last min trail run in onf @ alpha

Postby turnmeover on Sat Nov 15, 2008 8:44 pm

I needed a fix. So I went to alpha w/ Chip.

well after a uneventfull day we decided to take some trails that I have never been down. Well we found some new hills(new to me) and they were slicker then owl snot and Even w/ skinny I could not make it over the top on the first one nor could I even get up the 2nd one. Well after many attempts I gave up . Chip decided to give it a try on the 2nd hill and he had no luck . on the first one he made it over the top . Well being chip drives a HEEP I could not be out done so I comenced to 2nd gear and 4000 rpm . well when I cleared the hump at the top I got 1 foot of air on the fronts and landed prety hard. The part that sucks is that I didnt make the top and I turned the splines on my front slip into a barber shop pole. and here I am building a new shaft .
