Started the DR350 and it wouldn't idle, and was running bad and hot. The carb is back together after an 11th hour frantic-cleaning-of-the-jets. Runs good now. Need a back-up dirt bike.

Awesome job getting Dave bandaged up and to the hospital! You guys rock!

I must say I am super jealous of all of you this week! Have fun, ride safe!

Geez, I saw Dave a week ago all chipper, glad he's taking it in stride. Nothing like a good dose of pain to put things in perspective.

Wish I was there!

That sounds like a terrible bike. I'll give you 10 dollars and take it away so that you don't have to worry about it any more.

Consider this fair warning.

Looks like I'll be arriving at camp tomorrow afternoon.

Question

I was thinking of riding out Saturday and camping over night and riding back Sunday. Is it possible? Kinda like a day pass?
