Practice my young apprentice. The force is strong with u. Lol be safe ride your ride

Enjoyed a Saturday with 2 good new guys and Inept. Hadn't been in Blackwater since April 2011. Felt good to get my sand legs back somewhat

Took the fellas to some of the required BW stops




I thought this was a good shot-- my beloved US90 looking west, the sun heading ever down in the trees, and Inpet pointing out Jason's loud-ass FMF pipe:




A good day

Awful lot of pointing going on!

Had a good Saturday with Ineptizoid, Mugwest and Jaxxzenn. Despite being the one with a DSLR, I basically took no pictures First we were concerned at how a DR could be as clean as Jaxxzenn's:

Its the one on the right if you couldn't tell We decided this needed to change (Seriously, how does a DR stay that clean??)

How does a DR do with DeathWings, stock gearing and a new (dirt) rider? It kicks ass all day. Meanwhile, this guy:

with knobbies and 14/43 gearing (piloted by yours truly) took 2 sand naps at the beginning of the route.

With a gaping hole in my ego, the 4 of us took some great routes and had a good day. A certain dude kept pulling wheelies whenever wed come out on asphalt

It was a pleasure guys- definitely down to ride with you guys again. Hopefully ill still have my hearing considering my exhaust.

[Buzztail]

Yeah, Mug and those damned wheelies.... One day Swampy will scold him that way he scolded Inept and that wheelie BS will stop

Glad to see the big DR back in action Mug- feels good don't it.

Pretty soon, if not already, those CO boyz will be looking at nothing but snow and we'll still be riding!
