That sno scoot that was all built up, was built by BullHeadMoto. There is a 16 page build thread on it over on snowest. I stopped and talked to him for like a half an hour about it, my group could hardly drag me away haha. Nice write up! Looks like next year I'll have to swing by the camp site

A mountain lion roaming the prairie found a bull, killed it and ate the entire bull. With a heavy belly, unable to walk, the lion laid in the tall grass moaning and roaring. Soon a hunter, attracted by the roaring, shot and killed the lion.
Moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut!

^ Thanks! Detail is where it's at hehe.
I am uploading a couple race videos now.
Side note. Just went to the Doctor. She says it appears I probably have a case of swine flu (H1N1) and they are not testing for it because a bazillion people have it now (In the past 2-3 weeks). It only kills you if you are weak and have other problems. So.. off to the couch I go. I called into work sick for the first time ever. I got a fever over night. Who knows where I got it. Everyone in the NY van was sick.

Good story man. There was one picture though that was how do you say, TMI!!!
Now I'm wondering, the group I was with, we all got sick too. Two of us pretty bad. Hope you (and everyone else that got sick) get better soon!!!

Your welcome! Speaking of tolls. Whats up with IL? TOLL freakin crazy! We paid over 40 dollars in tolls. I paid them on the way home since I didn't pay them on the way there.
Haha, IL is toll crazy. It's not as bad when you have a IPass. Tolls are half the price with the IPass.
Nice write up, by the way. Get that sheep flu taking care of before that spreads next.

if you stop at the welcome centers as you enter the state you can get the ipass right there...saves like one dollar, but we wouldnt have had to pull over i guess.
