    Nice vids and nice riding. I love that area. The Devil's Racetrack is one of my favorites. I avoid 5MOH, as I'd like to receive my first social security check next year.:lol3

    Chris, I love that WW vid with the rearward shot. Awesome!

    Hey!...I'm a Romney supporter. We're doing away with all government assistance.:lol3

    Jeff, in singletrackslayer's pic of you, I notice the fake camera angle tilt with the trees all leaning sideways. What was the true angle there?...about 3 degrees?

    Try mounting on your swingarm(righthand side, no kickstand). forward or backwards.

    mount it forward and go out and do some wheelies and you'll know what i mean.

    Be honest with yourself. You're a 47%er.


    While photoshop can do wonders, all of those pictures were shot with a green screen. It was just easier that way.

    Ha! My Nemesis! That's the ledge that nailed me 3 years ago. I hit it with the perfect combination to do an uphill stoppie.

    The GP doesn't do this trail justice.

    Jeff- I was riding with Tom (although not at the time) and had kicked my bike about 200 times when you showed up, STSlayer told me you guys waited for me to get it started, thanks for that! Sorry I wasn't more engaging in conversation. I'm sure we'll cross paths again.

    Ridefreak- I didn't know that you were in the group with Rusty 'til Tom told me later, I wanted to meet you and shake your hand.

    Gordy- I might be rollin' through ABQ on my way to Baja in mid December, I'll check and see if any of you NM boys might wanna ride.
