Um... I guess these qualify as sports...

New to this forum, not sure where to post a few pics of what I do in the field. Meh, feel free to move them elsewhere, you moderators, no worries. Say, does anyone recognize the bike I put up as my avatar? An Internet Sawbuck to whoever pegs the make, model & year, LOL... good luck with all o' that. Okay, time for a few pics, call 'em the story of my life:

Alright, lemme post these and see if they came through okay, then I'll add a few words on the iPad. Wait, at least one of you site members may recognize these photos, LOL, as they've already been posted elsewhere. Here goes...
 
Okay, looks like they came through alright, though they don't look very big. Meh, good enough... that ol' desktop computer is slower than a snail through molasses in the wintertime, so I need to get off the Internet and start wrenching on my bike. Time's a-wastin'!!! LOL. Shot #2 shows the entrance road to the Valley of the Moon, where we used to hang out, camp, climb, ride, shoot, etc., way back in the day when nobody else was around, and the place had not yet been ruined by hordes of illegals and a heavy Border Patrol presence. Not sure whether one can still ride in the valley itself, but I'll probably haul the monkeybike out there to ride the entrance road, which is heller fun in itself. The sailing shots show Los Coronados, my spiritual home on earth... where I go to get away from EVERYBODY & EVERYTHING, LOL. Primo wildlife sanctuaries miles offshore, nobody else around during stealth voyages to various summits, where I chill out with countless critters and party like a rock star under a million stars, my bivouac site right at each island summit. Killer venue, literally, with 2-ton Great Whites cruising the islands and treating the seal & sea lion colonies as buffet tables. Doesn't get much wilder than those stealth voyages, I assure you, you are definitely ALONE IN THE WILDERNESS, LOL. Hey, y'all like the custom trailer I built for my old Laser of decades? Typical West African engineering, those neoprene-lined slots I cut were for the three spars, while the boat rested topside-down in the cradle, the shallow curve of the cradle cut to exact specs through a process known as "spiling." I have a long history of building custom cradles & trailers for small craft, don'tcha know??? Say, those last two shots are of Isla Norte, my favorite island in the group of four, simply because it's the furthest from the mainland and it's as WILD AS IT GETS... in that last shot, you are looking down several hundred vertical feet toward a large colony of sea lions (with a few seals here & there), in one of the wildest places you can imagine. One slip here and you splatter like a melon all over those rocks below, LOL. I'm off to wrench on the bike, talk to y'all later...

P.S. Wait, look closely at shot #12 and you can see my old Laser, derigged and placed topside-down at the head of the cove in the lee of Middle Island... how stealth voyages are executed by old school locals, AYE??? Only now I cover my "new" boat, a 12' MiniFish, with a brown tarp and seaweed, so the derigged hull looks like just another rock except at extremely close range.

Whoooowheeeee!!! Made progress today, I was riding the rocket up and down the alley before dusk... I really gotta NOT do that, especially since the bike doesn't even have an OHV sticker yet, LOL. But I only have one more day of minor adjustments and tweaking (not meth, I hate all chemical trash, just tweaking the controls), then I can visit the DMV and get the title/OHV sticker squared away. I'm beginning to think this bike was never registered, which would suit me just fine, be cheaper that way, just the $52 OHV fee and no "back fees" or "penalties" for bringing the title up to speed, pfffft. I've also decided to go camping before I swap out the throttle cable, this one works okay, I just need to adjust the clutch because I messed with it earlier. As soon as I bag an OHV sticker, I think I'll go camp and ride the heck outta the bike for 2 or 3 days, THEN come back and put the bike into the shop to extract a couple of noncritical bolts which broke off, swap out the throttle cable, possibly throw on some taller MX bars I saw yesterday, etc. I can do the whole tap & die number, but that means buying the kit again, and the dude at the cycle supply place has the pro gear to yank those broken bolts pronto, plus he knows I'll sling a couple o' MMJ nugs his way, LOL, kinda like a bonus to enjoy later. Anyway, I'm comfortably tired, chillin' with a cold beer before making dinner (leftovers, still mighty tasty). Just wanted to check in and report my progress... I reckon nobody guessed the make, model & year of the bike in my avatar, LOL. I'll give y'all a hint: it was a British bike, though it hadn't quite developed the annoying habit of leaking oil as most British bikes do, LOL. Not yet, anyway, thing was brand-new when I first bagged it. Yes, that's an embarrassing "Learner's Permit" taped to the rear fender, since I was only 16 or 17 at the time... just turned 17, as I recall. Alright, lemme post this and see what else is going on. Wait, I forgot to mention that I changed the oil in my offroad rocket (again) and swapped out the plug, putting a correctly-gapped fresh plug in there, 10-4??? Did a bunch of other stuff today too, and discovered that the rear brake pedal/lever is NOT the right pedal/lever for this particular bike, LOL. Only took me about 45 minutes, BWAHAHAHAHA!!! As soon as I fired up the iPad to access the online Z50 manual, I realized I was trying to install the wrong pedal/lever, pffffffft. No worries, nobody else was around to see my endeavors and laugh at 'em, LOL.

Might as well start with this link right here... there are some cool truck camping and outdoor adventure shots posted on both pages of this thread, and some primo island shots of Los Coronados.

Outdoor Adventure USA, LLC â€Â¢ View topic - Random outdoor adventure shots...

You guys who've been cool to me here, you'll get a kick outta these photos. Some of those places would've been perfect for riding monkeybikes!!! LOL. It'd almost be worth the ticket, riding a monkeybike to the summit of Guadalupe Peak in West Texas... hafta frame the citation and hang it on the wall, 10-4???

"SAY, MR. PARK RANGER, YOU ARE RECORDING THAT BIKE AS A '78 HONDA Z50, RIGHT??? IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME..."

LOL.

Classic ballot initiative...

Some Orange County lawyer paid $200 to submit a ballot initiative stipulating that anyone who engages in gay sex be killed by "bullets to the head or by any other convenient method." The Sodomite Suppression Act seeks to amend the California Penal Code to make gay and lesbian sex a capital offense and the distribution of gay "propaganda" a crime punishable by a $1 million fine or banishment from the state. The scrub AG wants to shoot down the initiative... same p.o.s. who refused to defend a voter-approved ban on pack rat marriages, go figure.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Damn, things are already heating up this weekend, should be highly entertaining when this story breaks for real... and I guess ya already know I'll be signing the petitition, LOL. That'd be one way to pry this nasty criminal strap-on scrub D.A. out of office, as crowbars, dynamite, and the so-called "legal process" aren't working. Good to see that I'm not the only citizen sick and tired of these Epic Darwin Failures and their divisive agenda... maybe I'll contact that Orange County attorney and give him some more ammo by sharing my saga of corruption and criminal misconduct.

Oh, yeah, I'll be back later to post some more pics...

Big ol' editorial on that proposed ballot initiative in this morning's U-T (local rag in Dago), and of course the media trolls are attacking the author of the initiative... LOL. Those media trolls don't dare defy the PC Nazi Queers, while I reckon most normal folks are sick & tired of the same trash. Boy, you just can't write better stuff than this, like comic soap opera in the media limelight. Turns out the attorney who wrote the proposed initiative works out of an office in Huntington Beach, where some good friends of mine lived for many years... classic place, Huntington Beach (Surf City, USA) and the H.B. Pier, with "The Wedge" a short distance away in Newport. In light of this new ballot proposal, I suppose I should refer to it as "The Wedgie" (LOL), but THAT would be disrespectful to the break itself, which is powerful and can easily kill you... every year, people die at "The Wedge" after getting pounded, breaking their necks and/or drowning. Dangerous place when it's big, no place for tourists or the clueless.

Going back to that proposed ballot initiative, the whole scene is just more drama whipped up by those looking to divide and conquer. Canadian intellectual Henry Makow had it right: these Epic Darwin Failures are just tools of the Illuminati, the "one-percenters" or ultra-rich wanks, those angling for world domination, whatever you wish to call them. These Illuminati tards know that by constantly cramming the gay agenda into everybody's face, they can create divisive rancor and ill will... the same way Hollywood directors and the editors of various publications know they can create backlash by dwelling on interracial affairs, mainly by slinging provocative shots of black males with white women. Yesiree, those clowns sure know how to stir the pot, LOL. This latest Jerry Springer number in the media is no different: keep the propaganda machine turned on high, and take the minds of citizens and taxpayers off what's really important.

All the same, this fiasco should provide some entertainment on the side, it'll be hilarious when normal citizens start slamming these Epic Darwin Failures. 'Bout time, too, I know I'm not the only citizen sick & tired of these whining little fagtards and their constant "in-your-face" tactics... a ballot proposal like this one would give regular people some relief, LOL. The nanosecond some Epic Darwin Failure started his gay routine: BLAM!!! BLAM!!! BLAM!!! LOL. "Hallelujah, I won't have to listen to another whining scrub queer ever again!!! WHERE DO I SIGN?!?!?!?" Wow, just think of a world where rainbows & pirates haven't been hijacked by these Epic Darwin Failures... makes me wonder how REAL PIRATES back in the day would've responded to gay agendas. Probably by yanking those cutlasses and cleaving a few gay skulls, LOL... I imagine there'd be some cursing and verbal gay-bashing in there as well, and the obligatory heavy drinking and celebration afterward.

Well, guess I'll log off and see about handling some assigned tasks, I scrapped my plan to sail today because the Santa Ana winds have again not materialized. This must be due to climate change, this weird business of having just enough wind to bring the heat from inland areas, and no more, just light fickle airs that are no good for thrashing at sea. Last time I went sailing, the weather pulled the same number, so I'll just hold that plan and move forward elsewhere. Say, what did all of you think about that plane crash in the Alps, the one where the copilot deliberately set the controls and flew into the mountains? Damn, that's some cold-blooded act there, makes ya wonder if the guy was just plain crazy? He doesn't look like a terrorist, but then again, what does a terrorist look like??? I don't do commercial aviation anymore, thank goodness. And just think: all of those people aboard that plane PAID GOOD MONEY TO DIE. What a drag that must be... if I get whacked, I want to go out with my bill or fare UNPAID, LOL. Damn, that's just wrong... LOL.
 
Hey, OLD CT, you're STILL a knucklehaid, LOL. :47:

Where's that motor with the damned Stroker??? You're LAGGIN', BOY!!! :19:

PREAKNESS STAKES this Saturday, WOOHOO!!! Who's yer pick to win??? :39:

Holy Cr@p, I may hafta watch the BELMONT STAKES on the road... meh, no worries, sports bars are a dime a dozen. :4:

"SON!!!" (a la Jerry Reed) :13:

"THAT MOTOR LOOKS CLEAN, BUT AN AUTOMATIC?!?" :35:

WTF is up with THAT??? Can I get one with a manual clutch and shift lever??? :4:
 
Final thought before drifting off to sleep: with the fluids drained and some stock & flukes welded to it, this Lifan motor would make an excellent BOAT ANCHOR, LOL. :41:
 
Holy Cow!!! I was doing a few dishes after macking a bowl of cereal, so I turned on the TV for a few moments in order to have a little entertainment on the side... stumbled upon the NHRA Drag Racing Pro Stock Finals on FSW, and these cars are BAD@$$!!! The commentator and camera crew showed a close-up of one motor, and the thing was CLEANER than the 108cc motor (with Stroker) that OLD CT posted earlier!!! No lie, you could've eaten off the thing, it was so clean... of course, you'd probably get PUMMELED by the crew for getting the engine dirty, LOL. "WHAT?!? YOU GOT SALSA ON OUR MOTOR?!?" [insert loud pummeling noises and painful cries here] Holy Cr@p, they showed a side segment on those long-@$$ed cars, the top fuel drag racers, and those things push 10,000hp, can you believe it?!? I wonder what that would feel like, having 10,000hp on my FrankenBike?!? "ObamaCare City, here I come!!! WOOHOO!!!" Probably have a large monthly tire & tube bill as well, LOL. Alright, I'm off to knock out that stupid boat dolly tire, then check my little offroad rocket. Lookie-loos/tire kickers aren't scheduled to arrive till 1300... Holy Mackerel, some gal on TV was talking about a top fuel racer going 329 m.p.h. on a run!!! Can you see me, Boyz??? Doing 329 on my little offroad rocket?!? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :red70:

"LINDBERGH FIELD CONTROL TOWER, THIS IS FRANKENBIKE 1, AM I CLEARED FOR TAKEOFF?!?" :30:

:red70: :yellow70: :red70: :yellow70: :red70:
 
Damn, I just gave myself a STYLIN' SS CUT, I was gonna do it tomorrow morning but I went ahead and knocked it out tonight... sandwiched it in between the last of the action in "NINJA ASSASSIN" and the first of the action in "TRANSPORTER 2" with Jason Statham. How's THAT for timing??? LOL. And it's a good cut too, the last one was sweet enough to prompt several good-looking women to comment upon it, but this one is even better, and I'll probably bleach the f#% out of it mañana for the full SS effect, BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Maybe wear my NORTON T-shirt, the one that says "MADE IN ENGLAND" beneath the logo, LOL. Why??? Because I can, 10-4??? Besides, the weather is warming up and it's time for the severe "STURM UND DRANG" CUT, LOL. I dunno how those long-haired hippies handle the heat when the humidity is on the rise... but meh, not my problem. One of these days, I'm gonna shave my head Chelsea Skin Style, then pop-rivet cooling fins to my skull in a fore-and-aft orientation. Probably start a new global fashion without even trying, LOL. The fins will go well with my FrankenBike when I'm out riding, ya thank??? Okay, back to this ridiculous gal in stiletto heels and machine pistol, pffffffft... looks like some '80s pop tart, the skank. And the John Wayne 1000-round clips??? "DARLIN', PUH-LEEZ!!! SOMETIME THIS YEAR, YOU'RE GONNA HAFTA SWAP MAGAZINES..." :35:

Holy Mackerel!!! This "TRANSPORTER 2" flick is another unintentional comedy... haven't laughed this hard in a bit, the scene with the big black dude aboard the boat in the shop or warehouse was HILARIOUS!!! And the Laws of Physics?!? PFFFFFFFT... FUHGEDDABOUTEM, THIS IS HOLLYWOOD!!! Whoever writes this cr@p must be HIGH ON CRACK... that's all I have to say about the matter. Alright, time for a bong hit, then this HolyWad Bull$h!t will make more sense, 10-4??? :43:
 
Wait, OLD CT!!! That scene where Jason blows through the toll booth in the black Lamborghini Murcielago??? Moi back in the day, blowin' through yet another Jersey Pike toll booth in the big truck, 10-4??? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Damn, this movie is FUNNEH, even though the makers were angling for drama... :13:

This is a 4 speed semi auto just like manual except no clutch to pull in.
It is a kickass motor. Nope, you can't get any manual motors from me as I have no manual cores. This is the first 4 speed auto I built and I actually like it. Might just keep it, and not sell it! Money talks though!
 
Preakness Stakes today, WAHOOOO!!! If me beloved mum were still alive, she'd certainly pick Stradivari, but moi, I gotta go with Exaggerator, that horse has my name all over it, LOL. :horse:

Awesome sailing yesterday, plenty o' breeze and heller action, but today I'm stiff and sore, so I'm just gonna catch up on laundry, drink a few beers and watch the Preakness. More on sailing later... :flypig:

Hey, OLD CT, here's your Preakness pick at the gate: :deadhorse:

Three days later: :painkiller:

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :19:
