Baja Enduro Club Ride 4NOV
cmayer31 replied to robertaccio's topic in Baja Info, Upcoming Rides, Ride Reports, Photos, etc.
Sorry to hear about the crash! I was hit on the road in May and activated the trauma unit at Palomar. With my PPO, that maxed my out of pocket pretty quick. Hope you have a quick recovery! -
CABDR with the Desert X, Section 4 - May 2023
cmayer31 replied to padu's topic in 4 Days & Longer Trip Write-Ups and Photos
I really need to get some crash bars on my X and get in the dirt. 100 miles a day commuting on it then watching your series makes me overly aware of the disservice I'm providing this bike. -
Lots of good info here. Will be getting tires on my 1200gs within the next few months. I like to think it'll be a 50/50 adventure bike, but truth is I do 100 miles of slab a day on it commuting now. Trailmax mission makes the most sense, but will take a good look at the offerings from Motoz now as well.

Ouch

Congrats on getting the bike back! Huge props to Ken and the team that assembled to help make the recovery.

Welcome to the board! Was out in Ocotillo Wells and Anza Borrego last week and love the riding/camping out there. Do you have a number for the off road recovery service? Would be a good number to store in the phone or tape inside the glove box

BLM gets new power
cmayer31 posted a topic in Important Issues, Environmental-Land Use Issues, Important Meetings & Local Information
Don't know if this is part of the New Omnibus Public Lands Bill, but I just saw a news article on this and it doesn't sound good. Here's a summary: The new policy creates a management category called "Wild Lands". BLM Director Bob Abbey said it hasn't been decided how many acres are expected be designated as "Wild Lands" and whether those acres will be off-limits to motorized recreation or commercial development while under congressional review. It's also unclear whether there will be a time limit on how long acres can be managed as "Wild Lands" before a decision is made on their future. Sounds like BLM field staff can close down BLM land until it goes through an official review. From MSNBC -
Radio Communications Needed for Desert Dash
cmayer31 replied to KTMrad's topic in Upcoming Organized or Promoted Rides and Events
Randy, I have not signed up on the volunteer list, but I do have a 2m and license. If you need more licensed people for the permit let me know, and I'll sign up for radio duty. -
I've been following that thread as well and it is a very enlightening read. It is pretty remarkable the series of small errors that turned into a life threatening event. I'm most disappointed in the actions of the BLM guy, but he also isn't part of the thread so we don't hear his side of the story. Either way, I've asked for a SPOT 2 for Xmas.

Bishop: North by Northeast
cmayer31 replied to Sneeker's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
One of my favorite areas to camp and fish. One of these days I'll have to take the bike along! Looks like it was a great trip. -
Good to know! There's no lack of electrical gremlins around

BAJA 1000 RIGHT NOW

Been watching the feed and tracker while listening to weatherman. Too bad some fool has his mic open so the weatherman feed is kind of useless right now -
Secret Legit trail again 11/09/10
cmayer31 replied to dirt dame's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
Looks like fun; fishing and riding! Good to know fishing is free on the north end of the lake. I might have to check that area out. Is fishing from the shore there a practice of thumb twiddling more often than not? Great pictures, would much rather be out there than locked up in this office! -
Found out kind of late that one of my friends was racing in the money race on Sunday, so we went out to cheer him on. Was a difficult course to spectate, so we hung out near the pits where his wife was. Had a good time and hope the turnout was enough to have the Storm stadium step up and host it again. Too bad they can't run through the town, but still fun being out there hanging out. Anyone from here run on Sat. or Sun.?

Happy Birthday!

I love my Hondas I was just giving a little sarcasm to some of the orange crew around here. If I were doing this event I'd actually go up and take a look at that bike.
-
Too bad it's a Honda : 1976 Honda for $500 And it's street legal
-
Sounds like a great event! I have an 81-84 XR50 or ZR50 in a million pieces just taking up room in the garage. Might be time to put it back together!
-
Yep, I'm a plus member and they made me get RV / Motorcycle when I decided to have the street bike covered. I've also had a friends car tower 50 some miles with no question asked; I just had to be there for the tow, but that was years ago.

Awesome! Great riding and filming.

Squirrel's Revenge
cmayer31 replied to BelnapAir's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
Dang, sorry to hear about the leg Mike! Have a speedy recovery! -
Great thread! Strega thanks for keeping it on track. My dad had two 5.0s and '86 and an '89. The '89 was the first car I ever took over 100mph (in a controlled environment with professional driver ). My aunt and dad both raced SCCA and I've always been around fun cars. Growing up working on classics with my dad was a huge part of my childhood and highly recommend it for family time. He also had a spitfire, bugeyed sprite, cortina, corvair, and the list goes on and on, so it's cool to see some of those mentioned here. Anyhow, I bought this in high school and still have it sitting in my garage. I drive it when I can and am always tinkering slowly building it into what I want. and a few years ago when I decided to move up to a modern block, bored and stroked with a roller cam and all the goodies. My dad's always been around to help out with this one too. It can be a real b i t c... of a car at times

Big Bear Coon Cabin Weekend Adventure
cmayer31 replied to dsfox's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
I got bit by the work thing this week too. I'll be heading up after work, but probably won't arrive until 10-11pm. Will probably just sleep in the truck Friday night . -

What everyone will say -
Sorry to hear the news Brian; they really are our best friends and so tough when we have to let them go.
