    Only the best.
    Had a guy at work give me this pressure washer for free. It was a store return he bought from home depot 4 years ago because it didnt run. He never did anything with it. Took me 10mins to get it running. $600 pressure washer never used for free. Even has a soap resivour and nozzles.

    Nice video. Sounds great. I've been wheeling somewhere near Noccalula in my old '87 Mazda about about 20 years ago. Looking on Googlemaps, I believe I went in off of Hinds Rd on the top side of the mtn.

    My sliders are at a friends shop getting sand blasted and primed but I might have them on by the end of the week. However, I'm still in the middle of modding my 4xI front bumper if anyone is bored and interested in that kind of thing:

    They have been clearing for the new addition to the neighborhood. Decided to go for a ride this afternoon on the trail to see how far it goes. It is almost 2 miles and was a nice little surprise drive.

    Looks great @baldridge

    Hey everybody! Any of you guys have Hero 7's or recent model Go Pro's? My Wife's cracked randomly when we were riding yesterday. Nothing hit it at all. You can hear the crack if you turn up the volume. This is onboard her Ducati and it's clear to me nothing out of the ordinary happened. It's in 1080p if it doesn't auto play in that resolution

    What kind of Duc does your wife ride? I used to work with a guy that had a Duc Monster, the v-twin sounded really nice!

    I didn't know yall rode. I started teaching Jeannie how to ride a motorcycle many years ago, but for some reason, we never pursued it. I think we're gonna pick up some dual-sport bikes so she can learn to ride.

    I have a hero 7 and no issues like that. You don’t think some super small absolutely tiny rock or something could have done it?

    Tiffany actual rode before I did. I would like a pair of honda groms with offroad buns to ride dirtroads. I think that would be fun.

    I really don't think so. She was behind our friend Steven but off to the left. My GoPro 4 has been tagged by a rock and it didn't break. It's visible before it impacts it at that frame rate....right? I'm wondering if this is a thermal expansion situation. It was pretty cool yesterday, sun was baking on it and crack. I really don't know though. I hope we get a replacement from GoPro. It was her bday present and the first time she used it.

    Yeah I would’ve thought you could see it and my GoPro has held up to me eating shit on my mountain bike so....it seems odd for sure.

    Stoney is only wild if you make it that way. I took my 2wd out for a full day with the group. I think I only didn't go up one obstacle that a few of us turned around on.

    Morning all

    From AlabamaWX

    ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY AHEAD: A cold front passed through Alabama in dry fashion last night, and we are forecasting another beautiful day across the Deep South. With ample sunshine, expect a high close to 70 degrees this afternoon with low humidity levels. The average high for May 11 at Birmingham is 80.

    REST OF THE WEEK: THe upper trough over the eastern U.S. will be replaced by an upper ridge, and accordingly temperatures will begin to warm up. The high tomorrow will be in the mid-70s, followed by low-80s Wednesday. Then, mid-80s are likely Thursday and Friday as the warm-up continues. Most of Alabama will be dry through the week, although a few isolated showers can’t be totally ruled out near the Mississippi and Tennessee border late in the week.

    THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Not much change; a very quiet pattern continues with summer-like temperatures. Highs Saturday and Sunday will be in the mid to upper 80s with a partly sunny sky. The best chance of rain will stay west and north of Alabama, although a few isolated showers could pop up over the far western and northern counties of our state.

    NEXT WEEK: The very warm, dry pattern will likely continue with an upper ridge over the region. Highs will remain well up in the 80s with little if any chance of really meaningful rain for a decent part of the week. No sign of any heavy rain or severe weather issues here over the next seven to ten days.

    I shoot those things on site. They are very destructive and cause lots of damage to your yard, and your home if they get underneath. Plus they carry leprosy.

    I can’t shoot where I live, but they left pretty easily. Went to put the dogs inside and when I came back they had disappeared. This shed was ancienttttt lol. No telling how long mama and other family members had been living under there.
