Couple sunny days of LA,Randys Donuts, Garage company, JDs, Calebs, a Commune Party featuring both bikes at a Ray Gordon photo show. cool party, free beer, Nice downtown LA night mission, up at 6am then the amazing David Mann Choppafest in ventura.

9/11/11

On one of my first Xt Camping trips last year, a whack load of us ended smack dab in what most vintage xt500 enthusiasts call "t heaven" Spences Bridge and the Slough. Many chose the bottle that night and many choose various greens and Veggies. In the evening with the moon full and fresh beers in hand, we ventured on a cross country hike that led all over train tracks and bridges, even towards the raging riverbed. It was here a dead fish washed up freshly dead from a heart attack, induced by my epileptic wheelies probably. We stared long and hard at the fish until Ashley Mitchel ran straight at it babbling under his breath and smiling maniacally! As soon as he rushed for the fish we freaked out scrambling backwards away from the water bed and this crazy fish weilding man, he turned to me and I took his picture the flash blinding him long enough for Beau and I to scramble for the safety of our base camp They can't kill us all with dead fish! -skinny

I bought this van about 7 years ago. I owned it for about 1 month. It blew up on me while driving in downtown Vancouver. It coasted to the curb with green blood marking the pavement in a nice line from time of leak to time of total failure. I was lucky enough to coast into a 2 hour parking spot, in Vancouver this is a hard thing to just have happen to you in a time of crisis. My van was filled with old shit of mine from my parents house. A huge printer that was broken, snowboards, clothing, just stuff. I left the van and went home to re group. I figured I should deal with this shit tonight, so I headed back out with a room mates truck to gather my belongings and make the next day not as shit. It's ten p.m. at this point and I have my room mates truck backed up to my van, and I am throwing all my shit into the back of his truck. I must of looked like a sketchy shit bag, because some shit head called the cops on me and they thought they had me up shit creek. I had put the shitty printer on a bench near my van, for a crack head. The pigs thought this was very odd how I would be junking a printer from the 70's that was broken...they were trying to run the serial numbers on the printer to see if it was stolen. Asking me about my van, who's truck, who's clothing, why the late night move. It fucking sucked! The printer was not stolen, I had to explain that it was just a shit printer and I'm tossing it on city property. The next morning I scraped my van for 400 bucks, but I made sure to leave that fucking printer back on that bench in the morning. TL

SWAP

I hate ebay, but when you need a part, you need a part. I do love swap meets, going to the wasp, getting up at the crack of shit. Getting a shit coffee and donut and talking with the oldest crusty bikers that have parts covered in grease and dirt and they have had these parts for fucking years. You spot a old springer or wheel and you think...yes it's mine! You ask about the price and it's fair but the old seller is grilling you about what it's going to go on. I love this shit, you have just spotted a dream part and the price is next to nothing as far as ebay pricing. You are touching your new item, inspecting it, your eyes combing over every weld and seam, clearing away the old crusty grease, it's a fucking steal. The old guys looks you over, and makes his decision. He will sell you his gem or he will tell you to get fucked and beat it! The fact that this old geezer has had this part for 20 years and that he is in no real rush to sell it, can make you want to blow your lid....I love the fact that he can hang onto his part for another 20 years and not be bothered. This is just one of the simple joys of going to a swap. The interaction between buyer and seller, old and young, it's fun. It put's you in your place, some times you get a screaming deal, sometime you don't get a part sold to you because the old guy thinks your a goof. The effort is what it's all about. You get up and hunt for the deals, you will prob find some. I wish we had more swaps this time of year. P&E is coming up in March, Monroe, Skadget. That Reddeer swap that went on last month looked good. Time to tear in your bike and open your wallet, April comes quick. SWAPMEET, STREET MEAT, TRIUMPH, HARLEY, LOG JAMMER, CLUCH LOG PULLER, WICKED PIZZA.

Pan dog.

This pan is really doing it for me! I threw on my long triumph front end a few days ago and had a good staring session. I was not love struck, my head tube on my wishbone frame is raked about 1 1/8 so my front end is long and lean, but my frame rails are sitting a bit high for me. Had the wide glide on that shit as a mock up. I know the wide glide is going to ride better then the trump front end but I'm a small dude and I want to make my bike fit me. Might go for some narrow trees for my wide glide tubes. Have 2 other trump front ends all most together, might try a shorter trump front end? Might rake the head head tube back to 30 deg or maby 28 deg and run my vl springer. Living in Canada, these are the hard ships I deal with. What front end to roll? No bombs, clean water, clean air, shit in Canada is as good as it gets. When my pan is done, it will be even better. TL

RACE THIS SUNDAY, SHIT IS GOING TO BE REAL, COME OUT AND SUPPORT/RACE!!!!

18 holy rollers

Holy shit this was a fucking huge ass roll. 5 left friday for a late dinner at the sasquach, followed by a crazy downpour all the way up east harrison to clear creek hotsprings. Met up with Turbo and his buddy with the the pistol grip 12g. Soaked it up real large in the tub. The lead 5 took it chill in the am, and made it to the planned bridge meetup 15 minutes after noon. "Lets wait a bit, have a beer."lil Ty, you hear that, sounds like a XT........Keddy and Trev first up the lake, fuck yeah. We now roll the Nahatlatch with 15 large. One flat and a broken pump slows the roll a bit. i took a nap, woke up did a quick tube change and we rollin again. Awesome terrain and surprising remote feeling, down into Boston bar. steak nuggets, gas and beer. we pick up a couple more staglers coming up the canyon. Our possee is like a kilometer long at this point up to the log cabin. We split up, some ride the old road into ashcroft and the rest enjoy pizza and beer. It is dark by the time we roll into ashcroft, and meet up with the rest of the gang at the pub. Big smiles and dirt faced men, " lets hit the slough, and light up the journey to T-Heaven. The old tunnel wasnt quite the same without boner getting naked but fireworks light up any trip. Sunday morning some rolled home back down the canyon and the posse heads to lil wat and onto bridge river, up to carpenter, through another tunnel and onto the high line towards pemberton past beau an samo's highline property and an easy run home down the sea to sky. We took our turns in the ditch this year, only one to punch themselves in the nose. We survived another enduro..................FM to T-Heaven. mitchi


 PS. High Noon Scramble october 28th, mandatory costumes......evil shall come the victor. Scraper T



Lets hit the dunes as much as possible in the next two weeks and pound in another epic course.
