Mar. 02 2008 - Holy Jim Road, Cleveland National Forest: Solo run, no pics, wanted to get some trail rash. I talked to a ranger who was citing vehicles for no Adventure Passes and informed me all 4WD trails were closed in the OC portions of Cleveland due to the recent fires. He said they wouldn't be opened for at least 1 year. Unsatisfied with Holy Jim, I inquired of other trails with the ranger, he suggested I go to the Wildomar OHV area so off I went.

Bo-Beeve was my old BBS nickname back in the day. Most people call me Piper these days. Besides now when I get stuck or fall down after too many sodie-pops, peolpe can have fun quoting the line from "So I Married an Axe Murderer" Said in a Scottish accent: "We have a Piper down... Everyone... We have a Piper down, Ahh don't worry, he's just pissed" (Pissed being British for drunk)

Re: Pipers' FJ TT SE

Man, nothing like getting right into the mods! I am not even thinking of doing any for a while to my TT yet (current use will be mostly for hiking, mountain bike and runs with family camping and light/medium off road).

Congrats

Hey thanks. Yours is also looking sweet! I assume yours was in the driveway with a Hi-Lift on top? I was at my sisters for Easter lunch and we were prolly all out back and din't hear the door. See ya on the trails soon I'm sure.
