    Yea, I know. But, I know exactly what I'm looking for, which are the '95-'97 model year diesels. Only a matter of time, as more of these can now be imported due to the 25 year ban restriction.

    Not the most ethical, for sure, but that's the risk with private parties. Live and learn!

    ^^^THIS^^^! That's what's shitty. Money talks, but a deal is a deal. Seems like a lack of integrity.

    Great to see everyone at Beadlockers open House in Howards Grove. A true mom & pop shop. Clayton just started Beadlockers in March 2021. I already seen a few items I’ll need to pickup. Hopefully his business takes off! AEAA6373-5513-4FB9-BD48-D45FE4F483C1.jpg 231983A1-0373-4362-A7E7-FE1A0A3348D6.jpg

    Finally made it to 3 Sheeps Brewing company in Sheboygan. A pretty decent selection of taps. Outdoor patio and inside the tap room plenty of tables

    @BookieBob let's do a beer garden meet up soon. Like next week. :notsure:

    I'm visiting friends near Bear Creek this weekend. I'm going to ride up to the Pipeline tomorrow morning and putz around for a few hours before heading back to Milwaukee. :mudding:

    Nice! That's a cool event. We used to go every year.

    Yes! I'm in town that weekend so either of those days work for me.

    Yess!!

    You can't go to the Pipeline without stopping at Bro Rock!

    20210606_104445_HDR.jpg

    I just putzed around the usual spots and took a few BROtographs..

    These tires look even better with some dirt on them!

    20210606_133547_HDR.jpg

    Flexin' :rofl:

    20210606_133659_HDR.jpg

    I also went through a few sections that have been closed for the last few years due to tornado damage. They finally cleaned up most of it. There's a few spots with some serious rocks that I'm not sure I'll ever attempt.

    I also managed to piss off a bunch of yellow jackets or something similar. I was brushing against a tree branch and hear some buzzing. I rolled up the windows just in time to watch a crapload of bees starting flying all around and bouncing off the windows!

    They followed me until I finally got somewhere I could drive faster for a few minutes. All I could think on my way out was "I better not get stuck!!" I felt bad for disturbing them, but man those things are crazy!
