Newbie, bicoastal traveler. I actually joined a couple years ago;but never filled out profile and i don't remember posting anything. So when i went for a bicycle ride and returned; i found i could not log back in.
Now that i am a ASV polygamist, 89AWD,91EXT; i thought i might try it again. I will try to post something every now and again, and make some friends so hopefully i don't get dropped. Especially if i go for another ride this spring.... [-o<

Re: New old member;lets try this again
Thanks guys, good to be back among friends. I did take a few pics. Usually i would get about a half mile down the road from something exiting and say to myself man that was a picture post card moment; then call myself names for forgetting to take pictures. ](*,)

Doyoulikeithere, the legs are remarkably improved over when i left. I was on crutches to walk when i left by the time i returned i had cut up one of the crutches to make a trailer hitch to pull my gear in to get some weight off the overloaded bicycle.

I was putting off remodeling the AWD van but now Jezebel has been disappointing me a bit lately. Probably my fault for ignoring her so much unless i need her for something. She went from an average of 21mpg towing my buddies 63 Bonneville cross country; to just over 18mpg drag'n my trailer, trike, and canoe. Of course the unusual crap i had in the trailer prevented me from carrying the canoe on the trailer as i normally would so i will probably give her another chance.
if she cannot do better than that i may as well use the AWD at 16mpg.
OOps don't know how the pic showed up twice.
