May all your winds be toward your ass and not from it...

Y'all have a cabin, right?


Here's what happens when it's on your face.... 🤬

Sounds like I'm getting 40 gusting to 50 on the nose again. We're wheels up and east of Rapid City. I'm a little peeved at the weather right now....
last 3.5 hours rain at times heavy - windy AF from Badlands on. Horrible at making time until I was able to draft a semi at a safe distance and get pulled - that was after Mitchel and the universe countered my draft success with rain.

Was great time! - too short, would get more time off secured for longer.
 
Here are some photos of the trips - I did have one long video from all that Issac too, but paired it down to two because at first it grabs your attention "Video of Black Hills???", but after watching it for a while, hands it right back.

Most of these are from Saturday - hit two trails - first one had an obstacle right away then was just a trail with occasional spice. The second trail had two steep inclines and one steep decline.

Got a rash from that.

Sunday - didn't wheel - Issac had never been to Badlands and wanted to hike and see it. So that was the plan (it was his birthday recently and this trip was my gift to him- hence teaching him to drive stick etc)

Badlands photo. (and lots of people took photos of Yellr)

That is Issac way at the top. Notice my angle - had hiked a few and time was getting late, so let him quickly scamper.

The yellow is from sea creatures back when this was under an ocean.

Got another passport stamp at a National Park in Yellr. Several to go.

Koozie alert!
 
I was wondering if you had yours engaged over that

I'm prone to kicking at least the rear on pretty early.

I bonked that tree at the top though because it didn't want to turn with the front axle locked. I probably would've been fine had I started my turn sooner. But I was scrambling a bit to try and get out of your way and you onto the flat, but my plan backfired.
