    Well if my bows were taller I could get enough coke on to be worth the trip and not worry about tearing up my tarp. If I had the choice I would just not haul coke but that doesn’t seem to work out

    It's been a miserable start to the week thus far, left my family at noon yesterday to be in mobile as requested by the shipper and my dispatcher. Arrived yesterday evening around 830, woke up this morning and it seemed mighty quiet, no trucks, no employees, granted it was an hour before they opened but as I suspected, sure enough ELG will take any day off around a holiday to make for a long weekend, would have been nice for someone to tell me. I toted the crap back to Pensacola which is where I type this very disgruntled message from, still sitting!!!!! April fools must've rolled over in to Monday.

    Ready to write the week off, the company I work for is rather large, we have a fairly large refuse division, on my way to ormond this morning I was rerouted to fort Walton to haul a load of said refuse, what a week thus far, and a waste of one at that. I see some moto therapy in my future for the weekend.

    BTW, that's me in the air in those photos, that's one of the ways I keep my sanity out here during the week.

    Good ole Norfolk! That’s where I had my pant crapping experience of trying to dump uphill in my automatic. If it’s the same place. If it is, and you have machined turnings be extra cautious! I dumped in Athens TX Monday morning, reloaded clay in Lone Star TX and brought it up to Tulsa. Got sand out of Picher OK up for KC. Then I loaded scrap right by our yard and took off for Jeffersonville IN. Got that dumped Wednesday morning and reloaded sulphur across the river in Louisville. That slid off in Mound City MO today and they put salt on me at our yard for tomorrow. I’m at home just hanging out. Dump in Macon, MO then reload in Macon MO for St. Joseph then call it a week. Might be able to run into KC with ya tomorrow if we time it just right!

    @motocross25 im very happy with the new purchase, I got rid of my 08 450, and after riding this bike I realized how much of a dinosaur that thing was. These fuel injected 250's in my opinion are absolutely perfect for the weekend warrior like myself.
     
    motocross25 Thanks this.
