This is Mike's wife. It is my bike by the way, and it is referred to as a "him" not a her. I don't ride no her. Can you believe he tore my bike up? Guess the few scrathes I put on it in the desert is nothing now compared to this, which I got scolded for tearing MY bike up. Of course, I didn't say a word to him about it....now this is Mikie typing....she is a damn liar! she is ONNN me.
 
With ropes attached to the front tire and the footpeg the guys pulled the bike downstream and over the falls to the tree where I ended up.

Here is Onelugnut and Nat with the big orange trout.
