zippy

I are a Redneck through and through. Is that the trailer he had in Rose City. Yep just tall enough on the sides to be at the top of the bikes, and he pulls a tarp across the top. Seems to work well.

Yep Torque wrench was a wonderful thing to have when i rebuilt my sherco motor. Use it far more than I thought I would for normal maintenance things.

Cardboard and Duct Tape. Light weight and water proof. A Handyman's 2 favorite materials.........Maybe some bailing wire can be used for tie downs. Then ya got all 3 of the favorite materials.

If you break the head off or pull the threads out of the hole then it was too tight. So stop just before that happens. Yep I are a smart

Yep AMA card required for riding MOTA events. We do have an event site in Indiana also.

Betcha I could still finish last. I have been known to purposely 5 sections in an extremely rainy event just for fun. Actually the one I am thinking of was an event at Windsor and I may still have placed 3rd that day, of Course there would have to have been only 3 riders in ADV for that to happen. For some reason Windfall did not offer to be my minder/pillow............

WOO HOO I'M A WINNER!!!!!! I would like to take a moment to thank those that put forth the effort of the contest. Brian was a heck of a competitor, A true gentleman in the sport of caption writing. Craig PM on its way

GOOD LUCK PAUL!!!!!!!!!

Hey ya'll know if any of the MOTA Canadians are gonna make it there?

It was a great event. Even though I chickened out on the section 8 barrel. Hey Windfall, I got more last place finishes than you, I had my typical over 100 score, but had fun. Even had a few cleans, so I did something right. The new guy that Mitchell brought and rode the black montesa was all smiles all the way home. (we may have him hooked) OH the Border crossing.........Can we say SMOOTH SAILING. I was home 4 hours sooner than last time.

Marvin says "That Dale is such an electrifying fellow" or "I get such a charge outa you."

WHOA! I gotta ride that course!!!!! It made my hair stand up just walking it!!

GOOD LUCK!!!! to all from Michigan. Above all HAVE FUN!!! Hey Firstgear if you crash, just say that one is for me cuz I won't be there. So it would be like I was riding it. Only if you ride a Beta.

yea but unfortunately he was uh hem left-handed.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA EVER SO SLIGHTLY USED!!!!!! I guess that is one way to refer to what he has done to it. OK I really can't say anything bad about the guy because he has no fear (tries any obstacle you put in front of him), has tons of natural talent for the sport, and he is a truly nice guy. Anybody know if Mr Kutchey will be in Windsor? Kjax, you just need a bigger hammer to push them bar ends in!!!!!

I LIKE IT!!! Biff has a winning combination of overactive imagination, enjoys change, and a get it finished attitude. Methinks I need to redo the "Sherco of Death" I am getting Jealous of how good Biff's bike looks.

Yeah First gear is just that great of a guy. Are you suggesting that if my bike was in tip top shape I would ride better?

AH Yes, He is a dealer, the GREAT AND MIGHTY PARTS SUPPLIER TO TRIALS GODS!!

Maybe not, but I have been known to go "OH S**T" as I go over a new set of bars.

ride one season, flip tire around and ride second season. Then beg the wifey for money for new tire.

Sweating is good for ya, cleans out the toxins. Makes room for more new ones to put back in the body. Here in Michigan, a hot day is actually not too bad to ride in as long as the humidity is low. When it is 85 F, and 90% humidity that's a killer. I wear a Short-sleeve shirt and MX pants zipped off to make shorts. Drink plenty of fluids, Usually water and electrolyte replacement drinks work best. But just get used to the idea of being hot cuz it won't go away.

Are you sure you would have enough money for a full tank??????? Maybe need to win twice..

First off had a blast, I got 3rd place both days YEEEAAAAAHHHHH! ok so there was only 3 riders in ADV. Two day seems like the way to go. Really liked starting Sunday at 10:00, works better for those of us that work Sunday night. Loop length was a bit long, and I had heard some of the lower classes, Beginner Novice etc. had some trouble with the rutted up portions of the loop. I would imagine the rutted up downhills gave them trouble. One more about the loop. I really liked how the parking/camping area was in the middle, I would ride Sections 1-6 Stop get a drink, then ride 7-10, stop get a drink, worked really well. Sections--- I thought the ADV lines were just about right. One of the top ADV riders was getting 30-something both days so I don't think they need to be made more difficult. I think there was a good mix of technical and big "Oh Crap" stuff. Camping charge---can't be too bad it also included parking for both days. Concessions or food----I usually don't eat till later, and then I like to go to restaurant and sit in a soft chair to match my squishy behind. Distance-----All events in MI are approx. 2 hrs for me so distance good.

Not sure what a "Decoke" is but when I rebuilt my Sherco, I just used hot soapy water and one of those sponges with the green scrubby on one side. Seemed to do an excellent job removing all the black burnt crap from the head and piston. Did take a little elbow grease for the piston.

I may have room to bring my "Trials Quad" OK it is just a 1986 Yamaha YFM80, but it has gone over a few logs and I can hop the front end around. (but then again who couldn't with this little quad)
