    And my experience with sierras and their wax dipped frame vs ecoat paint, wheel bearing failures x3 and a few other significant corrosion issues were less that optimal. Perhaps they improved since my 2007 but i wont go back as long as they wax dip. My 2019 ram has been good...enough...@ 100k...

    Things that make you frown :(

    I remember a fishing trip where I did everything I could to avoid the world so I could watch a stanley cup game 7 I had recorded. 1 mile from my house I saw the winner on the front page of a half rolled sunday paper on a neighbor's driveway wrapped in a translucent yellow bag laying just the...

    Kia is just going to continue to blow you off. interior door panel has to come off, no other way to access for repair and figuring it out. Probably have to remove a speaker so you can get into the door cavity along that edge. There will be videos on how to get the panel off for your vehicle...

    Deer Park Trail Directory

    Understood and of course thanks for what you do. I assume you can't just have anyone have admin access to certain trailforks locations. I'll set Rouge aside, not my thing to argue given its current official "designation". The blanket changes to park conditions is an overall negative I feel...

    Deer Park Trail Directory

    Perhaps there can be a day when someone takes the keys away from someone who stepped away. Same for allamuchy north. those blanket condition changes that happen (separately) wipe any visiblity of reports I might be able to see that tell me where down trees are that folks not affiliated with...

    It's 2025 Is an Emtb in your near future?

    Fitness does exist with Ebikes. I think I saw you commenting that folks were saying it was equal to regular bikes. I don't know that i got that vibe and I certainly don't suggest that. I do find that it provides fitness, which can be significant (relatively speaking) but my ebike experience...

    It's 2025 Is an Emtb in your near future?

    I respectfully disagree. If anything I have found that in situations I might have normally "spun" a tire a little in something soft or loose on my analog bike I don't do so on the ebike as I keep better continual momentum. This is my actual direct experience as a rider of both and that is not...

    JORBA Chainsaw Safety Training 10/26 & 27

    I took the Jorba training a few years ago. I searched and watched various video's after. This one in particular helped me adapt how i deal with avoiding bind on the numerous situations with top bind which is a lot of what I clear. Also helps me keep out of the dirt by keeping a mindset of...

    It's 2025 Is an Emtb in your near future?

    Yup....to each his own should be the thing. Its the same in many sports self proclaimed purists need to comment against the sport. Fishing has fly fishing vs other gear and opposing factions on flyfishing itself (spey / other) Hunting had Compound vs recurve...now crossbow vs all. Biking had...
