nice, big-bike friendly ride

That last bit with the 690 is what I have a little problem with. I have to remember that I only have 8 1/2" of ground clearance and not 12". Nice video. Cheers, That guy can ride that 690! You see him jump the log? In another spot he puts a foot down, wheelies the front wheel up and pivots to posit...

A nice, big-bike friendly ride

Eddie is leading a big-bike friendly ride soon. Here is the video of the pre-ride so you can see what the route is like. It includes frequent stops at Starbucks to refresh.

Re: MISSING: Yellow Freightliner Columbia semi truck

Does the truck have a company name and/or other marking on it ? To my knowledge it does not have any markings on it except the DOT #. Palomino Trucking DOT # 2404057 Note that I changed the title of this post to say MISSING instead of STOLEN. Legally, the rig is not "stolen" because as far as we kn...

Re: Stolen: Yellow Freightliner Columbia semi truck

So when did Troy become a trucker? Technically, never. I purchased the rig in May 2013 and setup a driver as an Owner/Operator. My involvement was not much more than that of a bank that might finance your car. As the operation took in money, I was to get a percentage until I made my money back plus...

MISSING: Yellow Freightliner Columbia semi truck

This is a long-shot, but... If any of you happen to be riding around NW Missouri and see a yellow semi truck sitting in a field or along a road, etc, snap a photo if possible and send my way with the coordinates. A truck driver ran off with the truck June 2013. He lives in Princeton, MO, has an addr...

Re: Rescue Pegs

RE: https://www.bestrestproducts.com/c-176-rescue-pegs.aspx I think your idea of using them locally to facilitate easy 2-up dirt bike play is the only use that makes sense. They market them as "rescue pegs" with the thought that your buddy breaks down or gets hurt bad 50 miles out in the boonies. Th...

Re: DAYTONA SUPERCROSS WATCH PARTY

I'm not familiar with the venue. Not sure if you are kidding or not, Rick. 8) Twin Peaks restaurants are like Hooters but kicked up a notch in most ways as I understand. Get it, "twin peaks", heh, heh, heh. In fact, their company website is blocked by the family-safe web filter I have configured at...
