that's great. I and lived and spent a large chunk of my childhood growing up at outdoor environmental schools that my dad organized and directed.
they where on large camps and schools could come and get there science stuff covered by trained science teachers and they had 10,000 kids a year. since I was home schooled and lived on the camps I could get up early and and get all my school done be 12:00
and have the rest of the day to bike and hike the camps that where over 400 acres of woods, swamps, lakes, and streams. mountain biking was the fastest way to get around. I also had lots of area to play army growing up. with 10,000 kids a year I had a great aggressor force to wage pretend gorilla warfare on<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> its great having a squad (a 12 member group of kids with their cabin leaders) walk almost on top of you as you lay in your your hide site. it was also fun to play capture the flag with the kids in the woods.

GunDog, hope my PM wasn't too harsh for you. I get fed up with knowitalls sometimes (admittedly, I am guilty of it too) especially when I have a buzz on.

JJ, my mountain bike was a Panasonic made to fit me, cost me $1200.00! But was worth it as it was my only transportation back and forth to work and to the commissary and BX. My "Racer" was for fun riding. Longest trip I ever did on it at one time was 50 miles.

It's actually a cop bike. Cannondale designed the Enforement models under a contract with some police department. Pretty good for on and off road/developed trails at least. I have taken it off trail a few time, but the tires are not grippy enough. I could change the tires, but I am on pavement more than dirt and nobbies suck on pavement. Wear you out.

I even tried fast roping from my second story porch as a kid<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

But I love to bike!

I think you have probably hit on the best thing for your medals JJ. AND it will be easily replaceable if it breaks.

LOL. Me and a buddy made a zip line between the two oaks in my backyard in Louisiana when I was 12. Used some steel cable, a turnbuckle and a pulley we found in my dad's shed. My buddy broke his arm when he fell from it. It was hilarious until I realized he was hurt.

I'm using garden shears, leatherman and Elmer's Glue. Everytime I use Elmers, it reminds me of a sing we used to sing in Bible school.

"Stuck together, whatever we do by the Holy Spirit and Elmer's Glue."
