I don't know the story, area, etc. It popped up in my feed & I thought of you. Dogs love to roll in the vilest, nastiest $hit they can find. Then they want to run up to you for petting!

Mine was a horrid little things. I once drove home from detecting with him in the boot (trunk) of my car he stunk that much!
Had a look, yeah that was the Bendigo one. Detected for yrs and finds his best bit just going for a walk with the family, I need to get out more! 😄

You are quite astute Evan, even getting the desert rat part of it! (I did desert races as well as mx)

This is about half of my bikes. The other half are in my other house down south, where I am unfortunately unable to be at the moment. Yeah, I have a bit of a bike problem.

Hell yeh!!!
I learned on a trail 90, next was an XR500. Friends had RM 125's and elsinore's. I then got a KX500 pure insane bike. turned 16 street bike time! My dad's CB350-4, then a GS750 ...1977 maybe? Friends had Kawasaki Z1's I countered with GPZ550, then a 900 ninja.

Currently looking for a street legal enduro bike KTM 640 etc. Test rode a KLR650 gutless wonder older model though.

We keep hearing about a Christmas tree shortage this year. Some of our undercover officers were out driving and came across this amazing farm. They jumped out to see how much the trees were, and the lot attendant ran away (it's hard to find good help these days). We will let you know if they are a good price once we can find the lot owner. They are so green and bushy!
Have a safe and happy holiday season everyone!

I had a couple of friends that went to this...I can only wish!!
They bought bodies, necks and parts galore. Luckily some of it they sold to me. 1989 or 1990.

That white 1970 Yamaha AT1 125 is the bike I learned to ride on at 11 years old. I completely restored it early this year.
I recently sold my Suzuki DR650SE (great dual sport btw) and bought a Husqvarna FE350 that's street legal (barely) right from the factory. It's light and agile and will smoke my Honda CRF450R. Been very impressed by it. They make the same bike with bigger displacement also.

You can hear them from a mile away. 40 + feet high!

A couple of pics were enhanced.

No problem with to many nice bike like those, I see some nice Yamaha classic there too. I was thinking to put my old CR in the living room as a display.. I can do that because I’m single. Lol

My wife thought I was nuts with all the bikes and then one day 2 years ago she told me she wanted to learn to ride. I gave her some instruction and she practiced and got her license early this year. She has bought four bikes since, and bought this 1958 Ducati at the Mecum auction...for the living room

!
Ya never know what a girl is gonna do next!

I looked up the FE's, nice! Spendy too...A little much maybe? Wife saved all of my tickets from my street bike days... excessive tire noise, excessive display of power (wheelies) careless driving and a few 100 MPH plus tickets!

I don't buy new bikes anymore. I have a big problem paying all the taxes, doc fees, assembly fees, etc.
I picked up the 2018 Husky for $4,800 with only 23hrs on it.

The day I turned 16 I already had 18 tickets. The cops in Stockton all knew me.

Hi. Yeah I see them all as I scroll but its seeing bit by bit that triggers my dry humour a lot of the times.

I liked the KTM 640 adventure a lot, and low miles used for sure! I can rebuild engines so a "needs work" might be a possibility
