    Is Gooseberry (Hurricane UT) a crazy tough trail?

    Dude.. Gooseberry is not crazy tough, but it is a tricky trail ...... If you ever ridden on slickrock at Moab.. then you know what I mean, but a little, or a lot more technical..... Pick you lines carefully, and if not comfortable walk the section, there are plenty of miles to ride, and...

    Columbus tent, more questions

    The two rubber bands should have a clip. Use the clip to form an "X". This in turn helps pull the fabric in as you close the tent.... You still want to make sure the fabric is not being pinched as you close the tent, but that's just minimal work to be done.... I place my pillows (aftermarket)...

    Beautiful rig.... What type of inflatable are those in some of your pictures? How do they handle on the open seas? Is that Neon Canyon on one of your pictures? Yeah the one with the hole at top of the dome? What an adventure......!!! Thanks for sharing it with us all.

    Which Subaru is best off-road?

    I think only the wrx sti has the 50/50 awd. The rest have some variation of more power to the front wheels... I read it here... http://www.cnet.com/news/not-every-subaru-all-wheel-drive-system-is-created-equal/

    RMP&O's v8 80-series

    I can vouch for this.... Once loaded up... The "progressive" part of the spring comes alive... It really handles the extra weight like nobody's business, butta smooth and the best part is that no squatting is noticeable... At least not on my rig.....

    For me it was not the muck that messed up the bike components, but the stuff that is put on these roads to deal with ice during the winter. By the time I got back home ('bout a month later) the chain was rusty and looked like a 50 year old worn piece of metal, so were the shifter cables.. In...

    awesome thread. I got lucky a couple of years back. The wave is an amazing geological feature... It took three times for us to hit it big. I did not read the whole thread, but Cobra arch is also a must see in this area... Cheers, Frank.

    Aluminum or wood for drawers.

    I build the frame out of mild steel 1"Wide * ¹/₈"thick. The drawers were built from ³/₁₆" marine aluminum... Painted white on the inside, lined with thin clear drawer mat from Ikea. These are quiet. If I was to do it again I would do the frame out of aluminum too and the drawers from ¹/₈"...
