    A Thought On Protective Gear from the Trenches

    Wow! Glad to hear you're on the mend and not in worse shape. Glad you had the proper protection on. I'd definitely think about a Leatt - a bit pricey and odd when you first wear them - but I think it's worth it (and I was happy I had one when I took a header off my 450 cc ATV pinned in...

    Good Wheel Builder in So. King County?

    I'll add another Scott recommendation. We were always very happy with the wheels he built for us (not to mention he's fun to bull**** with too :D )

    Who freakin' knew?

    That's just not right. That means that you still think the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor don't you? :) Best x-mas gift we ever got my step-dad was a custom sweatshirt that only said "COLLEGE" on it :biggrin:

    Tragic....

    Oh my gosh...how terrible. My thoughts are with his family. And I'll echo others...take care of yourself out there Manimal. It really sucks that those who are out there protecting us fall victim to this type of stuff :(

    Something I've noticed about women...

    AMEN!!!! I looove pink stuff, flowery stuff, etc (as long as it does it's job though...will not sacrifice fashion for function). I love it because it's such a direct contrast to "I'm going to go out and play in the mud and dirt". I don't bag on you for not liking pink stuff, don't bag on me...

    Anyone with some piercing knowledge?

    When I had my toungue piercing I had it out for about 45 mins for a dentist appointment....had started to close up and had the hell out of it to get it back thru. I would go to a shop and get it put back in. After that, if it ever has to come out, put on of those flat clear plastics...

    Any non surfers wear rash guard?

    Being one of very fair skin I think it's actually pretty smart to wear something to prevent yourself from getting burned. Even with sunblock 50 on I can still get burned some days. Do what you gotta do....better than peeling skin or skin cancer. I don't currently have a shirt like that...

    I got Sanchez's DNA results back!

    If I had a mutt I would probably shell out the money for the test also. I like dogs and think the different charactertics that breed exhibit are interesting. Not strictly just the "I'm a herder, I'm a sight hound, I'm a scent hound" but all the other odd quirks that can be typical of a...

    UPS man....Where Art Thou??

    LOL!!! Sounds about as ferocious as our whippets. Only one of ours will bark at strangers...and that's in excitement after the person has entered the house :bonk: I think our only hope would be Loosie jumpin at someone enough to knock them off balance so they trip over the fierce wiggly...

    Letters to serial killers

    The Manson one was very disturbing. But glad to know the guy is where he needs to be...and that is no where near the general public!!!

    Tire Balls?

    You put them in the tire, inflate them, then mount the tire. Each ball has a valve similar to what you'd find on a basketball. You partially inflate them and put them in with the valves all facing in a direction you can still access them, then inflate them to the desired psi. At the...

    Tire Balls?

    If the mtn bike ball work like the ATV balls..... You don't inflate them to full pressue until they are in the tire. You partially inflate them, put them in, and then inflate them all to the desired pressure. Everything fits in there nice and snug after they're installed. But if balls go...

    Tire Balls?

    You might want to consider cutting out all the word abbreviations to make things easier to read. I few extra key strokes go a long way :) Anyway...one of the things about the tireballs is that that need to move around a bit to keep the friction down and to reposition themselves if one goes...

    Tire Balls?

    Yea, that's where the beauty of beadlocks help us :) And yea, I remember watching Jason try to get some DH tires one....eek! I can't imagine they haven't taken some of that stuff into consideration figured out some installation tricks. (Either that or they have a huge pile of busted rims...

    Tire Balls?

    I use the ATV tire balls and yes, they can be time consuming to change...but you prevents a DNF so it worth it. Also once you get the hang of getting the balls in there and inflating them it's really not that bad (just a bit messy :) ) I know at least in the ATV tires you can be flat a few...
