It was like 6 years ago so I don't know. Guy at the bike shop let me return them and said he would show Maxxis. Never followed up.

I ripped a knob off a DHR less than 100 yds into my first ride on them. Rock gardens happen. Stans was squirting 10 ft in the air. Quite the show, and a nice walk back up to the lift to download...

I thought it was pretty OK. But it seems to really glorify the benefits of these drugs without really discussing the downsides of misusing/abusing them very much. It even seems to kinda shrug off...

Amex for cash back, chase for travel, capital one for low fee but still good rewards.

There was a similar one w/ only 50k on it for sale near me. Guy wanted $20k.

Been loving the Rekons front and rear. Mostly mellow XC type riding so far this summer, but took them on a steeper, rocky, rooty trail yesterday with tons of braking and they were surprisingly...

Had one just like that too. Traded it in at 280k because it was rusted out around the windshield. Great truck. I got $6k but that was like 6-7 years ago before shit went crazy.

You are not in traffic, you ARE traffic.

Yeah, they aren’t buying 2500 $20M homes. They are most likely buying 2,000 $2500 homes. And that affects a shitload of people who are already scraping by.

I need a truck bed. I don’t know that I’ll ever own an SUV. I don’t have kids. I rarely drive with more than two passengers. And I really don’t have a need for it. Wife has a small suv RAV and it is...

Nissan and Toyota are better than the Ford in terms of reliability and resale. And fuck Ford.

Pretty sure your subsequent post is what he is referring to.

Opinions on the Nissan Titan as a work truck, vs Tundra vs Silverado? Don't need a ton of towing capability, just need space and reliability. Reliability rating seem better than average.

Damn, if Woodward gets into the DH business, that could be really cool for Copper. I have some friends would were builders/maintenance there for a long time and they were just doing tourist trails.

ETA: Well, I guess that was already posted. Read it anyway...

Gonna get cold when that windshield falls out.

I mean, yeah, pretty much. Like I said before, I'd buy a jeep if it was just for fun and I had money to throw at it.

Look, everything sucks. Not a great time to buy either. I've been shopping...

Dude, they didn't even glue the windshields in right. The motors are exploding. The brakes and suspension are all fucked up. If I was on a wait list for one of these I'd take my money and run and...

Ha, that's better than I got in 2012.

I owned a CJ7 for many years. Loved that thing. Really learned a lot about working on vehicles from that thing.

The only car that I would avoid more than a JGC would be a Bronco, either model....

Also look at ARMs if they have a lower rate. We had a 5 year plan of buy, rent, then sell. Took out a 7/1 ARM, and could have refinanced if we wanted to, but we sold at 4.5 yrs. Feeling pretty...

Anyone who buys a Bronco at this point deserves everything that is coming to them.

That's probably when they start hooking up all the equipment.

I've got a Tacoma TRD OR manual w/ 32k miles that I've been debating selling for something bigger. Four door w/ 5.5' bed. Got a topper w/ windoors and Clazzio leather seat covers. Just need a...

I know this is a "Fuck Vail" thread, but that area on Keystone isn't some kind of wilderness area. "Alpine Tundra" maybe, but there's a shitload of old mines and mining roads up there. The forest...

Bluebird every morning, snow moves in around 2-3pm, get 6-12 every night, then bluebird again the next morning. That's a groundhog's day that I could get on board with.

Whenever we get a wet summer I start dreaming of a "Wet" winter. But alas, it is rare.

Well, I jinxed that, been pouring harder than I've seen it rain for a long time today. Guess it's a good day to get some work done. Went and saw Top Gun in the theatre yesterday, shoulda done that...

Yeah, was thinking the same thing. It rains almost every day, but not for long, and not too much. Hasn't really prevented me from doing anything and the air has sure been nice and clear all summer...

Having Monarch, Taos, and Bridger days on the Basin pass makes up for it I guess. Sorry, I don't know the annoying nicknames for those resorts though.

It'll be interesting to see how ski area...

Yeah, we miss having Crusty Butt and ABay on the same pass.

Only time I had problems with bugs around CB was camping on Cement creek and riding Reno-Flag-Bear-Deadman's. The black flies definitely motivated me to keep riding.

THat's what I was going to suggest too. Just get insurance. We added it to our homeowner's policy on our rental condo. Never lost sleep over it. We didn't have an LLC.

Honestly not trying to be snide, but as you can see, it ain't a free for all anymore and you'll probably be at a campsite near other people. That's just the new reality down there. I've just...

Good luck.

You got pounders of Utica Club? Damn! We just started getting 12oz cans of it here and it is officially my summer beer.

Just bought a Nissan NV200 mini cargo van. Unfortunately it'll be used mostly as a work vehicle but I plan to take it on a few camping trips. These things are pretty nice as campers.

Mountain bikers and hikers bitching about motorcycles on the trails built by/for motorcycles. Fucking idiots.

No pics, but we went to a dog park w/ a bar/restaurant yesterday in Denver. Pretty nice to let the dog meet a bunch of other buddies while I sip some beers with lunch.

Maybe not the biggest secret, but I stumbled across the Fruit bowl in Moab last year while I was tooling around on the Moto. Pretty cool. I'd love to go back and play around with some gear.

Inventory up 60% here over last year. Which is a good thing. Shaking out the investors. I hope it continues. I just hope that a downturn doesn't stop or delay any affordable new builds in this...

Dude, it ain't rocket surgery...

Yeah, it annoys me. three D chess bro.

The fact that anyone buys Audis and then complains when they break is mind bottling to me.

I have a friend who has a souped up Q7 and the only reason that she's been able to maintain it is...

Abasin put in a Verizon tower. You get good internet service there now. Which is nice for us working stiffs.

My wife traded her '20 Rav4 TRD-OR gasser in for a '21 Rav4 hybrid. So much better of a car. It is faster, (she got pulled over and got off with a warning no more than 10 mins after leaving the...

Nah, you made a good choice. Northside kitchen would have been another solid choice. Or Westside cafe. All good spots for breakfast.

Two Elks is a great ride. Last few times I rode in that...

Sand it down, Acetone, and Primer, then Paint. If you get a windshield changed, have them do the same because chances are it'll have rust under there as well.

I learned this the hard way. My...

Shoulda Gone to VBC and got some RMT's. You might have run into MTM
