I wanted to ride so much today, but DAMN it's cold! I settled on starting the bike and letting it run a bit to charge up the battery. I am crossing my fingers and hoping to get at least an hour out tomorrow.

Ok, at least I got out today....I jumped on the ADV Rider MD Tag game. Anyone who wants, I put the new tag at Four Locks to keep it west a little longer.

nice tag. I was at greenridge riding the atvs sunday and it was cold but alot of fun. We were the only ones there riding on the trail except for two not very bright guys in completly stock honda ridgelines. If you were at the DAMN reunion ride last year and herd about or saw the truck that almost went over the side of the trail and had to be winched out well same thing happened to the guys in the ridglines. Good thing we were there or they were going to lose the truck over the side. 401Dan and i had to hook up my towstrap around a tree then to the trailer hitch on my kingquad then another towstap to the other ridgeline.Then we hooked my atv winch to the other end of the stap after it went through the guys tow hook on his truck i started pulling while he spun his tires and we got him back up on the trail.They were very happy to get out of there. I just don't understand some people.

I always wonder what the hell people are thinking when they take a nice SUV down the rougher part of the ORV. That seems like a lot of wear and tear on a nice car you drive to work. I've seen people there w/ Mercedes, nice new suburbans...
I don't know, maybe the people are thinking "oh crap, I can't turn around. I guess I'll keep going..."
