[. That was a long drive home, well it took a while it seems. Though I was passed out for about the last hour, or so. The beautiful hum of the 7.3 PSD lulled me to sleep. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] And the heated seat was nice on the back after a day of riding.

Good morning FBK. I went riding yesterday straight from my house (with a detour to the gas station). It’s kind of nice to leave the driveway on the 700. I have trails just a few blocks from the house. We rode for 4 hours and could have ridden for days and days. There are tons of trails and dirt roads (left from gas companies, power line roads, old coal mining companies, etc).
However, some of the trails we went on yesterday ended up being washed out (from all of the runoff that we have had). Some areas of the trail were pretty hairy. I had butt pucker-factor 9 on one of the hills. It’s kind of scary when you’re heading down a hill and your back end wants to pass you up.

Morning guys. Hoss...front brakes. That @ss end won't slide around on you. Really. I'm serious. I know when I'm riding Miami up by LJ's house, it's front brake time, unless I want to slide. Hard pack with a light coat of sand....
Hey LJ...get the paddles off yet?

The sportsman's only have all wheel braking (just like a truck), or back brake only (foot pedal). It's touch and go with the engine braking system, and feathering with the hand brake. I was on the backbone of hill (cliff on one side, and gully on the other). It's funny how going up is always easier than coming down (just like hiking and climbing).

that sounds serious Hoss. i prolly woulda jammed out or started crying. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] did you take your wife and kids down the same place, on those significantly heavy and oversized machines that could squish them like a bug?
i sure envy being able to ride straight out of the driveway.
we spent fri & sat golfing with my dad in atrociously rainy weather. then when we drove home sunday, in perfecetly sunny weather.

The fam stayed on top of the ridge, while I went down to investigate. I started to walk down and then said screw this, I'm riding down. They had to wait 30 minutes or so in the hot sun (cuz that's the kind of guy I am).
Wifey didn't want to walk or drive down so we ended up turning around (and of course, I'm too lazy to hike up the hill for each ATV).
Rain? What's that? I live in the 2nd driest state in the union. Actually, we have had quite a bit of moisture, lately. I'm ready for summer.
Oh, I'm going camping on Wedneday - Monday.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
