I'm guessing not many bad snakes in Canada where wymbly is riding his DR .

some snakes are pretty cool . south of San Marcos is a place called snake farm . first time I went there I was 12 ..... the outside looks the same now as then . the inside is full of snakes from all over and there is a nice little zoo hidden behind it . took my wife there for our anniversary a...

don't advise handling snakes especially if you don't know what snake it is . Mac 10 seems to understand . I've handled them a few times , mostly when I was a younger man , I know professional snake handlers still get bit. one issue is they are very strong , got to have a sure grip . when I...

I found a rattle snake on a job site one day . so I get out of the truck to check it out . it was just sitting there all coiled up ready for what ever . so I pick up a stick maybe 2 ft long and tap it on its head . rattle snakes have no since of humor . it was pissed . so I take the stick and...

glad to hear you no the value of a snake .... most people around here kill every snake they see .

very cool passing them along for free . not everything is about money . I gave a 1200,00 fishing kayak to a stranger , he helped me (as I'm a stranger to him ) one day when I was in a bind . he really thought I was scamming him at first . don't hang on to stuff to tightly , you will feel better...

looters , scum of the earth . get a rope !

the Wimberley flood was like this , rained miles away , then a wall ripped down stream through Wimberley . still 2 kids missing from that flood . the death toll is now 82 . flash floods , there in a flash .

that video is amazing . the river bed looked a lot like the upper Guadalupe . which has been mostly dry . it empty's into canyon lake . some have drowned in Austin and at least 10 missing there . the thing about flash flooding is it doesn't have to rain on you to kill you . mostly it rains...

the official count when I went to bed was 43 , with lots of missing still. San Antonio lost 13 a few weeks ago in a flood they had . lived here all my life and have seen many floods , seem to happen after dark and on or about a holiday . there are roads that are gone and bridges . destruction...

most of the world has a make do with what you got attitude , 'cause that's how it is . not unusual to see exotic wildlife in Texas , lots of ranches do that . wildebeest caught my attention near Boerne Texas one time .

the DR is better 'cause its radiator will never leak or boil over .

stock Tenere seat felt great in the showroom . just barely better than a DR 650 seat . maybe an hour but for sure have to get off after 2 to let the butt stop screaming . but once that started it was less time before I would be uncomfortable . the Corbin is not soft , but it has a great shape ...

my favorite seat for the 2012 and moved it to the 2019 . you will like it .

generally they don't break , so parts are rarely needed .
