mctrails 38 Posted June 7, 2009 A group of us were out there today for another one of Mr. Bill's Great Adventures. Racer Bill led us on a fun filled ride for about 35 miles worth. A good workout indeed. Was a little chilly first thing in the morning but we lost the jackets real quick with the technical riding we were doing. We did the nice single track that Ozzy said you and he found. There were a couple of rocks and a little sand but was a lot of fun none the less. Good luck on your ride tomorrow.

TrophyHunter 15 Posted June 7, 2009 Do we need a plate? Last ride we did not. They're taking unplated 2 strokes so my guess would be no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted June 7, 2009 See you in the morning. Bob, do you have people meeting you early? Fakey & BS left Alpine at 6:30. They'll be riding & then meeting u. We didn't see anybody at the gas station, but saw a couple of pumpkin bearing trucks just south of 8... Looked like Alex, but wasn't sure... Paul had ZERO rear brake, so it was a very short day, but fun nonetheless... I'm just glad I didn't have any mechanical issues, or any crashes! THAT wouldve made for a rough morning!

paulmbowers 236 Posted June 8, 2009 lame. how did you loose[sic] the brakes. Good afternoon, Brad. I'm unclear about the "lame" remark. Could you please help me to understand? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaugh 1 Posted June 8, 2009 I thought it was lame your bike broke, I was looking forward to riding with you guys. the funny thing is another guy on a ktm named paul showed up and made up for your lack of rear brakes with his locked up front brake. Apparently this has happened on his other bike. 2 bikes with the same problem. What are the odds on that? fishy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCHWINN 0 Posted June 8, 2009 We rode around, we had fun, I lost my rear brake, we rode back, packed in and came home. Didn't see anyone else... Brakes are overated I did the 2008 Desert Dash with no back brakes, friday, saturday, sunday. Yes, down heart attack hill and all. Found a little piece of sand in the high pressure line when I got home. Dam Glamis sand Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted June 8, 2009 Yes, it was lame. I gotta tell you- I'm willing to accept I screwed up a few months ago with the oil filler, but this one has got me wondering. I've been wrenching on cars and bikes for almost 30 years, and I don't make THAT many dumb mistakes. But the filler cap on the brake master was completely missing. I load my bike in the evening before I ride early, so I'm not waking my neighbors around the alley behind out house at o-dark 30. I'm seriously beginning to wonder if I have a gremlin messing with my bike at night. The neighbors across the street used to have security cameras pointed across at us- I've emailed to ask for last nights recordings. We had a good ride anyway...
