if you straddle the crack you get less body damage.. Or you can go over to the left by the tree

its really impressive, makes most of the central cal trails look like a ride to the park. We have rocks and granite but you have to go quite a ways north or south to find anything close to that scale. At least I dont know of any around here.

Come by and get that carpet today if your out. I'm working on the 4 runner and will be home most of the day. Give me a call when you are coming by.

any new style MTR's? We should start a thread asking if people who have them like them and how they work compared to the old ones. I hear people say they work great and people say they don't.  We need specifics, snow off road, snow on road, ice, wet rocks, dry rocks, dirt, mud, etc. I did hear they work good in the rocks, at least when its dry. Sometimes you just have to see for yourself, people who have stuff sometimes don't want to admit it doesn't work or they don't like it because it don't work for one thing and they bash it for everything.
