Yep. Still hate it. Big pain in the butt to remove. And I'm still looking for a replacement. Translation: I'm not terribly motivated to do what would be required in order to transfer ownship.

translation, let's get us a tube bender and some toob!
 
haha, damn. if you're not looking to get any (or very much) money out of it, let me know when you get a replacement, and I'll be glad to take it off of your hands!
 
looks like we had a pretty good turn out for the weekend!

Sorry I didn't get to meet up with everyone on Saturday, but life called...

So after taking the most fawked up timed test of my life, I picked up my girlfriend, and my good friends girlfriend, and headed down to Hollister...

3.5 hours and a stop at Quiznos later, I was parked next to 'One Hell of a Fire!'

woke up the next morning, and eventually decided that we ought to go wheeling...

After dealing with some drive line issues,
headed over to the obstacle course, and I wanted to run some rocks...

we met up with a few other people, and headed up 'Rabit Road' - a Blue Square trail, with a tight turn that required backing up...

at some point we thought it would be a good idea to head to the top of Hollister, where there is no shade, and it was quite sunburney...

so, up the hill we drove, and dodged some motor cyclers on some competiton course...
