Got to get down there and try the bar in the bug. It looks bigger than I remember. Surprised the wind was that steady out of the west, is this normal?
Nate didn't seem to willing to give it up!

Those bigfoot wheels can bind up like that. If they are too sticky, you can add a few pounds of air and they won't roll over and catch so bad. Looks like Nate is having some fun. Not just humoring you by taking a ride. Awesome ride spot. Looks like you could find max speed before having to slow down.
