Sometimes i amaze myself.

On the bright side i got decals from Deals gap out of the trip.

So true, I know a few people where I live that have been run off the road, scary if the side ditch is WAY DOWN... I was worried the weight would transfer back my way and keep coming right onto ME ?

Completely agree, it was a Saturday and as you can see we were not the only ones out having fun. I know the trucks have the right of way out there, but maybe take it back about 20% so everyone gets home for dinner....

Living somewhere there arnt any trails to go riding off road might have something to do with it! Not riding if moisture levels are over 22% is another! @XTreme Courtesy phone please, cleaning advice needed! I do take care of my things so they last longer, im still wearing levis i bought in the late 1970's. ??

I was out riding along the forest service roads the other day...on a lovely summer day, not knowing the close encounter with danger that was in my near future. Now riding an adventure bike in the backcountry or participating in any activity really, always has the potential for accidents to happen. On these forest service roads in ? British Columbia many interesting things await you around a corner, some perhaps travelling a little swiftly and at angles that can be alarming. ? A scary moment for all involved as the Grasshopper meets a monster on a lovely ? summer day.

Have I ever mentioned that @Tym's unstable Michelle?

The ditch with no massive wheels rolling over you would have been the correct side to fall onto

I hate to be the voice of reason but someone has to. Water splashing onto an plugged powertool!

Have your sneakers become one with the water

He was so spooked by the cyclist that he must have been eating a sandwich or something, for sure not paying attention. I was happy that I managed to pull over and not fall into the ditch beside me. I even put the bike into neutral without knowing I did. ?

I'm hoping the truck driver needed to change is underwear when he got home, brown zone for all involved. ? You are so right, the Himalayan is perfect for the Sunshine Coast and the conditions here, I love it. I was about 45mins from home so I guess I could have dragged my mangled body home to die if needed.... I was so happy to be alive that day, truly. Had to crack open a bottle of expensive Cognac when I got home. ?

What an arsehole, he obviosly wasn't paying attention. Good job you two pulled over smartish .

Right idiot. I encounter guys like that sometimes, when they’re harvesting tomato and taking overloaded trailers to the tomato pulp plant, racing too hard only to get to the plant and have 10 trucks to unload in front of them, all working for the same farm. The Himalayan really seems suited to the kind of riding you do, how far away from home is that?

Its a nature of that business Pete, try getting in the way of a truck hauling live animals to the market out West, they will drive you off the road. Yes @Grasshopper's Ride he almost tipped over imho

That guy's a lunatic driving like that on those roads!

Well, i survived the bedding in process... The new disc's rock.

Done @boboneleg

Pretty hot day to be working in the garage, funny thing is i bitch about working im my garage when its cold too. Not tellin what i did butt here are two clues Ok i;ll tell now, new Tusk™ brand disc's, the fronts oversized, and new pads. Sorry, i dint get the ghetto Gold one.... i went with cheap as chips black.

Once again the real battle was for last place imho

You'll have to ask him about the time he rode a few thousand miles across the US in order to shoot somebody he'd argued with on Cycle World! Hey......we've all done it!
