Yeah. That works the best.. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Till the time i put it on the grab bar and didnt think about grabbing the clutch. Went for about 20ft like that before it stalled.. . [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

I don't do any wheelies myself. I have a hard enough time holding on when it's on four wheels[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Where you live they are not as stricted as here in town. Living 5 mile on either side of 99 makes passing smog harder[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
No, his name is Jauquine. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] We dont have to pass the Dyno test here yet. The K&N was bought during the 18 mos that it was CARB approved and no one has ever said anything about the glass pack. The Jacobs Ignition is also CARB approved. And I did have to have my throttle body cleaned to get it to pass this year.

Good Morning! Well, the weekend was a blast! We rode 65-70 miles on Saturday. Oh, and the best part was...drum roll please...I didn't see anyone! We were the only people on the trail. However, the road was washed out and I got the man truck stuck, before we unloaded.

Confused, you asked where the trail was: If you go back and look at the link I posted, there is a picture of mountain bike handle bars...see the trail in front of it? Well, that's what a lot of the trail looked like. It was very challenging in certain area's. It's diverse; sand, rocks, river beds, slick rock, ledges, etc. The big thing to protect is microbiotic soil, and preventing increased erosion. We saw 4 or 5 huge arches along the way, with hundreds of buttes and mesa's. Luckily, I can see the tops of these formations from my house. There are also, pictograph's, old cowboy signatures, and old spanish rock cairns and writings (the spanairds came through the area in the mid 1700's).

Road trip to UTAH!

Good mornin Hoss[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Man that ridin looks unreal. I love that type of terrain, esp the rocks[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] If you look closely to the pics, I can make out some of the trail.
So, what's the deal? You ride to one end and then come back the same way. Is there riding area in the middle of certain sections?

"The big thing to protect is microbiotic soil, and preventing increased erosion. We saw 4 or 5 huge arches along the way, with hundreds of buttes and mesa's."

Your impressing us with those fancy, six dollar terms again like "microbiotic". Maybe DQ and school boy will start typin like that soon with all their extended education that they are spending quad money on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Good to see that you saw hundreds of buttes also[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

CARB (and by extension the smog techs) don't care about anything past the Cats. Nothing past that point will change the emissions anyways. Hell, you could hack off your exhaust after the Cat and it could still hypothetically pass smog. Only the "Boys in Blue" (or beige, etc.) care.

It was a loop. There are several different "legal" ways through the San Rafael Swell. There are also several "illegal" ways through the swell, too. Of course, "I" would never take "those" trails. Unfortunately, I'm sure there are a few that do.

Oh, and I prefer the small buttes the best.

LMAO... I like to use words like "Stoopid" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] But I do hope my education pays off.
On another note, I did just spend $120 on new bling for the bike.

So Hoss, you take any pics on your trail ride?
