What the heck is there to do up there? Whats the riding situation?

Please tell me you have sand dunes and I'm a coming!

Never, ever did that and once in my life would love to try it.

**slothminx** · 05-25-2005, 08:38 PM

remember the camera if your going to be using the trikedar we need pics

**Oldshell4481** · 05-25-2005, 08:41 PM

come up any time lol,Trails are very harsh, no dunes... nothing much to ride really, if i tried i could go the 40-50 miles to augusta's frye mountain, other than that its pretty small. we have snowmobile trails that if i knew most of them or had a gps i could make it. i like going up north on the logging roads ( see Maine_trikers post about his ride today) its all dirt roads..

Imagine if the guy calls and says 700- 800 takes them all!

Anyone want to split in with me?

Sure! I just sold that POS Polaris 500

I

you know, i find itd the same way down here, my bro-in -law and i go cruising almost every saturday, just to spot 3-4 wheelers that are laid up/ junked. If we turn into a high-end neighborhood, we usually ride a little faster than if we were in an older one. I took the wife an kids out the other day for a ride, i found 6 or 8 laid up in a 10 mile stretch...most dont look as nice as those though.

I also do the same thing, stop, knock on the door, and if no-one is home, leave a note . I love it when someone is there....most people will JUMP when you say "I'll give ya 50 bucks for it" and pull out a couple 20s an a 10.

We would make a great tri team then! Cover a 40 mile radious or so.

Im to the point that I carry an open notebook and a pen to quickly write down an address as soon as I see something, most of the time I cant stop right then to check on it.

**Huffa** · 05-26-2005, 07:39 PM

Well so far all the ones I have ever left notes at, I only got one reply and that was the most butchered up 200S or ES or whatever I ever saw.

Instead of unbolting the motor they just cut the frame to remove it.

Not much at all left but even a few free parts makes me happy.

The guy just days ago said I can have it. Hope he sticks to his word although if not, certainly no great loss or big deal on my part.

Weird though, they sit and sit and sit for years, you leave a note and they don't call me back

I just know they are the type that think someday they will fix it.

**slothminx** · 05-26-2005, 07:46 PM

or maybe there hoping that if they leave it long enough it will fix itself

have you ever gone back to the places you have seen the trike to see if they have moved after you haved left the note . maybe in leaving the note you jogged them into thinking ahh yes i think i will do that resto on the 110 i have been putting off for 12 years:P
