    Never checked it at idle. Had truck in shop giving it a once over, took rad cap of reservoir and found a very thick chocolate shake instead of coolant. Said a few cuss words and walked away for a bit so I wouldn't start beating on it with a sledgehammer.
    Had to get the oil cooler up to operating temp before it showed signs of leaking.

    I’ve been watching his videos a few days ago. Never seen the axle clean before in a competition, but I would love to be live at an event to see this.

    Well because of “reasons” I was not able to get the bed made or go to AZ bike week. But It will now become my daily for a few weeks. IMG_7834.jpeg

    I am sitting in a diner having lunch when a pilot car pulls into the lot. Dude gets out, does the supertrucker strut, waitress greets him and suddenly he starts volunteering info, from employment history to the weight of the last load escorted.

    Toughest part of his day was hanging flags and banners and turning on an amber strobe light. Why do they never talk about what they actually do? It’s like watching porn and then bragging about your prowess with women. You watched, you blew your wad…but you really didn’t do anything.

    I had to go to Almo ID this morning before daylight and take a long hike amongst the rocks in City of Rocks and found out that I wintered to good and need to quit the Maverick breakfast burritos and maybe get my ###### into some kind of semblance of shape before the bird pup gets here—- probably don’t count but I needed to get off my chest

    I have to stop them when they start with the “I took this,” load blah, blah, blah.
