Thanks Tami! Completely undeserved. I am just a guy that likes to ride and tinker. I also just like to treat everyone the way I would like to be treated. Our world is too full of tough times and circumstances. It is just nice to have a great community like we have here and dirt biking in general to relieve the stresses of the real world.
I was thinking Walt was shorter than that...I guess everything is relative. Im amazed you guys were able to find him long enough to take those pictures!
Well, it ain't pretty, that's for sure. And it ain't easy, either. But, you know, nothing worthwhile comes easy, no? And, hell, if it was easy everybody'd be doing it.
Completely undeserved? Hah! I think not. You are single-handedly responsible for the unbridled joy that quite a few of us Cafe denizens experience on a regular basis. You're good at what you do, Walt. And we all benefit greatly from it. Thank you. Really! Most of Stony is open. One super-steep hill climb on the eastern side is closed still, and we rode by a "closed" sign on Trail 20. Looks like they're preparing to cut down all the burned trees in that area. Hope they don't ruin the character of the trail as it's a really fun section. Did you see the Husky Memorial when you rode it with Eric? Anyway, this is what it looked like before... This is what the same spot looks like now. The tree that it was attached to is gone, although the tree right behind it is still standing. We couldn't find the metal memorial marker anywhere. I'm hoping the friends that erected it came and got it after the fire...
Wow it's really cool to put faces with names from this really great forum. It's also really cool to see that members of CH get to meet each other and enjoy what we live for. Great post WC
Kuddos to you! Your tougher than I am. I had one and loved it but a pulled muscle in my right leg makes it painful to kick start anything. I whimped out and bought the four stroke version of the WB 165 with the e-leg.
I tell you what Russ that TXC310R of yours is an amazing bike and 2nd in line behind my 165 for F-yes bikes in my lineup. Thanks again for letting me thrash her a little.
