Re: 4th Bird Farm ride Sept. 27

Larry's trails are in the best shape ever and more of them! I know those trails don't magically groom themselves--that's a LOT of work, Larry! THANK YOU!

Everybody had a GREAT time!

Throw on a D606 front and back. Hard to find a better DOT legal tire that offers great offroad ability with great wear on pavement.

You can call it abuse, but I was taming that beast in order to allow folks like Carl to straddle such a powerful machine.

WOOHOO! There is something magical about a street-legal dirt bike. It's like a unicorn.

How was Chadwick?! Weather was perfect I assume! Did you checkout the "new" single-track only area on the North side? How was it?

Thanks, means a lot to me.
I am overdue on title. Will be penalized. I could have hauled but I just waited.
I think the penalty in KS and MO is tiny, as in not enough to care about being late with registration.

That's right, Carl. If you ride with Birdman, you'll be hanging out with potheads like the one in this picture. (The pothead is on the right.)

Re: My Recovery

Nice timing, Bob. David Hemphill, David Hodges, Larry Weber and I thought of you over burgers in Greely, KS just a few days ago. I was wondering how your recovery is going and thought, "Man, I need to call Bob!" Glad to hear you are recovering, and understand you can't give details in a public forum.
