Sparky-(Admin) 26,239 #10028 Posted 6 hours ago Since flying back home my sleep pattern is all out of whack. Woke up at 4:45 this morning and knew going back to sleep wasnt an option (I usually sleep in til 6:30-7:00 on a Sunday). So I loaded my bike and taped a flashlight to my bike frame and hit the trails! Did 12.XX miles. Came up on a tree across the trail that would have been a painful wreck without the light. It only shone out maybe 12’ ahead of me, just enough I guess. 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My grandfather made wooden trucks for each of his grandsons and great grandsons when they were born. I'm thinking I might go build some of those for my nephews. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was fun and the kids loved it! Although the 3 year old wants it motorized... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well my daughter ran away screaming "ew ew ew" and my sister asked "why do you do this to me" when I showed her, and my wife just rolled her eyes with that "again?" look, so maybe not universal. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With that positioning you'll have to keep your eyebrow shaved too. Otherwise the scar just won't show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey, I had one to match that on my left eye. Not a drive shaft but a 4-12 X 40 Leupold scope. Shooting uphill at a mule deer in Montana. Recoil from a .270 Win Mag wtih 3,000+ ft lbs of muzzle energy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
