    Almost biffed it on the LTR450 few days ago riding a 3rd gear wheelie. Ruts in the field got me humpty dumpty on the back wheels. Was wearing some thick gloves and when she slammed down i was almost going over the bars. Only thing saved me was slamming my knee into the key LOL.

    Note to self wear proper gloves next time

    Looks nice! Grouting hurt worse than laying the tiles for me. I did my livingroom with a dark grout, around 600 sq ft. I was so sick of buckets and sponge wringing at the end that the bedrooms got carpet and the kitchen vinyl flooring.

    Ceiling is Almost 11’ and doors are 8’ solid core. One of the things I love about this place. It had drop tile ceiling when we moved in.

    @singlescrewshaker @Ezrider_48501 has a you tube channel and just did a video of putting a cutoff on an old Pete and stretched the frame to put a pusher on too. Didn’t seem to take him to long?

    I actually meet this cat. Hell of a nice guy.

    You do good work Tug!
    I enjoy watching his videos. He knows his stuff!

    He's only 2.5 hours south of me. If I ever get down that way I wanna meet up with him.

    It sure is.. What do you use to dig at it. Those roots can be a bear to chop through. I spend an hour or so every month with a regular wood handle spade shovel before the humidity gets me to mad & I call it quits. Never make much progress. Need to buy one of those cutting spades where I can sharpen the blade, it has a metal handle, & weighs about 15-20lbs..

    Also thought about renting a mini excavator & just going to town on it.. LoL

    I used to hare scramble a 450R in the 30+ class. real bony track, bowling ball sized fieldstones all over. in the pouring rain both front wheels caught rocks at same time and after 2 hrs of racing my hands were mush, the both shot right forward. I was on the hood with my throttle pinned by my thigh right into a tree. One of my worst bruises ever and a thumb popped out of the socket, it was laying in my palm. I flicked it with my other hand and it sucked itself back in! Took years to stop hurting. My first kid was a baby then, realized selling it [the quad] was the thing to do.

    Kid threw a rock at the window today, making me wonder if i kept the wrong one. :D

    I would thank you could use a chemical like Remedy. Mix a small amount at the suggested rate. A half gallon in a 5 gallon bucket? Use a roller that will fit in the bucket with an extended handle. Then brush the leaves. PPD devices of course.
    Lay the roller over the bucket and let it drain. Put it up it a safe place and pop the cover back on the bucket for retreatment as needed. Or trim some bark and paint some on.
