Byron, I think you've got too much stuff on your hands. I'd be happy to help.

The temp on the dash was about as warm as it got. It actually snowed fairly hard between Stuttgart and Aschaffenburg. Another pic:

Obligatory pic - another one from my Yellowstone trip in 1998. There are maybe one or two places in the entire world I'd ever consider moving to that have a "non-tropical" type of climate with cold, winter and snow. This area qualifies. It's beautiful enough to offset the misery induced by that whole "winter" thing. As long as I could do stuff like this every so often, I think I could tolerate winter again.

Can't wait to go back.

Have pics of the trail route itself?

I was heavy into Mountain Biking in the early days - Manitou elastomer shocks, chromoly frame, rapidfire shifters, all the old stuff ;-)

Nude photos that “High School Musical” star Vanessa Hudgens took that were intended only for co-star/boyfriend Zac Efron have recently surfaced, and their discovery could bring down the wholesome Disney blockbuster that’s captivated millions of teen fans.

Looks like a magneto driven straight from the front of the cam. If so, this is probably a serious race engine and the fan would either be omitted completely or the vehicle would have an electric fan.

Yup, just about 15 years to young for me. The whole thing kinda gives me the creeps. She is way to close in age to my eldest...
