Well, we didnt get lost but......
We had some problems with traction. Yeah. Always make sure you know the pressure youre airing your tires down to.....
Or they come off teh wheel.
Poor warrior. Both rears blew teh bead. We got one back on but the other was a no go. I ended up pulling him 12 miles back to the staging area..
So we didnt get hardly ANY riding in.
Just a bad day.

I can pretty much say....THAT SUCKED! Need to pull the tires completely off the rim, clean it up, and remount it. For $10....the tires shop can do that. Plus I don't have the irons to get it off the rim in the first place. And there was a LOT of water in that tire.
And there's something wrong with that POS trailer. LOL. It's got a pulsating vibration, like it pulsates for less than a second, then maybe a 1 second gap, then pulsates again. Bearings? This trailer is like the ultimate POS. It belongs to a buddy and he lets me use it. Usually I fix something on it EVERY time I borrow it. This time...just broke the old turn signals. Wait...power did that...twice. And one of the tail lights was out...he didn't even bother to put a new lamp in it.

Well, I did get some work done in the garage[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Unfortunately, I had to work on our lawn mower[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] so, the lawn can look decent again[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Anyways, I fabricated a winch bracket for the Z400. I think, when I'm done, it will work and look great[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I do need to get a hawse roller for it, so, I can finish the fabrication and mount the winch. I posted pictures, just waiting for the program to cycle through to approve them[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
