Fallen Timber

By Mike, on June 29th, 2007%

Went out to Fallen Timber last weekend. I like going on non-long weekends. There are too many shit heads that head out on the longs and trash the place. Stupid punk ass kids (and not so kids) that tear up the camp sites, chop down live trees, break glass, and don’t clean up after themselves. . . . → Read More: Fallen Timber

new sprockets

I finally got around to fixing my quad.

On May long I was climbing a hill and heard a clang and a bang from where the chain is… and I couldn’t go no more… I thought I had a rock stuck in the chain so I backed it up and all was working again.

Sept Long

By Mike, on September 5th, 2006%

Once again we loaded up the truck and (moved to Beverly….) went quading. This time we landed in Dutch Creek. I love the camping out there. It’s just awesome. The quading is a bit rocky and dusty though. Weather was perfect… still… some rain to keep the dust down would have been welcome.

It was so . . . → Read More: Sept Long

It’s been a pretty crazy week.

Work has me busy as hell. I put in an 11 hour day yesterday, and I’m just done now… (and done the work too) Good thing a neighbour is having a TGIF party… I will be the entertainment tonight. glug, glug, glug… either that, or I’ll pass out halfway thru the . . . → Read More: Finally, a spare moment…

Another busy weekend

By Mike, on May 8th, 2006%

May long is so close I can almost touch it. I think I might even have the trailer ready!
The camper and trailer are now permanently welded together. Well, permanent in as much as a grinder could cut thru the welds… but they are one right now. I’m trying to think of a name for it… Camprailer? . . . → Read More: Another busy weekend

And another thing…

…about the quad trip to McLean Creek on Saturday. Wife got to ride her own quad for the first time, and I broke my glasses. Notice the lack of left arm.

On a quad related note, I did manage to finish wiring up Wife’s winch. Added a final coat of paint, and it’s good to go! It’s . . . → Read More: And another thing…

Weekend Long Gone

By Mike, on April 18th, 2006%

Another great weekend. I’ve been really lucky lately and had a string of really good weekends.

Let’s see… Friday, I puttered in the garage and worked on the mounting plate for Rhonda’s quad. Cut some metal, drilled some holes, did a test fitting. I then mangled the stupid control paddle that came with the winch. I pulled . . . → Read More: Weekend Long Gone

But before I begin

Looking for pictures of my renos and such I came across this pic again. I took this at Dutch Creek up at Crowsnest Pass area. Love it. We’re at a fire lookout on the top of a mountain. You can see the groups quads in the center of the picture.

Scary as hell getting up there, . . . → Read More: But before I begin
