    Pair of: Old Man Emu 892__ 96-02 4runner or Prado 90 series__ Rear coils

    I installed these coils about a year ago for one week so they have almost no time on the truck. Installed on a weekend and uninstalled the next weekend. Too much lift for me since my truck in just about an inch over stock. Normal scratches where they seat on the top and bottom to the coil bucket...

    Super Tenere Panniers. By Sampsonite.

    The lesson is that Goodwill ($3.99) is a better deal than St Vincent De Paul ($5.00) for side bags. Love it.

    Messing around in New Mexico on the tarmac via the Triumph.

    So, I'm trying to make the most of my time in New Mexico. I'll be here for a few more months, but since I only have a Triumph Bonneville with me I'm trying to hit up all the tarmac rides I can! So fair warning. Not a dirt adventure this time. Oh yah, I tend to get a little lazy and put more...

    Ride to Mexico, Desert Race Car, Ride home. A quick weekend of fun.

    A buddy of mine had a spare single seat 1600 racecar handy (we used to race a 2-1600 for years together) so I decided to hop on the Triumph and run down to Puerto Penasco, MX to race. The motorcycle ride was fun and uneventful, but the desert race was eventful and epic! Just about everything...

    Mountain biking El Camino Del Diablo.

    I've known about the route for a long time, but it wasn't until the idea of biking it came to mind that I really wanted to go and do it. It's sandy at times and a *****, but it's fun on a bike. Well worth doing in my opinion! The pics, video and words are up on my blog...

    10 days on the road. AZ to our favorite places in colorado.

Okay, that last part was a lie... Just day...

    Prescott to Phoenix. A pedal powered trip.

    So I was riding my bike thinking about how I was laid off last week and decided I needed some solitude, adventure and most importantly a reprieve from incessantly applying for jobs and "linking in." So I wondered if I could ride from Prescott to Phoenix on all dirt. I knew the route as I'd done...

    AC Clutch replacement on truck. 01 4runner

    So, after all the mud and water crossing a few weeks ago the AC Clutch is howling. Still working just fine, but the bearing is angry. I am going to attempt to replace just the clutch/rotor assembly as Toyota calls it. I do believe I'll need some sort of AC Clutch puller though. Since the shaft...
