  1. Just a quick note to say "hi" to all my friends (and others)
    I'm alive and doing fine in the desert of Kuwait.

    For those who are into "serious" riding I have the following link:

    Now that is some EXTREEME mad skill, yo! That gully has to be a full 9
    inches deep.

    Hey Penny, can you make me some baggie riding shorts out of desert
    cammo?
    These DCCU's are chafing the h&ll out of me!-)

    as always, just gotta find the right fabric. If you are serious, you know
    where to find me. You can also cut them off and wear regular lycra
    underneath.

    The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present.
    The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the
    occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew. We
    must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country.

  7. It's required, DOD Regulations.... I also found out (when I got
    "pulled over" by the MP's) that the Barney Reflectors on the spokes,
    pedals, seatpost, and head-tube, are also _required_. Once the MP
    looked over my bike and figured out it was not the typical Huffy from
    the AAFES he let me slide, but it is something I need to tend to.

    Ohh.. word of advice: Riding with NVG's (Night Vision Goggles) _seemed_
    like a good idea, the other night..... it wasn't (ouch!-)

    that would be "willful destruction of Government property"

    I would send pictures of riding around the bombed out Kuwait base,
    between here and The Rock, but it is a "Restricted Area", so I would
    not be riding there, except on the main road transiting the base, you
    understand.

    [censored], had I known you were up there I would have taken my bike with me and
    stayed a few more days. I was in Ridgway and came back yesterday.

    but it was kinda chilly, 22°F Friday morning, brrrrr and had to use the
    snowshoes to trek into the wtt (if your home has wheels...well you might
    just be a redneck, JF)

    and it was near 90 when I came back into Phoenix

    but it was in the 60's for the beginning of this mornings ride

    life is good

    Hey Clyde, Glad to hear you're doing fine.

    Never transited Kuwait myself. When I go into Iraq it's through Jordan.
    Usually
    hop an OGA bird but been known to take what's available. I hear Kuwait is
    quite
    the garden spot.

    Even though I can't open the link (not a member of the forum, and not
    enough time to worry about filling out a form to join), I'm sure it's
    groovy.

    You da man, John! Thanks for everything you're doing.

    The Colorado Plateau Desert is pretty big and I didn't say what part I
    was in.

    There I go assuming or was it wishful thinking? So what part were you in or
    will you have to kill me if you tell me?

    You know I don't give up locations, but the photos will probably give
    you a good idea.

  20. I have always wanted to try that. I imagine the depth perception is off
    though. Are you using the 7 Bravos?
