Rackin up the miles (pics!)
im over 1500 miles and with the current mods the bike absolutely rocks now.... Trakmasters are very confidence inspiring in the loose stuff. power on slides are very controllable and a blast!!
ok ill stfu and bring the pics on. lol
this pic is at Stillwater dam in Uniondale.. just stopped for a smoke and a quick pic... beautiful views up here in the mountains.

heres a little surprise that me and the wife found in the middle of nowhere. we came around a corner and were suprised to see this huge hulk of steel quietly rusting away in the middle of the woods.. its a very good testament to this areas coal heritage.

Nice pics! Thanks for posting them. Those town names sound familiar. Are you in Southern Illinois? I went to Jr. High in O'Fallon, IL. Had a friend in Casyville that had a Honda Trail 90 that we used to ride in that area.
Looking forward to more pics!
