    I only have a few shots to add. That Billy Burger was far too small. :rofl

    The hole in DQ's tire was BIG. We never saw anything but it put a big hole in.

    DQ gave us a lesson on changing a tire and napping at the same time. Probably could have done it blind folded.

    We did an Eagle Lake levee ride today. The tone for the ride was set by the repaving of the levee. We did about 10+ miles of thick gravel when we were detoured off the levee. We finally got back to Hwy 61 then took Hwy 1 at Onward to Rolling Fork then over to Satartia and Hwy 3 back to Vicksburg. At Red Wood I decided to introduce my riding buddy to Whatley and Go Wall Rds since his cruiser was already dirty - he was a good sport. A little under 200 miles with maybe 20 miles of gravel - maybe 10 miles of fun gravel for street bikes.

    Yeah I was thinking the trading post was on the other side of 25, I should have stayed longer because our 9am depart time ended up being more like 10:30. dang Harley riders. i had one Harley, one Canondel Spyder and a Gold Wing fallowing me around today.

    we left Brandon and headed over to get the tag.

    talked them into doing Shafer rd. after that we stoped in Port Gipson and got gas and headed home. they did 212 miles and I did 350... my hand was not ready for that...

    had to stop on the way home to let it rest before i could make it home.

    I asked DQ if the road was muddy. He shrugged his shoulders and took off.....I followed. :wink:

    My big dumb butt and that GSA was far too heavy for that mud. I wish I had my TKC80 on the rear again. Thanks to Thunderhart and DQ for coming in the mess and helping me out. Sorry for the shaky video and the watermark. I'm looking for a good editing freeware is anyone knows of one. (I need it be able to handle MP4 video)

    DQ thanks for leading us around today and letting some of us new guys come along. Realized I still got a lot to learn blasting around with a big bike off road and also glad I finally got around to meeting some of you guys.





    Switch, did you have a passenger with you today? If so I saw you at the overlook.

    We had a good ride UJ, but you probably had a much more fulfilling day hanging out with the third grader.
