Indeed. These last lines were some of my favorites from the series pilot, it helps get me through some days/weeks/years and keeps things in perspective. "Well, were still flying", Thats not much","Its enough".

RTWPaul and a couple other guys just did an around the country trip of the US on Honda CT 110 and CT 90s. The little bikes that could. This is PilotParkers version, hes the last one on the road https://www.advrider.com/f/threads/48-states-%E2%80%9Con-that-thing-%E2%80%9D.1599747/ Doesnt take...

Here, let me help enable you https://www.advrider.com/f/threads/hacks-related-cl-ebay-other-finds-of-interest-not-flea-market-no-inmate-ads-allowed.492526/page-1182 Theres sidecar rigs from all over the country posted there, every imaginable make and type.

Its actually last year Shovel, but I think some Evos were starting to be sold, with a handful of leftover Shovels sold in the 85 model year, they may have been a police order. I bought my knuckle in about 1980 for $1200 as a basket case chopper with a worn out motor. I bought used parts to...

Im wanting to try some of the state BDR rides, at least parts of them (Backroad Discovery Route, dirt roads across the state). Az, NM, and Wy sound interesting. Some sections can be a little sporty, some arent too bad for a bigger bike. Ive been watching some ride reports on ADV Rider and...

I havent seen any small, light ready to go fold-out campers on small motorcycle trailers, but they may exist. Weight of bikes and sidecar vary quite a lot. Gold wings are more in the land yacht class then my H-D is (1984 FXSB, 612 lbs curb weight), they are even more than the full dresser H-Ds...

Im dealing with two households of stuff, both parents worth. The "I want to keep this" pile is quickly diminishing. Things that I thought I at least wanted to go to people I knew would appreciate them are getting shifted to the goodwill pile. I dont have time and energy for all this. My own...

Yeah, well, I havent been there yet!

In normal home life she spends time under the porch when it warmer out, if thats not cool enough, she will come inside and hang out in the AC, but thats up into the 90s before she really seems to care much. I spray the cabin or bath house porch and board sidewalk down with the hose also, which...

Ive had similar platforms in 2 Suburbans besides the 4runner, its worked out very well for my use with large dogs over the past 20 years. The 4runner is the most refined version so far. I dont recall if I mentioned it in the previous post or link, but making a removable support for the front...

Theres a drop of about 1 1/2" from the front section to the rear. I lay an old school heavy quilted packing blanket at the junction to even it out, tapering off towards the rear, otherwise its pretty flat. My longer term plan is to remove the trim piece at that junction and the middle seats and...

Here are a few basic pictures, I have more posted online somewhere I can locate and link, or I can post some more here if youd like to see more detail. If you want to build a similar one I may have some pics that could help in that regard...

One aspect of the training collar I really like and used frequently when out in the woods is the beeper. Some use it as a warning, I use it as an attention getter so if i cant see the dog every moment and want to know where she is or bring her in, I dont have to be making noise calling or...

Id suggest looking into the rattlesnake aversion training thats available from a number of sources. I know several people that have done it and they were pleased with the results. I just did a quick search, the one I looked at showed it cost $120 for a new dog. Refreshers were less. Thats WAY...

I do in fact know someone that was bit by a rattlesnake, it nearly killed him, he was able to get help and get to a hospital fairly soon, and he was pretty messed up for quite a long time. Ive not been bit but had many close calls. Ive had 2 at different times under my porch steps I heard when...

I think theres been good advice so far. I agree its smart to wear blaze orange when out during hunting season, your dog as well. It varies by area as to how crazy it can get, but not a bad idea anywhere theres seasons open. Im not against hunting in saying how crazy it can get. I hunt now and...

The biggest difficulty with these type of discussions is when seemingly intelligent, normal people start feeling like others have to believe the same way they do, or are unreasonable, paranoid, irresponsible, want to control others, whatever, (was I able to include pretty much everyone?) if they...

Agree, Im early 60s and feel like Ive got another couple dog lives in me at least, depending on the dogs. Im very much a dog person, its difficult to think of not having one. I expect Ill have one as long as I can realistically take care of one or whoever is taking care of me at some point can...

I saw videos of Moab a day or two ago that looked like it was a bit sporty for a while. Been several problems in Flagstaff and other places also. Pretty crazy rains after several years of drought.

Speaking of being geezerly and having a dog....my dog is also getting geezerly and now has trouble jumping up in the 4runner. I can pick her up but its really hard on my back, she being about 75 lbs. I stumbled upon a folding step set made form this purpose. Its a bit pricey, but looking at...
