    Once I started living down there the summer before I graduated, there was a group of people who would hold time trial style races across the top in the middle of the night! Nothing like doing 100+ on a road thats 9 feet wide with a 600 foot drop on each side... :D

    Sometimes I wonder how I have lived this long!

    Uploading todays Snow Drifting to YouTube now... :)

    Why can you not totally disable the traction control on the R60, its stupid! Even with the system switched off I would still get a flashing TCS light and it would cut power. :(

    Still lots of fun though... Like sledding for adults! :D

    Went down to the other house, through the frozen tundra, and got the plates for the Porker today...

    $770.00, and a tank of gas later, I can now drive it for a year.

    Yeah the first year in CO is always ridiculous! They add all kinds of taxes and fees... Next year they should only be around $600. :(

    Yeah, I cant negotiate price with the state, it is what it is... But sooner or later I can move!

    Think thats bad... Average rent for a single bedroom apartment in the far out Denver suburbs is $950- $1200 a month! When I was stationed at Ft. Campbell it was $400 a month for a 3 bedroom house!

    Someone is smoking the profit. :lol:

    Average price of house in Bend is now over 350K and rents are similarly priced.......

    Not bad for a town with around 90K people.....sheesh

    But we have no sales tax.....yea!

    Yeah we get taxed for EVERYTHING! Not sure what the state income tax is, but yeah we have to pay it, along with public transportation tax to run totally empty busses outside of the city for 12 hours a day.
    All the money made from the pot tax hasnt changed a thing in my wallet... Still broke, and getting broker.
