Aaannd I'm back. Been spending most of my web weeling time over on BC4x4. Waiting for the rain to stop so's I can get back outside & continue fighting, er I mean fixing, my truck. Now that winters almost over, its about time I got round to making the heater work again. LoL

Been busy wrenching & wheeling lots lately. Still lots of snow up the FSR's, but there are some trails opening up again. Spending most of my YT time over on my blog (see sig line), or reviewing bumpers & armour.

I think I passed you on Harrison West on Saturday, I was going north bound loaded to the gills. I got some good carnage, time to rethink the rear suspension lay out.

I was just overloaded, you passed me at about 18kms and did not reolise it was you till I was long past. I was loaded with 3 other people and way way to much gear. I broke both rear shock mounts and put a hole in my gas tank as well as lost a front shackle nut. Trip other than that was great we were at about 60kms and had a beach all to our selves.
Truck is going though slow repairs, hope to have a gas tank this weekend and then fix the rear shocks and springs.

Thought I'd say hello. In Vancouver currently, but always in the mountains on wknds
You might see my blue runner around although I prefer to bike in the city. I've seen a couple of your trucks, actually.

I lived at 10th and columbia up til 6 weeks ago. My money eating tank has only really grown in the last 4 months, so it wasn't so distinctive... What do you drive? There are a few built up 4runners and tacos in the area that I've seen. There is a supercharged taco over by quebec and 10th that I see a lot.
