Matches, to start a fire to make lunch! No matter what time of the year it is, and no matter what ya bring along for food, lunch in the bush just isnt complete without a fire!
I still love going fast, but when I do, i think a bike is the way to do er!
my brother had a 2 stroke Yamaha...I wanna say it was a YZ450. He of course had it tuned to run at elevation and that thing was just downright scary. We were up riding once and his boss wanted to ride it...went through a puddle, wheelie, flew off the bike and hit a rock and broke 3 ribs that day.
My dads Grizzly 660 would run at 65-70MPH if you could find open road enough to get it up to speed. It would also wheelie on its own in soft gravel if you weren't careful.
I like my Kodiak. Its light and easy to slide around corners more like a sport quad, but it'll go through just about anything. I've had it up to the handlebars in snow!
When you're young, you're not happy unless you're going mach 2 with your hair on fire (anyone remember that quote, and which movie it came from? ). As we age, we begin to appreciate the finer things. Like fire-side lunches in the woods...
Pete you have a damn good point about the price of quads! They arent cheap for the nice big decked out ones. They sure are handy though. My dad has a couple of 300 suzuki king quads, and they use them for all sorts of stuff on their farm.
This coming from a bunch of people who have DP Tuners in their trucks. And what is the sole purpose of a DP? Make the truck go faster.
I really should be writing a biography of Shakespeare right now, but writing about some gay British dude seems so much less interesting than being on FTE.
"When Shakespeare was born the Black Plague killed 1/7 people in his town."

What about fireside liaisons in the woods?
mach 2 with your hair on fire..yep, pretty much. Thats how I was when I was 16, and that wasn't that long ago, only a short decade.

Why lock the door???? It isn't the falling that hurts....It's the sudden stop at the end.

Not to sound like one of those "old people" talking about the ways of the world, but a time will come when you'll get over that need to go as fast as possible at all times.
Anyone know when that happens???? Just want to make sure I see it coming, so I can turn around and go 80 the other direction!!!

Piece of cake brother, Top Gun, Cris' favorite.... Easy to remember......
Jim, how has your kawasaki been for a quad? We got to test out a 750 brute for awhile and it seemed like a kickass quad!
It has been great Sheldon. It is the same physical size as the 700. It's automatic with electronic 4x4. There is a manual lever that you pull and it locks in all 4 wheels instead of limited slip. My daughter loves to drive it, and she's only 9!!
Afternoon everyone! Time to install my headlights!!!

Drunk girls are always good news. Even if they are the type to play mind games, the alcohol works its magic!

Sober...yes, run! Under the influence take Brents advice in reverse...do that, then run!

5 bucks?! Wow, we didnt have the hybrid deal but a true "hobby" as I call them. Told my bud Mitch Id give him 100 if he could eat the whole thing and not have any liquid for 30 minutes...
5 mins later he upchucked and spent 15 minutes under the faucet...
I knew they were hot when I smelt it and my nose felt like it was on fire...not to mention not washing hands and touching my eye...its like I maced myself!

But your fireside lunch idea sounds better, Sheldon!

Some of you may remember that pic of my buddy Jay on the powerwheels with the viking helmet on? Well, that day, he told me to try one. He knows I like spicy things. He DID NOT however tell me what it was...I was the butt of a terrible joke. This was early in the morning, and I wasnt feeling great anyways, so I ate it, all of it, at once. About 10-15 seconds later, I could hardly breathe, tears pouring out of my eyes, then puked, then puked somemore, drank a gallon of gatorade, then found a cooler with beer, drank a six pack, then sat in my truck for about 20 and wished I was dead....Absolutley horrible and mean....I got him back though next time we went out tubing, and had our tube wars... I sailed throught the air and kicked him good in aunt betty's nut butter.....Were even now...
