A couple more pix from Andy's first brush with snow. He put screws in the tires after we made this first excursion, and reports handling is much improved!

Hood Rivin' in Good Liver!

Looks like fun!

So I got the sheet metal screws in and Vern drops by to entice me away from hunting for a job

What was I to do? Armed with my bullet cam and Vern with his helmet cam we headed out - and it was

but a heck of a lotta fun!

Nice work, guys!!!

That turned out really nice. I kind of like that one with the yellow hand guards better.

Nice work, Andy. The vid worked better than I expected

I'm so sad

you like my big brother's hack better than mine. Truth is, being a Mennonite pastor I had to have the hack in black - no shiny chrome or flashy colors.

Later Vern and I will work on a DualSport hack for my frame for up in the mountains but this one's great with all the snow - especially for the passenger who is fully enclosed. Vern really does a great job on these things and is highly appreciated - even if he is my big bother!

Andy, you do know it used to be his bike? I traded my Yellow Suzi for it. Rob I was enjoying the ice-cycle hanging below the Death Valley sticker the other night....

I was getting ice-sickles on my last DV trip, looks cool Vernon!!

I was just teasing you, Andy!!! The rig looks awesome!! A hack is the only way to go with the winter weather you guys get up there.

larryboy · 12-23-2008, 09:19 AM

That last video turned out awesome, guys!!!

Thanks Larryboy! Had great time in the snow and hope to get out again today. It's supposed to get up to 19 today so it'll be toasty

. We have about 32" of snow on the ground here in Hood River now - more to come Christmas Eve/Day but then warming up so I gotta get out and play!

Like your job description in your Sorry Profile - "Orthopedic X-ray tech - sidecar instructor" Don't even have to connect the dots now do I!
