At least y'all have good barbecue.

The balance of bbq to riding isn’t even close.
No one has massive dookie stoppage because they’ve had too many good turns in pow.

I can bring meat to you, can you bring the slopes to me?

I appreciate you being nice and all.
But yes, the best meat you can eat is here, I’d rather have a couple feet of fresh thank you.

As an aside, I was born in the foothills of Tahoe. Learned to ski at 3. Discovered snowboarding when it was invented. Was a sponsored rider for a few years. In early October I dream of snow falling. Every. Year.

So………. this ski thing you do is just something to kill time until your more important hobby is in season?

Got a chance to fish a ‘Trophy’ stream today with a good friend - I’ve not fished in a while so was a bit rusty (missed a couple of nice ones) but got several in the net for a photo op!
BTW……. It was 73 in north GA today!

About time we got some more fish in this tech thread! Always love the pics of the mountains too.

Time to wash off the Fluid Film for the season.


Some scenery, because people like that stuff.

Why do you wash off the fluid film? I've always left mine on.

No real reason, I just like to clean off all the gunk that builds up over the winter, and it helps to keep things a little cleaner when I’m underneath working on it.


There may have been more paint that flaked off from the bottom, I need to crawl under and take inventory of stuff.

Warning , lack of cruiser tech follows.





Time to play catch up before summer dry fly season gets here, going on another backcountry adventure with an old Army buddy this year.

Did you swap out the early air cleaner for a 75-80 2F air cleaner? Looks different.

Otherwise, life looks good up there amigo.

Yup, came from a non-US spec 43 if I remember right. Solved height problems with the non-US carb also.



Good eye.

Those will catch fish, for sure where I'm going.
