I DIDN'T Ride My Bike Today, Cuzz....

Fantastic, what a relief! Good outcome... If it makes you feel better, my mom’s bill to save her dog was twice yours. A bargain at any price for a family member, though.

 

Great to hear the Rusty is on the mend.

I'm still sad about that bacon-wrapped filet!

 

Me and the hubs rode dirt bikes instead, it’s been almost 18yrs since I’ve ridden a moto, I’d forgotten how much fun it is!

 

Those riding boots!

 

Doh! I know, I have to buy all new gear again

 

First step to an ebike......watch out for that slope....I hear it's pretty slippery.

 

Wash your mouth out J! You know better than that Mr

 

I disagree J. A motorcycle is a motorcycle. An E-mt. bike is a lost soul with no identity. A moto wanna be, but a mt bike wanna not be. I don't think one is a gateway drug for the other.

 

Haha my first thought...

 

Too cool. I actually think the bike suits you well, Chucks and all.

 

At least get some high top Chuck's eh!

 

Thanks Matt, she’s a good solid bike! Looking forward to some adventures once I have my moto skills, also the hubs and I needed something together
And aren’t chucks good for everything?!
@Derkderkall eh! High tops will do

 

Gotta have some shared activities! And some separate ones. And yeah, your Chucks are my Vans slip-ons.

 

Driving lessons in the foothills with los ninos. Hmmmm, hmmmm burnt clutch smells great!!! Hike afterwards was nice!

 

Sweet ride!

 

What’s going on in that first photo? : ) Y’all are a nutty bunch. I can’t think of anyone who spends as much quality time with his teenagers. Bravo.

 

Hopefully it will survive this stage!!!

She's getting ready to squish the tiny car with giant hands, isn't it obvious???

 

It makes my heart happy that your teens are learning to drive with a clutch! I'm not even sure I remember how, after owning nothing but manual transmissions in my first 6 cars.

 

I didn't ride my bike today, but I did go on a small scouting mission up Highway 2... Thar's gold in them thar hills!

If only I had a mountain bike... Soon enough...

 

I didn't ride my bike today. Went to Mountain Home Village to see if the Loch Leven gate was open. It's not.

 

Thee pedals are a requirement! I think they've kinda' got the shifting thing down.

 

Does anyone remember double clutching? Or did I just learn on trucks that were ancient... Or the even more advanced... shifting without the clutch? Another ancient skill probably...

My last manual was a 90 Blazer... The kids called it "The Big Red Truck". My oldest was quite adept at digging into the Florida mud to lock the hubs.

 

The weather has turned perfect as planned. Work has reappeared not really as planned.

A day or two of making corporate America look good and then back to that effing thorn in my side of a ride I have on deck. This weekend!!!!!!

 

We are fully synchronized here!

 

Cuzz I went for a walk turned creek hopping adventure instead. The wife and dogs do the same walk all the time all week long to see their horsey friends so today I talked em in to something different. We went up Charlie canyon to the end and little did I know there was running water and lots of it. Made for a fun time as we had to cross the creek 9 times. One of us made it back to the Jeep dry and the other 3 didn't... I now remember why I don't usually ride this side. We got passed by roughly 25 motos, more E-Bikes than I could possibly count(50+ at least) and a total of 4 nice people on regular mountain bikes...

 

Need some bikes built, right now we have 3 people building and cannot keep up with the demand....

 

Higher sales than typical mid-April, or staffing problems?

 

Way higher than typical sales, actually our numbers are higher than Christmas numbers. The owner cannot find enough people to help keep up with putting bikes on the floor. Most of the bikes never make it out on the floor and have been sold straight out of the box.

 

That's great! The 'Rona Bike Boom!!!!

 

I’m playing Moving-In Bingo!
