Look at what we caught in the muddy water. Bob can kind of lay some of the blame for this one on me. Although, just cause i said it looked like a fun spot didn't mean that he had to go and get stuck in it.
This was a picture from Sunday, and i almost forgot to post it. I know he'll be happy to find out that i posted a picture of his bike being winched out of the mud by a polaris.

Partridge
Well i finally made it out on the bike for a nice little trip. We left fairly late in the afternoon but we covered a quite a bit of ground while we were out. We even managed to see a bit of wildlife, the partridge, a hawk and a few rabbits.
Bob thought he was fast enough to catch one of the small rabbits. It was pretty funny to watch, he literally lept off the bike before it was completly stopped...then as the bike started rolling backwards down the hill he jumped back on the bike to put the brakes on.
I wish we had gotten a picture of the hawk that was out beside the trail, but Bethany had the camera and kept on going. We waited for her, but by the time she decided to come back the hawk had flown off...maybe next time.

Literally Twisted
I don't even drive a four wheeler anymore, but i'm getting lots of practice trying to straighten them out. First we were trying to straighten Bob's front rack out between a couple trees...which is kind of ironic since it was a couple of trees that made it crooked in the first place. Then last night we tried to straighten out Chris's bike a bit. He tiped it over and landed hard enough to push the back rack down on the right side, pull the right handle bar down and forward and twist the spindle on the right side. We managed to straighten out the rack and handle bar last night, we didn't even take them off the bike, we just used a 5 foot crow bar to get some leverage and pull things back into place....as for the spindle, i think he's going to price that before we attempt to straighten it. Personnally i think it should be replaced if at all possible, it is kind of important and will cause some serious tire wear if we don't get it right. Oh well i like getting the workout as long as it's not my own bike that i'm trying to fix :D
