      Rob a bank.

      I may just come up for a day and a night and ride something easy. Any idea on what the 'fun' day/night combo would be?

        Poison Spider Trail is a full day and night if you are slow getting to the trailhead then lose the trail markers after dark down around Gold Bar Rim...

        I have no list of things to do because when I make a list it just gets longer.

          I used to think like that until I did a basic ATTAINABLE goals list before a wheeling trip and it REALLY helped to motivate me because I was able to focus my efforts on those tasks. I try to leave the "wants" off the lists and focus on the "needs" stuff.

              I guess I can see your point though since many of your "to do" items would involve quadratrac's! Looking at a list like that would make me depressed... VERY depressed... maybe a list isn't for everyone!

                    That explains Ouray 2006. Shocks are not on a needs list. Never much considered them a want though .

                    At least your J made it. .

                    Wish I could make this run. Maybe next year

                    1985 J10 nothing special just a nice clean stock truck.
                    1977 Honcho "Blue" 401/400/quad. Under going major upgrades.."This is Not Your Fathers Honcho", it may not even be a Honcho anymore when done.

                            confession: The NOS QT goes in Phoebe first, then some troubleshooting on ignition gremlins. Once Phoebe rolls on her own, then start on Luna. I picked up axel joints for her yesterday.
