    Nope, neither of us want kids and we are pretty happy with the space in BabyT for nearby recreation. I want the midrise top so Ash's kennel fits with the platform. Lizzy is getting a "new" car soon because hers is 2wd. I'm guessing it will be a Subaru or another AWD as she's shown interest in those. That's not happening until we see the winters out here though.

    Just like Marc. Foot to the floor, when it dips to about 30 mph a little over half way up ill downshift into 1st, a violent lurch redlines me to about 37 to 40, and i repeat the process when it drops to 30 again till i get to the top.

    Doing it on the Ducati though. hahaha totally different story.

    I was driving up the pass almost ever day monday to friday to go skiing and train for mt hood last spring. Poor truck lol

    Had a pretty wild experience tonight at the village. Went for an after work bike ride up the mountain which ended up taking me longer than i thought and as i was coming into the last bit of the trail i was riding basically by moon light, so i cant see shit. I round a corner out of some trees and almost slam right into a momma moose who jumped out of the trees around the end of the turn. She goes out about 15 ft from the trail and i sit still waiting for her to do something. And right as I wonder if theres a baby...the freakin baby moose starts rustling and making noise and runs out after the mom too. I watch them for a bit and start to ride down. making sure they weren't following. Ive been super close to moose before...but never been that close to running into one on a bike!

    Yikes, bet that was a pucker moment. I've ridden up on them on dirtbikes before and even that was a little nerve racking. That'll be a big no thanks for me on a bicycle or on foot.

    There wasn't much info at all, but for 800 bucks I figured it was worth the gamble!

    Got it for $750. Not bad but not great either. Have to scope it out more in the daylight. Has a hack job CAI on it, she needs a little TLC

    Nice, should be a fun project. There was a guy down in Cheyenne that had a 3.4 on CL when I was looking at picking it up.

    For now I will mess with it enough to get it running and see what's wrong with it but maybe someday if I like it enough still, I want to do this to it
