It is called Endurocross. It is kind of a new thing. I can't believe those were pro riders I or any of my kids could do better than any one of those women.

The X Games gets a few good riders, but mostly it is all the riders that couldn't make it in motocross, so they do the X Games. They can party and do all the drugs they want and not have to worry about staying in shape for motocross.

Being I use to race supercross and motocross, I think you guys are giving these gals zero credit.

Although I will admit I have seen pee wee riders look more skilled then this highlight reel, I think you under estimating the difficulty of the obstacles. I would pay to watch you guys do it and make the girls look like pros wink

except for rushing, he has whizmical powers that just makes him good at whatever he does. its weird.

You guys remember when the Summer X-Games was street luge, skysurfing, rock wall climbing, and others I've forgotten about?? I know I'm going back aways but the X-Games has been about some pretty obscure "extreme" sports that get their 5 minutes of fame. Some catch on... some don't.

Id say this event is harder then the motocross or supercross. Yes motoX and SuperX you have speed jumps and crashes. But it is extremely difficult to maneuver obstacles on a motorcycle. And the amount of abuse your body takes is crazy!

I remember a guy telling me how nascar required more skill and endurance then motoX. I kindly invited him to come ride my bike on a track for 30 mins. They never showed up to the track lol

I know how hard it is as I have ridden all my life. I have watched endurocross as well and just thought this wasn't a good example of it. I don't know if these X Games racers were the normal ones that race endurocross, but I expected them to be better.

I am the first to admit it was pretty lame and cheesy riding, But I have never done a "course" like that. But I have been on wooded trails, sand trails, gravel trails, woodchip trails, all which had trees, rocks, water features, jumps, ruts and everything else.

It is not as easy as it looks. Anyone who thinks it is, go find a bike to ride for a day, and enjoy the next day moping around laying on the couch because you cant move.

bahahahahahaha!!! That's like saying golfers are in as good of shape as wide recievers, and that being good at call of duty takes just as much skill as being a SEAL

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
