    That's the place.

    I've been itching to get out riding again. Need to head to the desert one of these weekends when the weather holds out.

    Otherwise, hit me up if you're around this summer and want to go for a ride. :thumbsup:

    What level of technical do you ride? I’m always looking for people that like riding blacks that aren’t jumps and such.

    But jumps are the best!

    I'm am OK rider, but will give about anything a go. Only picked up my bike and started taking it seriously last spring, but I'm very comfortable on 2 wheels.

    Maybe 2-3 Major destinations from riding, allowing people to ride as much or a little as they want at each place?

    They're both fun. Come out west again and ride a good MTB on a good trail and it will change your mind.
    Two too many strokes. :p

    I love my little 150 for the technical single tracks.

    Oh, and build update being this is supposed to be a build thread. :rofl:

    Solo LCAs should be showing up whenever UPS decides they want to drive in the snow. I know I said I wouldn't, but hey, I needed new bushings anyways....

    @Night Eagle is hopefully picking up an 80 series axle for me tomorrow.



    About time to get to work. :sawzall:

    Hopefully there's not many more updates. I don't want to be working on this pile like last year....



    Although-

    I do have some BD fog lights to replace my old PIAAs

    Also need to install the fridge and reorganize the bed.

    Also going to give some thought into moving the shocks outside the frame with the wider axle.

    Well shit, here we go again.:anonymous::bananadead:


    edit: should probably fab that coilbucket crossbrace I was thinking about too

    and need to build a new midskid of some sort
