Ok Dino, it's on! I don't imagine we'll be slipping around any.

Sorry, I should have clarified my usage of the term "insurance". I was not referring to personal insurance, rather event insurance. You know, that stuff that events have to have to get permits from the BLM and other government agencies.

Yes, stupid people do stupid things, nothing can stop that, and so forth. But in the interest of looking good to event insurance, this type or record/activity doesn't do us any good.

In case anyone cares about those sort of things.

I have to agree with Geokite.I don't really care if people decide to do something unsafe it's there choice.But I'm sure the insurance companies do and will not hesitate to increase our premiums if something happens.I do care about how much I have to pay to get out and enjoy what I love to do.
In short let people do what they want ,but we should not sanction it as an organised group.
Just my opinion.:alien:

Irrelevant post, deleted

I rode motorcycles for well over 20 years. I rode all year round in Newengland. I never crashed and I was never injured in all those years. I also never attempted to jump over 18 buses, a tank of sharks, or the Snake river canyon.
On the same scale I have been buggying for 4 years plus. I have never attempted to set or break a record. Want to know how many times I have crashed or been hurt. It's frightening and I let my son do it as well.
There really isn't a choice to be made. I am one of the most cautious people you are gonna meet here. And yet I get hurt doing this. For me it is worth it just to have met all the other lunatics doing this too. So as always I have gone way off course with this one but my point is. If you get rid of the category on PTW's list are people going to stop doing it? NO they will still do it and folks will still get hurt. All we can do as a group of at least semi intelligent people is push for safety gear and safe behavior. Lets all have some fun.
And now back to your scheduled programing already in progress.

That's what friends are for....
:wee:

Hours later and it's still freaS-P-A-M-L-I-N-K-n funny!!I looked because I needed a pick me up after this morning.
Has Ripp not been back here about this yet? Or did he change his name here to now?

call me what you want, as i just finished getting all the video and pics and gps image together on the mac

it will shut you all up ... i know what i did and have achieved with my GF at Alvord.

new record stands and evidence as required will be sent to PTW first for approval.

It's just a big boast to make this statement, then vanish for 2 weeks with no pics, no vids, and no follow up posts. It made your OP look like a hoax.

Sorry I have a life outside of the forum.

Between work, bugging, travel and court crap. There isn't much time to sit on the Internet.

Anyone wanna question my credibility? Go look on PTW for my speed, all the events I attend. Driven with most of you in the past.
I didn't get here from sitting on a forum.

Go Vimeo my movies from the past.

Information is still your old run. I look forward to seeing the new stats.

Thanks rip, I'm sure event organizers will appreciate it!

maybe it won't make a difference, I could be wrong.

Wow... Life beyond the internet??? Really?

How does that happen?

I didnt know there was a bus that stopped at Alvord

sorry couldn't keep it in :saint:

Just checked the PTW site erratic posted above,... Still no change, but hopefully your new record will post up soon, Rips....

Of all things, I do understand how life interrupts everything else.

Congrats to you.

You're not really sorry are you?

Rip I personally am glad to see you posting again. Where ever your life is heading and what you are doing is yours. I look forward to seeing this on the list if all works out. If not I have no reason to disbelieve your achievements in the past. Lets all see what the future brings and enjoy the ride.
