    Ffff that. I've put too much work into this thing to give up on it. Besides, I still need it to shut Ramon and Danny up lol

    Yeah well this is the Mudrunner's good home. Most people would've junked it after it blew the head gasket

    Don't get me wrong may-july is nice but 285 can be a parking lot and you can't really "get away" plus I am in NM Mon-Fri May-August with a week "off". Works out nicely actually.

    I got an invite to go snowmobiling up in Wyoming next weekend. I need to figure out when the sliders will be done. Makes it easy if it is on the way!

    If you find out let me know. It has only been a week so not sure what he has done or not.

    I figure once it starts to stay warm I can start hitting some local trails. I know some of the higher elevation trails don't clear out till August

    By next week that would be two. Just curious. I am not in a rush, but I don't want to have to go to the front range unless I have to. lol

    We will have to see when our schedules overlap. I can show you some cool areas. Also go some places I didn't want to go alone... haha

    IIRC there was going to be a beginning of May meet in Deckers. Honestly tires and a lift and you can do 90% of the dirt roads in colorado. Really don't need recovery gear for most of them. Definitely exceptions though.
