paulmbowers 236 Posted April 20, 2011 Considering Corral Canyon early Friday morning for a few hours, subject to any number of variables both known and unknown, to be discovered over the next couple days. Open to a wide variety of abilities, but competence, courtesy and preparedness are a must. Anybody up for it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteelRain 0 Posted April 20, 2011 I have Friday off...Sounds fun. I'll likely stay all day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Champ 116 Posted April 21, 2011 What kind of variables? Just kidding, hey I have to work but if you want to leave your truck in a non adventure pass secure place moments from the road into Corral let me know. Just park at my house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted April 21, 2011 UC, I'm good for the pass, but thanks! Looks like this is on. Meeting where Kernan crosses the road, kickstands up 0830. Just a couple/few hours, and MAY include some electrical gremlin-bashing, but I think I'm OK. 146.505 p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulmbowers 236 Posted April 21, 2011 Oh, I'm well-equipped for bashin' electrical gremlins. You showing up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteelRain 0 Posted April 22, 2011 Ugh... Went to load the bike noticed the front tire was low, filled it and it went empty. Unloaded the bike, changed the tire and pinched my spare HD tube. I'll be out after I get a tube in the morning, don't wait for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted April 22, 2011 Not a single pic! Maybe Doug took one or two whilst I was rolling around in the mud. Not, however as bad as a FJ we discovered stuck bigtime in the mud on the ring road. Two couples, with their dog, had been there all night. Pitched their tent, even. We were able to find some BP agents (you know, LEO's?) who were able to pull them out. But my electrical gremlin(s) appear to have decamped. We had a great ride this morning thanks Dug!

DigDug 0 Posted April 25, 2011 take lots of pics Only two (sorry Paul!): It was a great few hour rides. Thanks Paul for dragging me out of the house on a beautiful day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted April 25, 2011 Great. The only two images are when I faked a fall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DigDug 0 Posted April 25, 2011 Great. The only two images are when I faked a fall. I couldn't get the camera out fast enough for your first on (into the mud). It was like a great slo-motion fall where the bike never fell. Just you sliding down the hill upside down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulmbowers 236 Posted April 25, 2011 Stupid iPhone. It was damn HI-larious going over the bars and headfirst into the mudbog. Then flopping around like a beached steelhead to get feetdown and headup. Good times. For Dug anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
