    Agree. Plus that is not the side of the law we typically would expect to see them on!

    Hello All

    I attended the BYOB Ralley last year when it was held in PA. About 150+ like minded off road riders of limted mental capacity and an irrevernt approach to life attended. I seemed to fit right in as would many of us

    Next year this rotating ralley will be the last weekend in June and be held at the Hatfield/McCoy trail. Many take big bikes but some like me trailerd smaller bikes.

    I will try to attend again. The below thread picks up where many of the key details follow

    I've been to both BYOB and Hatfield/McCoy, just not together. There are some gnarly trails up and down the mountains there. Trials tire on the back and steering dampener on the front would be advised, based on my experience.

    Consistent deer kill ever year, 6 to 10 or better.
    80 acres, secluded.
    2500 per month, 3 month lease, deposit of 2500 starting 10/01/15 to 01/01/2016.

    I think he is?

    The helicopter ride was so expensive that we decided to just cut his left arm off instead of paying for the surgery to have it fixed. [emoji1]



    Scott, I want one of those for my back yard. Anyone have a cheap bike for sale?

    Todd has an XR80 that would make a great backyard swing.

    I am sonicating. I think I found the problem with my Sherpa - the rings are stuck in the piston. Hopefully the sonicator can blast them out so i can at least recover the piston.

    edit - my lower ring is loose! yay!,

    Nope. All the rings are out and the piston is in good shape.
