    Home safe had a kick ass time good shooting the shit with old friends and meeting some new...

    KimBoy I think that was you with the HiVis helmet? I want a chance to redeem myself hah... I totally should have listened to you but still dont think I woulda made it up that hill.

    950 totally good for blue/green rated trails - just about 50% speed you can hit em on the 530 :D

    Another good ride indeed. Sorry had to cut it short. Hill climb was a challenge. Monti. I give you props for even attempting that climb on your heavy beast with those tires. Impressive. And yes I have the hi vis bucket. Good to see everyone made it back alive. Looks like ill be back up that way on tues if anyone wants to join in. I think 930am at the northfork cheveron again. :rofl

    Had lots of fun yesterday.....I really cannot wait until we have a good rain...the dust is still pretty bad.

    I ended up smashing my lower chain guide to pieces.:bash I remember a loud smashing sound as I went over some rocks, and figured that it was just something bouncing off the skid plate.:1drink..nope. Then later I realized that I didnt have starter button anymore:super, but luckily it still worked, although it's kinda anti-theft style now, reminds me of the old muscle cars with a secret starter switch up under the steering column. I probably won't even fix it, I like it:D


    1 vid from yesterday...will post more later in the week after editing....

    for some reason youtube doesn't create a 480p version when i upload anymore (360 Auto)

    Make sure to change it to HD....it's mo better

    Anyone want to meet up at BC's pizza & beer (Shaw & Sunnyside) for food/drinks tomorrow after work, around 6pm?

    They have at least 10-15 beers on tap & a huge selection of bottles. Pizza, sandwiches, etc. are top notch too IMO.....

    Do you have any videos of Monti riding/crashing the 950? That's got to be good to watch! :D
