    If I can get a 4wd Ram pulling a camper in there I’ll probably end up there with wife and dog then. further research planned.

    Great write up and pics. Thanks for sharing.
  3. Can’t wait to hear your report.
  4. This is exceptionally cool and I can’t say enough how special it is you guys are riding together. Wether I’m riding hard stuff with my son, or just short back roads with my dad on his Spyder… the time together is sacred as we all know it won’t last. Time conquers all of us eventually. thanks for sharing the vids.

    Knee braces or guards?

    I spent the day yesterday in AZ riding trials with two other pro level ish trials riders and a hard enduro guy. They all use Pods so I think I’m going that direction. Hard enduro guy suggested the carbon fiber might not be worth the extra spend so probably around $500 instead of $800

    Knee braces or guards?

    I’ve recently had some x ray and MRI done. I’m thinking I can get my doc to prescribe knee braces. Leatt are approved medical devices. I was also thinking POD. Will look at these other brands too. thanks guys!
  7. Lodging in this town has been frighteningly tight for a long time. Wish I could help, best of luck in your search.

    Knee braces or guards?

    Bringing back this thread with hopes for further comment from knee brace users. it occurred to me that I may want to preemptively buy some of these as I’m discovering I am no longer bullet proof. a lot of Black Friday sales this weekend. Seems like the right time to pull the trigger.

    Phone based offline navigation

    If a guy could afford all the mounts, it would be cool to run multiple apps for a few trips and see what he liked / disliked about each one.

    So is this kind of where you’re going with all those phones?

    Lots of new members recently

    Hi Birdi, welcome. You are right about Mtn Bike skills transferring well to moto. I hope to see you on the trail soon. There is sooooooo much great riding in our county!
  13. "who put this here?"........🤣 Well played Padu!
  14. It's all a compromise. The more I try to get down to 1 system, the more I feel like I need 3. What I really need is a sponsor. 😂
  15. I’ve always been an ADV suit kind of guy. Touring through endless climate zones. Think Klim Badlands or Carlsbad jacket and pant. I just finished a 2 week tour to / through Colorado (BDR) with Mosko’s new Woodsman pant. I am now sold on the wearing separate armor style of clothing and protection. Mosko has been out of stock on the Forcefield chest protector and I haven’t found it elsewhere due to supply chain issues like many items. But I’m not sure that’s the best answer for upper body anyway. So I thought I’d ping the group here as you folks have about a thousand years of combined experience! Here’s what I have… forcefield knee armor under Mosko Woodsman pants. This works for me for touring. I am pretty sure I’ll want a Baja /Mojave/Borrego specific pant for local riding on 100* days though. My immediate need is for an upper armor system that fits the following Hot weather need. I stand and walk for hours coaching in Borrego October thru April, wearing a light long sleeve shirt, hopping on the bike occasionally to demo a ride drill. I want a quality armor vest/top that I can throw on quickly and take off quickly for short or long trail rides between the drills. Airflow is paramount. Quick easy on and off is important. I can and will usually carry an abrasion resistant shell for when it turns cool. I really like the Forcefield knee pads and am planning to buy them for elbows too. The chest pad I’m told is top quality and function for protection and comfort. Im thinking TekVest might be too much (heavy and bulk). So from the folks that have lived and ridden here most of there lives… what is your preferred system and product for upper body? By the way, I wear a 2L water bladder at all times All tools are on the bike though where I prefer they stay. I usually wear a Leatt neck brace as well. Your thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated.
  16. Great RR, Bobs mishap aside.
  17. Sweet! Sounds like mission accomplished. Wish I could’ve added the 1250 to the stable today, even though that’s probably outside of the objective.
  18. I know. The snobbery runs deep.
  19. I’m,…… can you spell K…T…. Um, what was that last letter again? just kidding. not really. actually? No. I’m kidding. And heavily outnumbered here. 8-)
  20. ☹️I’m not gonna make it.
  21. Yikes! Spiral fractures = no joke!!!!
