Yip...It's me...I don't know where to start....I have basically been mulling over whether I even wanna ride anymore after the last Little Sahara trip...I looked forward to that trip(as always) for MONTHS...And then, the piece of shit bike breaks down for the 2nd trip in a row to Little Sahara...I was really pissed,depressed,etc. after heading home Saturday(instead of Monday as planned)...I told the wife when I got home that I was through with riding...Too much time, effort and money to have my weekends continued to be ruined by my piece of crap bike and it justs seems like I'm always "begging" people to go ride and I am just tired of having to try so hard to enjoy something that I really love doing...I have to give her all the credit in the world..She stayed after me about it for a couple of weeks and begged me not to give up something that I loved doing so much...I love that damn woman..So I made some decisions about riding...First, I got my piece of crap Su-sucki fixed ($640 later) and sold it immediately...I got $3600 out of the piece of crap(after prob having about 4500 tied up in it)...Next, after having to beg Paul to go riding with me every time, I decided to make him an offer on his new bike that he never rides...He accepted and I bought it...He made me a great deal that has allowed me to upgrade it in everyway I wanted to(which I am still in the middle of)...So basically, I finally have a 'like new' 4wheeler that I plan on keeping for a good long time or sell it easily for alot more money than I have in it if I give up riding....I'm gonna see how this next year goes...I'm gonna give this deal another 6 months to a year and see what happens....If I am constantly having to fix this new bike and/or constantly having to beg people to go ride I will probably throw in the towel for good...I don't wanna have to work at something that is supposed to be my stress relief from all the other crap I put up with everyday....I am off work from 5/24 until 6/4....I am gonna make a run(even if just for the day) out to Little Sahara during that timeframe...If it turns into a nightmare maybe thats just a sign from the big man upstairs to just give it up...I guess we shall see...So, in summary, I am still alive and riding(although I haven't in over a month)...Thanks for the emails Dawn and Candy and hopefully I will see everyone soon....
