The road home from BF4

 I was having trouble finding enough grease for my truck for the return trip to oregon until I found this gold mine.
 Around 300 gal in there , I took 125 gal.
 Oregon mongol's past me on the I 5. Some bad dudes
 It was hot so I stopped for a swim in lake shasta.


 A big rig shot a rock into my windshield, I tried to fix it but it made it worse. Time for a new shield.
Oregon sunset, cant beat it.

Fox headquarters

 Got a chance to tour  FOX Last week. These old bikes are the first thing I saw in the lobby.

 The photo lab


 In the back they have this sick mini course .


 Pump bumps with a mini ramp in the back


 Hall of fame

 This one's for you Joe.
The man behind the tour and the man behind the lens. This is Rob Donegan, he's the photo dude at FOX. We went to lunch and got to talking about vegy oil stuff and he ended up knowing some friends of mine from oregon, it is a small world after all. Thanks for having me Rob.

The road to born free

 I packed up the truck for a long trip from portland to southern Ca for born free 4 moto show. I decided to take the dirt bike and camp and ride some trails along the way.


 Stopped in truckee /tahoe and rode this track. Real fun
 I set up camp at night and woke up to this thing close by.
 Boca lake in truckee
 More track time.
 Drove a couple hours and went camping with my family in Twin lakes near bridgeport and mammoth mtn
 Went on a 10 mile hike with some of the fam. If I could do it over I wouldn't .


 Stopped at this gas station for a beverage and ran into these guy's riding from oregon to born free.I actually met up with them at the show and gonna try to meet up back in oregon for some riding.
 And there they go.

 Stopped at this antique store out on the 395, so much good stuff.






 Finally got to the show. Got lost and showed up too late to enter the show but still got to park in the show. Met alot of good people , had a great time . Cant wait for next year.
