    My backpack is full of food rations. Where do you store food when you find it?

    They were reloading on the gun. But the saw still was better. They had it rigged where he had to hit and hold for a split second also so that it got through to the skull. Had to have certain force on saw no just a tap

    I like the whole zombie thing as a joke. I don't watch any of those shows or movies so I'm not to up on the zombie apocalypse! Haha

    I always joke about the "zombie hunters" when I go to the rifle range. Decked out in all their tactical gear and zombie green stuff and targets.

    But her it's more gun owners and shoothers so if their safe and responsible I welcome them.

    Trust me I know much of their stuff is flawed.

    Just saw them revisit the .22 through a lighter myth. They said was busted unless it was a richochet. But they used a rifle. If they used a pocket pistol 22 I'm sure the rules may of been different.

    Bike.jpg Not sure if this puts the thread back on track or throws if off track at this point?? Here is a grainy old photo from when I was much more ignorant and free to do whatever. Pocono Speedway infield section between 1 and 2. This was a WERA event where we ran the 1/2 big track turns and then dipped into the infield then back onto 1. They would run a similar race using 3/4 and the infield between those turns at the same time.

    Was that an original gsxr?

    The AMA series of roadracing, called MotoAmerica, starts April 8-10 weekend in conjunction with the motoGP championship at Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin Texas.

    Cota, my current favorite track. Laguna was it but now that the big boys don't race there, I don't see it much.

    That was a first gen GSX-R 750. 1986 to be precise. Picked it up after returning with my Honda V65 Sabre that was in for warranty repair of the valves. Loved that 1100, but lost it for 8 weeks in the first summer I owned it due to mis-ground valves. Had to wait for the rep to approve the work. Picked it up only to find something else wrong with it as I left the dealers lot. So peeved I brought it back and told my salesmen they owned that bike. The Suzuki was on sale, so I road that one home. Amazing how much different a 2 wheeled machine can handle from one style to the next. That photo was probably around 89 or so. Ran Pocono a couple times and Summit Point (slippery point as it is also known) a couple times. That was a ton of fun. Short lived due to the fact that it cost more to race for the weekend than I made all week. Last bike I owned. Still keep the MC portion of my license active though. Never know.

    I just got passed by a trike a bit ago. He was so close to my "cage " that all I could see was his face and windshield. I bet he could see into the bed of my truck and almost pull stuff out if he wanted too. He rode like that for 1/4 mile before I guess things were right. And that's when there was an oncoming car...now he had time but still? Oh and passing me alone was already illegal since I was already running 5 to 10 mph over the speed limit.

    Yep that's a perfectly legal passing method. Safe too. There's no reason for that?
