for the next couple of weeks until they finish up.
our original trailhead at the end of the culdesac is off limits due to the gas well that's being drilled right smack dab at our trailhead.
the foreman says it's too dangerous to be in that area while they're working.(7 days a week until it's complete)

so the starting point can only be as high as the first road crossing.
that's not a whole lot of trail to give up for a short time.
but that's the best, most in your face way to start the day.

i figure by mid sept. they should be finished and it'll be back to normal.

and begining tommorrow.
whenever i'm not there riding, the barricade at the first jump will be installed, screwed down and lag bolted.
whoever rode last weekend left it open all week.
we can't afford to keep leaving it open, if ya'll want to keep those jumps ridable.
all it takes is just one motorcycle to get down in there and screw up years of work in just one twist of the throttle.

Nothing says wake the F!!! up like hucking 6 feet to angle and tossing down the gauntlet on the bulkhead 8 seconds into your 1st run of the day.

Pretty good situation to have when someone builds a gas well in the middle of your 1st section of trail and all it does is remove less than 1% of your run. :thumb:

Actually, the best wake up call of all is that new windmill trail. Starts out chill then slowly gets faster and harder. Apetizer, entree and dessert all on one plate.

can't wait to ride it again. When we rode it in the spring, Doug was having to play pathfinder for us and it was precaryous. Tire wide with nothing but raked away leaves. From what I hear it's way more fun now. By the time we got to the bottom me & Jeremy were ready to pack up for the day.

Nope, it's not affected. To get to it, you have to take a left at the fork at the top of the road where the pavement ends and keep going for a long ass way.

I'm finished with the lesson's for this phase, getting that 3rd degree was a bitch, and yes, filling up that pig is expensive, but when you have a high paying, rewarding job like I have, money is like Dorito's. Spend all you want, we'll make more. YEAH RIGHT!!!!

Actually, I'm waiting to get my bike.

So if I come to ride, are you going to have issues with me and kick me out or am I still in the "people who can ride nasty rocks" club?

I mean...sure I'm not very likeable...but if I can only ride based on social status? Plus...I'm a loyal customer....

I know you think you must be internet famous and all but i highly doubt anyone is gonna hassle you at the rock.

it's not a game, it's real downhilling.

oh wait.
you're talking about that over rated community college football team ?
are there even enough out on bond to have enough players on the field ?
i'll wager that "dr bob" is on a first name basis with more than a few bondsmen.

I just wanted an excuse to use the pirate smilie, I could care less about the game. But according to the news paper, there are some high profile idiots on this year's team.

Hopefully 6-8 weeks to check my girl out of methodone rehab:nopity:
You know how it is:brows:

And guess what?
While drinking my pain away in the super-roach-8 i watched a history channel show all about the importance of Oak Ridge in the cold war era nuclear projects.
Do you know how fricking contaminated the area is?:shocked:

Oak ridge is the primary radioactive and contaminated waste incineration\disposal fascility in the USA!

And MTbpaint 4 has seen radioactive trucks and government escorts At WINDROCK!!!

Sketchy to the max

The largest part of the waste that is here now, processed here or leaves here goes to Clive, UT or Hanford, WA to be buried. Some stays here in OR.

The trucks that MTbpaint4 has seen coming through Oliver Springs are transporting UF6 (Uranium Hexaflouride) which is a by product of the enrichment process. Thousands of these sat around for years in airtight vessels due to the nasty reaction when UF6 is combined with water or water vapor. These are now leaving the OR reservation daily headed for Hanford I think.
