    So we all have been on 3 wheels, but today was my first time on 2!!:eek: It came on a sharp, steep, narrow switch back on vic's cat trail at hungry valley in gorman, ca. As I turned down the switch back I suddenly found myself teetering, on the drivers front and passengers rear. With the cliff too close to complete the turn. So as my wife was freekin on the downhill side, I sat there and thought about what to do next. I was in 4lo allready and cranked the wheel hard over and thru it in reverse. That worked like a charm got the front flopped back onto the trail and we continued down. We got to the bottom and caught our breath. Well I know I could of done a lot better but still got myself out of it. So now I lookin to hear other teetering stories. Oh and happy father's day to all my fellow TW dads.
