    I often find myself looking around at the countryside and if I don't break that habit, I'll break something else!!
    Yep, been there, done that. I didn't break anything but I sure was bruised up quite a bit. Happened in 1993 and I haven't forgot the lesson yet. I had to avoid some oncoming traffic and was forced to make a right hand turn right into the side of a car that was also making a right hand turn. Not a pretty sight.

      Brakes work pretty good?


      Reminds me of an overlook in Page Utah.
      I must have been nuts climbing around a few cliff edges for photographs.

Best explorer vehicle ever. Youtube has some pretty trick video of Smage on the 4tricks, check him out for great entertainment.
            I've seen a few bikes like your Scorpa and they really intrigue me. Would love to ride something like that.

              All your Moab photos are wonderful, but they're only playing card sized.
              You really need to work on your online skills.

                      Name calling? Bill paid you a complement by calling your pictures "Playing Card" size. Postage stamp is more like. As I remember you use some sort of portable device and I have no advice as to how you can post larger pictures. As interesting as you photos are, they are almost non existent. I posted pictures like yours for about a year(but larger) till I figured out how to do it right. There are a ways to do it right, but using your small pic isn't one of them......

                        yea somebody needs to let the small picture thing go. Its really pompus. Some of us are bike people with limited computer skills and we are just fine with that. Your small picture is fine. My finger was not stressed in the least to click on it.

                          No problem here, just chill and give me a year to figure techno weenie skill. I rather be riding or wrenching.Hopefully by the time i get to 5000 posts like you charlie i figure it out or maybe by then you will be so old and wearing magnifying glasses the pics will look larger.
