Well, ya know for our little trikes any car can tow em... and it would be tough to get the mpg we get with our "goofy" tow rigs in a truck or SUV.. have ya ever tested to see what you get for mpg in your yaris? doesn't that thing get mid 30's mpg? i am betting about 25mpg in my celica loaded.. will see here in the coming weeks... and btw my goofy tow rig is better than yours.. its a convertible lol...

I went to pisgah state forest recently to mess around and clear my head a bit. Hangout at the lake. I have to say not that many miles of trails, but boy i was cooking in 6 gear on the main trails. Nice place to take it easy and hit the smooth trails/roads, do some swimming and find some hangout spots.

I also hit the hillsboro rail trails recently..... I kinda liking the smooth sandy stuff to be honest..

Im a little worried about my topend has been run pretty hard lately. I hope it makes it through to the My Washington ride...

200x has a new motor and just got a mojave kiskstarter come in this week. Just need to go through brake calipers and some odds and ends to paint.

Too many projects. The cuda is almost done with metal work and starting to prep to paint. That took away from the trikes as i am focused on getting welding done while summer is here...

Tecate is back on 3 wheels and almost done with new rebuilt shock. money money money........

**Deathrocket** · 06-23-2012, 01:14 PM

Paint!? that's just added weight.. but then again in my case.. so is the tape and zip ties...

**aldochina** · 06-26-2012, 02:13 PM

would love to go but I'm so hurting from trike fest I can barely walk right now. Pretty sure I cracked a rib, pipe burns on leg and scabs everywhere but one hell of a trip..

**brrcuda** · 06-28-2012, 06:18 PM

so any of you rats bring home trophies to represent new england trikers, or just broken backs and dreams..........lol

mt washington ride is next to start planning out.

dirtcrasher won a trophy for being the most lost guy with the best story.. truely epic and to long to type. peraps if he goes on the mount Washington ride well have a repeat ? he also won an award for just making it back ? not sure how the voting was done. john and the mass crew should have won the longest distance traveled to trikefest award but do to technical difficultites and some miss heard words he got

out of it by 2 miles ..928 vs 930 miles

**brrcuda** · 07-06-2012, 10:11 AM

any MX trophies??

thinking about getting registered in MA for just 1 year. Hit the 3 state parks in western mass.

, Aldo and I hit some pittsfield/washington mass trails and they were pretty sweet i have to say. We were illegal though and if we got mass registered we could explore for days on some smooth ass trails....
