    I like that bracket but I wouldn't pay anything for it. I can make them for free. Look nice though

    That's the one I was thinking of, though I am picturing something more on the lines of bent sheet metal or welded plate for me.

    I miss working for a blacksmith.

    I probably will be all day working on my rack and rims, but out of general interest what does the pipeline look like time wise?

    Uhhhh really all depends! I haven't run it in a while. Took me and craig about 2 and a half, maybe 3 hours to run the entire thing. But there's an off cut that takes you back to the road about half way through!

    I was down on the Greenwood trails this morning. No snow in the woods at all, but the trails are very easy. Not really worth a drive from the city IMO. I'll be happy at work on Saturday(hahahahahaha lies) so no run for me.

    I'm down. The trails are really easy but theyre nice to take some time and bring some food because you end up at the ocean for a fire or whatnot. The first part of the trail is pretty tight with trees and shit so expect some pinstripes.

    Get a second person, get them to pump and hold the pedal, crack the bleeder, let the brake fluid exit, close and repeat!

    I've never done anything special for bleeding the brakes on any of the ABS equipped cars I worked on and I've never had any issues. They all stopped fine and I put a lot of miles on those brake jobs... and I'm still alive to talk about it :D

    I swapped off the winter tires today. They were about done for snow so I was going to use them for summer, but the truck tried to hydroplane on me a couple times. Turns out my camber is probably way off: I've chewed up the inside tread on one front tire. What's a good place to get an alignment around here?
