    R/C car monkies

    You couldn't have bought a worse RC crawler. nitros are quickly getting surpassed by lipos and brushless systems. There are a bunch of great RTR (ready to run) cars out there: Traxxas Slash (very durable, parts are cheap and easy to find) Many racing groups have a stock slash class...

    BYU-NM State Women's Soccer/Cage Match

    The referees should have regained control of that game long before the hawt hair pulling happened. I would have red-carded any intentional "girl on girl" violence, after it was done of course. The ref's need some glasses and some better training.

    Rough trail riding 101

    I've ridden that many times. it's very technical for a normal XC'er but any intermediate DH or freerider should be able to pick a good line and make it down relatively easy. In high school I did it on a hardtail with a rockshocks judy, toe clips, and cantilever brakes. The pointers he...

    dirt jumps in Colo Springs

    there's some jumps around. The city dirt jumps are getting a little better (goose gossage skate park). Your best bet is to go there and ask other riders. I'll be there for a little while on saturday (say noon to 1pm) The valley was great.

    Places to check out while in Colorado

    Colorado springs is nice, city convenience and is much closer to the mountains than Denver. The city is conservative (opposite of Boulder, Den is middle of the road) House prices here are more reasonable too (I just bought my first home) Garden of the Gods, Pikes Peak, Royal Gorge, and the...

    Patent Infringement, who is at fault?

    Hmm. I see the point you're trying to make. I believe that the fault would fall under the responsibility of the designer. The manufacturing company does not know what they are building till it's all together. Generally, the company with the patent will sue the person/company with the...

    Closing day at keystone '08

    Yeah, It's so smooth I didn't even hear the tires land. The new step-up on Helter was absolutely amazing. I hope they continue to build more obstacles like that.

    Motorcycles... What do you think?

    Mike, at your size you'd look silly on a SV or any of the "Croth Rockets" (I know, I'm 6'3" too) I had an SV650 and I looked like a circus bear on the mini bike. My knees were well past the spot they were supposed to be on the tank Now I have a DRZ400SM and it's perfect for commuting...

    Colorado Springs Riding

    Colorado Springs is a great area. I'm building DJs in my back yard as we speak. There are plenty of DJ and DH spots around town, as well as some of the best shuttle runs in the country Pipeline Capitain Jacks (3 mile, easy access, smooth dh with whoops and berms), Jones Downhill (pedal...
