Nothin too spectacular but it was over 70 today and it felt like 90. I guess spring is here and I love it...Still snow on the ground in some areas...

I put on about 20 miles...Figured I'd bring the camera...

Driving through water :eek: that can get the fish cops after you here! This kind of behavior from someone sworn to uphold the law. tsk tsk:p: I wouldn't even think about doing it! Oh and driving a snowmobile over open water is the same offense.
Nice pics though.

Looks like some great riding Nick. Have you had that Honda on a steep place and had all four wheels digging yet? Thats giving me the fever to hit some mountain trails.

Looks like you have some decent riding out your way. Alot of trails are getting shut down here over the last 4-5 years from all the city folks buying up land. They seem to think it is ok to close off the trail on their property but ride the remaining trails on other private land. They will have to learn it is a two way street around here. I just missed out on a 2007 Can-Am with 108 miles and a transferable warranty for $5500, i did a some work at a lady friends home and it has always been garaged. She sold it to buy the Polaris Razor side-by-side.

Shoulda taken the deal. I looked at Can-Am's before I bought my Honda. I still cant believe how much power its got. I'm up to 58 miles so far. I'm gonna change the oil at 100. You know, you're not far from me. Maybe we need to set up something to do a little wheeling...

Here's a cool shot from the bridge...

do you have any accessories for your wheeler yet? My friends dad has a Rincon, he loves it, well loved it till his son beat him with his Brute Force. But he has a winch and the after-market wheels, super sharp looking. I might have to buy it from him when he decides he's due for a newer one.

04-19-2008, 11:40 AM
I dont. I'm not sure if I'm gonna get anything for it. Maybe a winch down the road but I'm pretty content with what I've got for now. Maybe some more aggressive rubber at some point...

man that last picture on the second set is something else.

last time i went wheeling i rolled up onto an methlab, pretty scary situation. any of that crap in your area?

Unit453
04-19-2008, 01:41 PM
I'm sure there are but not in any areas that I wheel in...Even if there are, I wouldnt know about them. I'd be more likely to come across pot plants than anything else...

It is pretty country that many people dont know exists up here...It just that winter is so damn long and cold, it drives people away...

Where's you helmet young man? That's what my mom would ask you if she saw you riding like that! I don't hardly ever ride mine without a helmet. But it didn't look like you were hauling the mail! Nice shots too. I wish there were places like that around me to ride. Just cornfields!

Speaking of tires, The first thing i did to my Grizz was put new wheels/tires. What a Difference! I go more places in 2 wheel now that i needed 4 wheel with the stock tires. Get you some ITP Holeshot ATR's, they ride so good and get great traction.

I dont like wearing a helmet...(I know, I know, let me have it) I don t go haulin ass around. I'm quite content with 15-20mph trail riding.

I never rode a motorcycle. But this past weekend, I think I realized why people do. Its been so cold and shitty for such a long time, I felt like I was locked up inside. At 75 degrees, the wind in your face, open air out in the country, I think I felt it. I think I felt freedom....Is that possible?

I'm so jealous. I'm stuck at school, which means no four-wheelin yet. Maybe when I get home for the summer, I'll get out on some trails and get some photos as well. I know up North, your allowed to ride all over the place.

All over, to include roads. Gotta have registration and insurance though. I picked up insurance on it and my rates only went up 70 bucks a year. Its a whole different world up here than where you are down there... If you get a free weekend, load up your wheeler and bring it up here...

I'm here now for the week finalizing plans. I wont be home until friday.

I start my work week on sundays so anything thursday, friday or saturday is great. Lets shoot for the following weekend then. Also there's a get together we're trying to plan if you're interested.

I'm not a big drinker so its doubtful that I'll ever bring beer along for thr ride...I drink more ice t than anything else. Besides, 'drinking and driving' is illegal...

Which is why I prefer to 'sip and cruise.' ):h


Its bad enough I dont like wearing a helmet, let alone adding alcohol on top of that...
