Full rebuild took me about 30 minutes. CR80 inverted cartridge fork seal and wiper replacement.

256|365 May 15, 2012 Had planned on doing the Cherohala Skyway today, but turned out the rain wanted to stay in it’s part of the mountains rather than the Dragon. So we rode the Dragon all day until we were

255|365 May 14, 2012 Rode the Dragon 4 times today in the rain. The rain was not fun, but the Dragon was fantastic as always! Can’t wait to get some time on it in the dry.

254|365 May 13, 2012 Even stuck in the rain, this part of the country is calming and beautiful. Everyone here is so nice and laid back. It blew me away how considerate our Walmart checker was. Oh, and seeing all

252|365 May 11, 2012 I’ve always preferred travelling at night. The constant temperatures, no blinding sun, and little traffic are all positive aspects of the night drive. Our truck’s diesel purr is a nice backdrop for thinking about life and

In my 4th vlog I decide to talk about a pet peeve of mine – that the bikini is more acceptable than the bra. Yes, I wear a sports bra, bikini, and underwear bra.

251|365 May 10, 2012 Getting back to working out more. This ab roller is torture, but it does produce good results. Worked on some jobs and continued to get ready for the Dragon trip that we are leaving for tomorrow.

240|365 April 29, 2012 It amazes me how some people can let their stuff get so dirty. Took us nearly all day to scour the grease and grime off of our SVs. Oh, and S100 is some awesome stuff.
