    Spent a few a hours pulling porcupine needles out of my brothers gf lab last night. Maybe now she knows not to chomp down on em. We numbed her up with lidocaine 1st so she was pretty easy about it

    Edit: i could only imagine how much the emergency vet bill would be on a sat night

    That's gotta be #### near 45 feet of ice jammed up there! Screenshot_20200426-124441_Samsung Internet.jpg


    Edit: normal water level is about 20-25 feet below where that photo was taken.

    I saw that. I've spent a lot of time in waterways. A freind lost his house in the fire and never rebuilt. That "berm" to keep the water out along the clearwater just seemed hookie to me.

    In 53' van and 48'-53' flat world normal spec anymore is 36" king pin.

    Now I have a 42' flat, and 42' hopper. I have 30" king pin. My biggest reason is to meet interbridge and allowed 80k.

    There definitely are others in different situations with different reasons. As @Rontonio mentioned.

    No kidding. It drops down onto Franklin now. Wouldn't suprise me if the ice knocks the south end over. The ice jam has got to be at or above the bridge deck on the south now.

    Honda 450R was the 1st 450 I got on when i was 13. Coming off a 250 I was amazed. I was really forward to doing a few GNCC races this year but I imagine now that's all on hold.

    Got a 13.9:1 piston and a set of hot cams sitting on the bench. Might do that this week. I'd love to get my hands on a old 250R 2 stroke.
