Spent some time with the boy yesterday, showing him the finer points of "If you hear/feel something rattling, don't let it go for months without telling your Dad!"
Fixed front brake and did an oilchange, and bolted the footpeg assembly back on, lol.

Took Big Red for a ride a couple weeks ago, West and North of Regina. Dumb choice when alone to try go up a washed out road up the QuAppelle Valley. Wrestled the bike for an hour after dropping it and breaking brake lever. Limped home, tail between legs, a little bit wiser.

File comment: And, here we are a few hours and one brake lever later after wrestling it down the hill.

Good to see people running the older thumpers! The worst is when the rutted/washed out road is over grown with weeds and grass.

This one was bad enough. Overgrown i might still be there, and maybe STARS to get me out.

Enjoyed the QuAppelle Valley photos. The "Who Calls" Valley has and will always be a special place for me. It is vast and long and always fascinates me.
I have grown up around it and always wanted a house looking down on it. Maybe some day?

They'll be changing that - unless you have another bike anyway. I seem to recall that you do, so it shouldn't be an issue for you.
