Lets do it. Plenty other options out there too.martinwalker1 wrote:Great accomplishment. Someone should put together a Maule Mountain Bike Ride. When I lived in Colorado I had a favorite (crazy) ride that we could do. We fly into Leadville airport (easy in a Maule) and bike to Fairplay over Mosquito pass. Return over Weston pass (much easier since it is just a dirt road that can be driven in a car).
I haven't done this ride in around 20 years (when I was in my mid 40s) but I would love an excuse to fly my Maule to KLXV and we know how easy it is to pack a mountain bike in the back. OK. It's on my bucket list now. If I do this flight/ride, I'll take pictures. Would be great to have company.

I may have jinxed myself with that flippant comment. The following day I started getting dizzy and breathless on exertion, finally getting so bad by Friday that I am now getting a pacemaker tomorrow. WTF, it all happened so fast I am in disbelief.truthinbeer wrote:Agreed.pilot wrote:Is there an old cemetery along that route? Some of us may need one if we attend this event.
That is an impressive personal test Rezrider.
When I die I'd like to do so peacefully, in my sleep, not grasping my chest whilst lying in the dirt at the side of some rocky path.
Anyone else got a pacemaker?
Sorry for the O/T.

But, I'll emphasize again, take care of your body and it will take care of you.

I hear what you are saying Rezrider. In this case it's not lifestyle, my electrical system is packing it in. I was body-surfing a week ago so this is a bit of a surprise. I am a bit young for this.Rezrider wrote: Sorry to hear, hopefully it doesn't slow you down.

Yes a good preflight Jeremy. Thanks all for your support.
