    IBA Certification Ride...

    Have fun. I did my SS1K two years ago and pretty much did the same route except backwards. I left at 3am and was home by 9pm. I was able to complete it in under 18 hours with a lunch stop and lots of quick stops for gas and stretching. my google route By the way these are the only two pictures...

    Continued Titus Canyon We caught up to Bugnatr and CAJW and friends in Stovepipe Wells and they were nice enough to let us tag along to Aguereberry Peak. Saturday morning we layered up for the rain and cold and took off alone towards Hole in the wall where we ran into Uberkul and his...

    We had a great time at FODS and are already looking forward to the next one. We ended up riding 400 miles over two days in Dust, Wind, Rain, Rocks, Sand, and Canyons. What more can you ask for. The only damage to report is a broken clutch cable on the KLX and a couple of bald tires. Friday pre...

    What does it cost you to fill up the FJR now?

    I agree. The extra cost of gas is not going to stop me, I may take less trips though. Hell a weekend trip out to the desert with my toys costs me a small fortune in gas but it is worth every penny. Truck = 40 [email protected] = 184.00, Trailer generator gas 30 [email protected] = 132.00, Gas for bikes 15...

    What does it cost you to fill up the FJR now?

    87 octane is at 4.40 a gallon in my area and diesel is at 4.60. It costs me around 22 bucks to fill up the bike and over 200.00 to fill up my truck with a 40 gallon tank. Sometimes I have to swipe my card 3 times to fill up since it cuts off at 75 bucks. Thankfully I work from home and only use...

    Shouldn't you be out golfing or something :P There's no way I'm parking my truck and trailer with my bikes in downtown Vegas. My new idea is to check out area 51 but its just an idea at this point.

    Well doesn't look like my two ideas are going to work. The racetrack is 130 miles one way from the hotel and that is just to much street riding for me on the DRZ. We will have enough of that over the weekend. Dumont is also out once I found out you need a 40 dollar pass to park and ride. Gotta...

    Yeah I saw that but I will be in my truck with a trailer. My truck is lifted and tops out at about 9ft. The parking garage at the nugget is 8ft max. Been there done that. I do like to stay there when I go on the bike.

    Are you still headed up Wednesday and thinking of exploring somewhere Thursday? I am thinking of either driving up Thursday and stopping by Dumont Dunes for a few hours since I'll drive right past it or heading up Wednesday night to the hotel and riding to the Racetrack Thursday morning. That's...

    How's this look for DIY tire changing?

    +10 on the Cycle hill. I started out using the hitch mount but that only lasted for two changes. I ended up mounting it in the garage. With 5 bikes in the garage and plenty of riding friends this is one of my best and most used tools.

    Ynotride and his wife will be dual sporting. I also have a F250 and 6x12 enclosed trailer we can use as a rescue vehicle if needed. I carry spare tubes, tools, tire pump and extra gas with me on the bike. If you need anyone to lead a 3rd or 4th group let me know.
