Loved Ditchdigger's pics in the Snow. I use to live in the Canadian arctic (Hall Beach and Iqaluit) and it made me wish I'd had a my At up there, though my little TRX250 was a blast.
In contract to the snow of the north, the Cherry blossoms are out her ein Korea.

Thanks for your kind words

I thought you might appreciate a pic from the ride I took yesterday afternoon. A little rainy, but lots of fun exploring. Some great backroads here.

Funny. You don't look Korean.

You guys remember Macosie.....

He's that petite lil thang that make the AT look almost like a normal dirt bike in comparison.

Also...this just in....

Another AT for sale in the SF bay area...near me and once again I can't afford it (well I could if I didin't want to ride anywhere this year)

I think it's the same guy, no relation to me (or I'd bloody well have the bike)

here's the link,

dino2000 · 04-12-2006, 08:24 AM

yes, after much painful deliberation I have decided to keep my trusty draft horse in lieu of the ever elusive AT. I have done some extensive soul searching and realized that I just don't have the time this year to buy and sort out a new moto. I am trying to get ready for a future (07') attempt @ the Baja 500 and my garage is full of XR650R's right now. I have learned to live w/ the GS short comings off-road and will continue to soldier thru till the right time and AT come along. Thanks for all the help and I shall return........................................

Jim Rowley · 04-12-2006, 08:49 AM

Okay, would owning three AT's be distastefull?

Jim.

dino2000 · 04-12-2006, 08:56 AM

it's still there as of last night. I can pick it up and ride it out to ya for a plane ticket home

Jim Rowley · 04-12-2006, 09:15 AM

I know how much fun that would be because I've done it myself. There were some raised eyebrows when I would go through security at the airport with my riding boots and gear. I couldn't unload that hassle on anyone.
