Excellent summation, Graham, and all good advice posted so far. Are you using a featherred paddle? I suspect not, but if so, people often do not keep the "offside" paddle blade perpendicular to the boat direction for the entire stroke, so it can be noticeably less efficient than the onside...

Now he's got to load his bike in his van the way the rest of us vanners do :bike_rider:: YouTube- how to park your motor cross motor bike

Where's that popcorn eating smilie? (ok, ok, I mean Mint Milano eating, Pepsi drinking, fat, middleaged, smilie)

Ha! How'd I miss this? Thats awesome Aaron. Was the water crossing really rocky or something? How did it shake the exhaust loose? I'm curious about your front recovery point set up; do you have a link to any info on it? I can imagine what you must have done, I'd just like to see pics or...

Too bad you didn't have your river kayak on top, you could have paddled everybody to shore! You need to be better prepared next time.:sombrero:

Dancers are still short, I just tipped a short one the other night! And I hear ya. A few years back I paddled the Thompson in BC with the western contingent of the Canadian Slalom team and some American slalom boaters from Wa., and my buddy Sal who is himself Team Malasia:) It was great...

I'm know you know how fortunate you are that your daughter prefers that method of entertainment.:ylsmoke: That looks like the Skookemchuck wave. We like to rent books on tape that somehow tie into our destination or the general region. Sometimes we can't pull it off, but its rewarding when...

Sweet! It's a seems like a great idea. My 72 yr old mother can't get into my van without a step of some sort. And I think the dude you got speaking is destined for stardom!

My favorite GF was the Klunker. Sexy as hell.

I know exactly what you are talking about. I used to take my mom's '68 Cutlas wagon on fs roads and back into the woods to the moto cross tracks when I was 15 yrs old. The only problem I really had was that the headlights would pop out after you got the car airborne. And I'm not knocking you...

I agree with the no respect comment, but not the good value comment. It's shame when I see people on a brand new bike that is temporary. A complete waste of time and money. Like I said, if you make a good buy used, you can learn, evolve, and shop while riding and you can sell for what you...

My bro in law videoed me with his new phone. We can't seem to rotate it right side up. I know this is going to turn into an excercise in tech humiliation when you all start asking me the basics of what I have and what we used and i reply with...:Wow1: Should I just forget about it? I mean the...

Ha! Then the really rad Corsica came along and the white water world changed forever! White water in an Otter?!! Oh dear. Thats like a '75 Ford LTD wagon for an Expo rig.:) I guess I should atleast try to add value to my post, so let me agree with all the above posters; Take Lessons. Buy a...

Figures it would be another van guy that would show some love.:ylsmoke: Thanks, TM.

Granted I ride enduro...but maybe the point is the same. After about 5-6 hrs in the saddle I sometimes ask myself outloud "How's your judgement, T.Low? Are you still quick and alert, or is your mind beginning to write checks your body and reflexes can't cash?". Never hesitate to pull over and...

Eventually, the oil light goes on...:( http://s232.photobucket.com/albums/ee258/wannahuckmastinky/Gas%20Gas/?action=view&current=MVI_2071.mp4

Monty Python Sorry. As people began giving good recomendations you said no to each one, it prompted a too vague reference to a Monty Pyhton skit from me:sombrero:: YouTube- The Cheese Shop sketch, Monty Python

"This is a cheese shop, isn't it?". :)

Make sure you ask if it's four wheel drive or not (if thats in fact part of your critieria) . A lot of Cali, Az, and Texas Suburbans aren't, plus he says it has a posi, different size wheels in the front and rear, but does not specify 4x4 anywhere. I have a feeling it's 2wd.
