Listen.
It's been two and a half weeks. And I think I could benefit from a
ride.
How long has it been since you fixed yourself up with a nice ride?
How can you fix that?
HTH.

I've maybe got 6 hours total on the KTM this year. Maybe 20-30 on the
trials bike. If it wasn't for the KLR, I'd probably have to consider
myself a former rider.

It would help your hour total on the KTM if you'd take it out of the back of
the effin truck now and again......glad to help!
Rode the CR250 and new Quad a bit on Sunday. Still need to clean the
powervalve on the neglected KDX. The boys have designs on a Durhamtown trip
sometime in the next 4-6 weeks.

the way I see it God gives us 168 hrs/week
I spend ~50-60 hours working
40-50 sleeping the rest is goof off time, chores
& charity work... when the chores creep
in too much on the goof off time, I trade sleep
for coffee and up the goof off ratio...
the biggest gain for personal time is turning
off the TV, I did that around the birth of my
teenager and have never looked back...
I laugh at the folks who complain about not
having any time yet know all the "shows"..
some how I average a short ride per week
usually just a perimeter check, but still fun...
the way I see it if I fall to far out of balance
I become a bitter grouch hermit and generally
not much fun to be around... my giggle &
grin ratio has improved because used to take
a tractor, truck or walk, now I hop on a bike.

turn off the TV turn on the fuel petcock.

I rode trail at TrainRobbers on Sunday, a week ago. Brock Creek is
scheduled for this coming Saturday.
The day before yesterday, I helped a six year old (Sabrina) and a
three year old (Trinity) enjoy their CRF 50s; and rode Deb's TTR 125 a
bit in the process.
Keith,
Do yourself a favor and send your KDX suspension to MXTuner (or WER,
or Fredette), to have it freshened and customized for you; hopefully
resulting in a balanced and predictably handling bike for you.
Everything you need is right there in the KDX, but it is all out of
wack.
The first ride after you do it, you will want to kick yourself for
not spending the money sooner. It really is the best money that you
can spend on a bike.
Good Riding!
Jim
