That would be it GG, the bandwidth is being sucked dry by everyone looking for trains and the UPS man.

Wow, GG, you put the sounds in just right too. What else would I expect? I fully expected a steam engine to roll past you at the very beginning. Those old RR beds are great for ATV riding. We rode one in Idaho, from Island Park over the continental divide into West Yellowstone, twice. What a great r...

By the way, GG is there some kind of subliminal message in the fact that the train going over the tunnel you went through has UPS trucks on it? As someone who spends a lot of time waiting for the brown truck also, there has got to be some hidden, or obvious meaning in this. Since this is your last r...

Outstanding video GG. I DO love the trains included. The first one sounded like a steamer tourist train, or did you just dub that in. There is a lot of railroad history around your area. I also love the huge timber you were riding it. That looks like an excellent ride. I would love to to come up the...

GG, I just got through reading the same Gearmail from REI. That Colorado looks nice, but I just bought a 60CSx and haven't even had it on a trail yet. Its still winter, as you know. Anyway. I have to decide that I cannot keep up with all the new ones. I have an old etrex Legend, a Garmin iQue M3 tha...

Kendo,
Thanks a lot for the good report. Excellent news. I will expect mine early next week, since it takes a little longer to get to the right coast.
I see by his auction that he is down to 8 this morning. Going fast.

I just discovered the auction for these fuel packs and bought one. Since they are not sold here this is the only way I can get one.
The auction can be found at:

I just checked the Dennis Kirk and Rocky Mountain web sites, both appear to have the new canister only. BUT, not only are they not allowed in California, but also not in Maryland and DELAWARE, where I live. But maybe the Walmart way would work, but I am not sure now. By the way Geico will not insure...

Kendo,
Please report on what you think of them when they come. This sounds pretty good. Maybe the guy in Logan bought out the old company before they sold out or something.
Anyway, let us know.
Thanks

Guys, You would know more than I, Are these really Kolpin tanks? How does someone get "hundreds" of them? The ones listed on the Walmart site look different than these. I need one, or more, but am not sure about this. I'm thinking Sportsman's Warehouse where I can see what I am getting. Your opinion...

GG, This is a great find. I keep my Rubicon in a shed across the driveway. Occasionally I run a cord over to it and hook it up to a Battery Tender. But this would work good for me too. Got to find my Northern catalog. Since we don't get a lot of snow here, I assume that it could be outside on the sh...

GG, Good luck with the Osama hunt. I note that just recently they have doubled the bounty, er, reward for him. 50 million can buy a lot of Bighorns. There is a good chance I may be looking for him around Circleville next August also. I think I will just try and get close and hit him with a .357. I t...

I only have had Honda ATVs but have changed my oil all the time. This is very easy to do in any machine with a wet sump, ie, crankcase. Actually doing it yourself you can and probably should do it more often than recommended. I bought oil filters from the Honda dealer, or a local shop that carried F...
