  • Wife tells me she's run in to the garage door

    We're in Lake City CO (end of June, all of July, who knows how long in to August), and the wife asks if we should get a 4 wheeler while we're here. Sure, I say, as long as we don't overpay (everything is 20% higher here, they have transportation costs, etc).

    I'm fishing with friends and the wife calls and says the garage door is messed up. I respond that I've hiked to an epic fishing hole on the San Juan and the garage door will still be broken when I get home, so she can wait. When I get home, there's no obvious damage, she says open the garage and I'll see what she's done...








    Its a lot more bike than I would have bought for myself (I was looking around town for used bikes, thinking I might buy one if the deal was right), it's a 450 and it's ridiculous. She wants me to tame it. FML.

    Oh, and I need to figure out what the little lever above the clutch does. It runs to the carb...

            I believe that is correct.. My brother had one and that is what I recalled as well.

            Awesome deal man!

            BTW, We'll be in Lake City from the 9th to the 16th (camping on the loop the Sunday through Friday). We will be hanging out with Jluv and his woman, who live there. We need to meet up! (PM Sent)

            I was just telling Lea last night how much I would love to have a dirtbike up there.

              Actually, I just googled and it's the hot start lever. I knew it had something to do with starting. It helps you kick start it when it's already been running. Basically the opposite of the choke.

                It's a hot start lever, come to find out after finding a manual online.

                I have to fly back to Austin for a bit (clients want to see my face), and I leave on the 8th :^( I'll hit you up though if I get back before the 16th. If you haven't done 4th of July here, you need to add it to next year's plans. It's an all day event that starts with the parade.

                  Awe dang, bad timing.

                  Yeah, we've done the 4th there a couple times. We usually stand right on the south side of the bridge next to Henson Creek RV park for the parade. We've been doing our annual trip up there for 7 or 8 years now and love it. Eventually we'd like to move up there permanently as well. It's part of the long term plan.

                          Pay no attention to that insurance envelope in the mail box. Probably just junk mail!

                            Dang, Lake City is about to be overrun by board members. Y'all, Jluv, and several others that are about to head up there. Maybe y'all could have a board party at Packers.
