Posted on October 10, 2010 by admin| 7 Comments

hi, i recently did this at Hurricane Harbour in Arlington, TX. And i have no idea what the name for the ride is? I dont need the specific name, just the general classification…. bungee flying? or rope flying? i have no idea what to call it.
i dont want to called bungee jumping because it is not.
They tie you to a rope, you can lying down, and you are raised up, then you release and are “swung” across the sky.
what will i call this?

During the second traffic Rush? In high winds? Without your prescription Eyewear? While having a Diabetic Sugarcrash?

Then I hit a Curb and flew several feet in the Air and actually became Airborne!!!
Fortunately, I am a very skilled and experienced rider and managed tp recover quite easily.
I lost my riding glasses.
I made it home in one piece…………
Fatboys are big, tough and Heavy Bikes……

Yesterday? Ain’t been one o’ my betta days…..
By the way, if anyone hasn’t noticed, I changed my Moniker once again as per my monthly regemin…

Kurt
(I’ve seen better dayeez,…been the star of many plays….I’ve seen better dayeez….dum duh dee da duh…. then the bottom drops out!!…) Love that song!!
Do you know what the implications of the “Donner Burger” are????
You know what? Cannibals are just another underrepresented and disenfranchised Minority group anyway!!
Nobody’s trying to impress you asshole.
If you don’t have anything better to comment then don’t.
Don’t ever comment to one of my questions again!
I’m trying to get home in time to beat a storm while sick on top of it… and this idiot………….
I know because I run my ’01 through the Power wash all the time and use the High pressure sprayer all over the Engine and Electrical and I always start right up and take off….No problem……
The only problem I have with this bike is that I’ve not had a servive since 2.5K and I have almost 7.5K and it sonds rough and alot of metally sound and I don’t have as much power.
The engine sounds…..like alot of moving metal inside…..
Byron, You might not be Diabetic or without prescription glasses or under exactly the same conditions but I’ll give you margin for a pitiful but failed attempt at tryin’ to be a smart guy…..fat and ugly classic biker moron type …yah… but smart, …not so much
I guarantee if you had? you’d never have recovered as I did. Especially being ill on top of it. You’d be lying in the hospital right now or dead. That IS skill and experience Fat man…..
BTW Byron, one of those thumbs up is mine…I gave it to you out of sympathy….
That’s how Moronic you really are………
Both things happened while on the road

Read a book….
Thanks S’ dog. seems like some of our most jealous and worse adversaries are on 2 wheels……doesn’t it?
Thanks Bob…..
I appreciate that…..Not true and funny as hell but I appreciate it all the much……
I should actually post on here once and pose as a Catty gay Guy”…
Now that would be funny!!!
Anybody who knows me and my overbearing and strong Male personage would laugh their asses off!!!
especially all the woman who daily would like to string me up my Gonads…..
I tell it like it is……I’ve been riding since I could walk. Don’t like it? pass me by. I’m not picking any fights with anybody and no one is required to reply. I was making late night conversation with friends. Any one who chooses to talk with me peacably is a friend. Anybody else can kiss my ass.
Yikes……
Why in the world would you feel that way? (Actually, I wasn’t all that fond at one time either until I owned one and started to know more)
The people turned me off. Like what I am experiencing on here?
Thanks everybody, appreciate it…Sorry I was such a Cranck ass….
Crash: Some things we just don’t talk about among decent people…Hammocks are one of them!!!!!
haha…….
Besides, that’s just beyond cruel and unusual……(certainly beyond unusual to say the least)

How much would you pay? Serious answers only?

He’s 6 years old, broke but hasn’t been ridden a lot in the last year or so. He walks, trots, canters w/o bucking. Backs. Stops. All with a snaffle bit. Its not just what she said I did ride him this evening.

He is registerable paint, I believe, but she doesn’t have the papers and to track them down would be more work then its worth being he’s a gelding and I only trailride. You can see his little tiny white spot on his right side that gives him the right to be called colored. lol. He’s a red dun. About 15.1 or so-I didn’t measure just a guess.

He is UTD on everything but farrier work. I had my farrier come out with me tonight and she said feet are a little flat but not too bad and otherwise in good condition.

He stand quietly tied, accepts fly spray, saddles up easily, easy to handle with feet. Comes running for attention.
He has been professionally trained and the owner now is a trainer but focusing her time on her unbroke ones rather then the rideable ones.
The horse market up here (wisconsin) is varying. Quarter horses and paints-especially the duns, buckskins, and palominos are hot, hot, hot. And just having a horse you can get on and isn’t going to throw you is hard to find (not muchis actually trained)

I have a 3 yr old geld that bites and chews on everything and everyone in the barn, pls help b4 he gets hurt!!

Posted on December 5, 2009 by admin| 10 Comments

He grabs his reins when i ride, nips my boots when i try and turn him, chews lead ropes and cross tieswhen i tie him up and nips at other horses when we ride. He has even pulled fly masks and tail bags off of the other horses in the pens around him and torn them up. I don’t give him anything by hand and he was cut when he was 8 months old. He will occasionly nip at me, but that has decreased with age since he is in full training now. I am worried about him getting hurt more than anything (he grabbed the cord for my clippers while i was clipping him today). Although the chewed lead ropes and broken water pipes from pulled waterhoses is very annoying. I have put every product i can find on his equipment to try and discourage this habit, but he licks everything off. If you have any suggestions, PLEASE HELP!! This is his ONLY bad habit, he is wonderful to ride and has a very quick mind and picks up on everything asked of him immediatly, and there is no way i will be getting rid of him.
