If you replace it with a Husky you will need to have 5 bikes like she does. Thats no solution! First where do you live? If you are mechanicallly inclinced you can do it yourself with new springs all around. What is it that you do not like, or are having trouble with?

Now your learning. When are we going. Its not a Dual Sport if your only rideing. Anyways; Whatever! Next time I will give more notice. It would be nice to do a long morning run, take a break and relax, then do an extended evening into night ride. I had a lot of fun, so hopefully I will be going more often. -

I ended up going last night. Went alone. Got up early this morning had coffee, and off I went. I rode most of Lake Silverwood, all of miller canyon. First photo is a downhill that I decided against going down. Was a very long steep hill on the other side that I wanted to do, just did not know if I could get out without trouble. I stopped where the rock is. A little late im afraid. I had to try and turn around on the decline. It was early and I did not want to ruin the day. That was the only hill up or down that I turned away from. Rode everything forwards and back. The bike was running fantastic. Probably the best day of technical riding I have ever had. I think those new pivoting pegs had alot to do with it. Hooked up with a couple as I was coming out of miller canyon. They took me to pinnacles, some single track up to Lake arrowhead. I ate lunch at the lake. Beautiful. Rode the street back to my place to relax for a couple hours during mid day heat. The bike is chilling in the back of the cabin. Early afternoon I went back into miller canyon searching for some roads. Found the Tunnel trail that was supposed to be closed. Wasnt. Did some exploring where the fires where. On the way back I found a tiny trail with a ribbon. Single track some club had marked out. Did it! I wanted to go down to Deep Creek , but did not have time. Did about 80 miles. All in all it was fantastic! Wish someone could of gone. Next time it should be and all day ride during the week to avoid people on the trails. -

I guess the only good place left to ride is from Carlsbad to Mexico for surf trips. -

I managed not to run into anyone! I did see people in certain parts. Seems those 4x4 golf cart things are getting really popular. The trails were really rutted and torn up. I have not ridden there in a couple of years and was suprised. -
I am loading the bike right now. I would like to hit some trails. If no one responds local, I am heading up to silverwood/ arrowhead!
-
Sorry Mallet! The bike is already loaded. It will be trucked somewhere, and it aint Carlsbad. I guess I am headed to the casa grande in the mountains. I will be going up tonight so that I can rest and get an early start. I guess I will be riding by myself.
-
Damn Dug! You know how to rain on the parade. Thanks for the heads up! If no trails around here happen, I will do miller canyon at silverwood and do some exploring up into arrowhead area. It looks like the lower part of the mountain is open. I have to get out and ride.

Damn Austrailians!

255 hits and not a single taker? Is it the green sticker or no one wants to ride with a new rider? Im gonna go up to northern california this weekend and visit family since there isn't any interest in riding. I know all the trails trails out in jacumba area like the back of my hand, I just haven't done em on a bike yet. I'll post up again once I've done the trails and am sure I won't hold up the pace... And hopefully I'll have a plated bike that isn't a rolling death trap by then Ahh man. I was waiting to see what the schedule was like. I was going to work on the bike tomorrow and get it prepped for some dirt. Might have to be a sand flea, or maybe do some arrowhead. -
Were you the one that flattened thier tires?
-
Tank top. Ouch!! I bet that girl got some serious road rash, maybe broken bones. Even when hot I wear gloves just in case I go down I can use my hands to try and soften blow.
