Really speaks to the type of people they are. As locals they constantly are exposed to every dumb ass move that some groups pull, but still don't paint us all with the same brush. I have always found the blue river folks to be super friendly

ya thats a nono yikes...

Woaaaa! someone pull those discrimintaing photos!:d
Sweet pics! Where were the boys riding?

Actually the tunnel was fine - the bumper and LED didnt fare so well though. It was increidible till the Diamond Drive went on the cat. ( took it apart and there isnt a single tooth left on the planetary)

We rode East Groundhog and it was deep.



Thanks Patty and Robin and crew for the great stay - as always we had a very enjoyable time. Fun bench racing with Keith too.
See you guys probably next week - cummon fresh

I don't think any one can top my dumb ass move!! Thanks for the compliments and on behalf of all of us here in Blue River we all truly enjoy having you all visit and liven up our sleepy little town.

looks a dry, was that the cause or the effect??

looks a dry, was that the cause or the effect??

I was looking at it today with a mechanic and we both still dont know. It is possible that it ran dry because of failure that allowed the seal to leak behind the secondary, or its possible that the secondary leaked enough to cause failure.
I had just changed the oil and did an inspection 12 miles before failure - noticed the seals were going on one of the #11 bearings in the drive. At that point it was a coin toss as to changing them out, as the bearings looked fine themselves. I am still not sure what I could of done different other then changed out the dd for a diamond light and then not have to have the adventure of pulling a 500 lb paperweight out of the bush for 4 hours. I had been told that the dd wouldnt stand up to a turbo, but i thought I would get more then 250 miles on it before it went.
All part of the adventure.
