 :o gieger is good, VC and the truck Route are in really bad shape.
      There are also new police aircraft paint crosses on the T. Route so watch out for the prop plain kids.
      Be safe Yo.

You hit the nail on the head, the truck route is very sandy I almost lost it today in a few turns so everybody be careful.

I never could understand this.


pilot $750-1000 a day
plane $$$$$
Gas  $350
2-3 police for the day, one on the plane and one on ground $400-600.


On the VC route you may get a few people a day pushing it, at a $150 ticket.  What justifies this spending?

I think it would have to do with the more rural areas and how one plane can patrol a much wider area than a car. Even though they have a car in the area, the car would never catch as many as a plane could.....just my guess. They must be making money or they wouldn't do it right?.......wait, is it run by the government?....nevermind. They are definitely loosing money.   :D

Maybe it's just a mind game....maybe there is no plane....... ???

Geiger grade is the VC highway, is it clean or dirty? I am confused.

 Yah I don't know if there is a name for everything up top..? Like Mikey said the climb is good but then as you get closer the VC the summit all the way down to bottom of the T. route is sketch.

Ride in the tire tracks on the Truck Route. Gieger is fine, rode it Sunday, no sliding. You might as well get used to riding in the tire tracks as winter progresses and the morons throw tons of dirt all over the roads to quell the cries of the idiots who can't drive. >:( You ever notice that during a winter storm the most vehicles you see run off the roads are SUVs :D

Avgas pushing 5 bucks a gallon...plane burns about 16 gallons per hour at cruise...add in the cost of annual inspection, oil changes and unscheduled maintenance?  Hell, give me a 210 and I'd park it. ::)

Those are the idiots that have 4 wheel drive and 1) Dont know how to tun 4 wheel drive on 2) Think that having 4 wheel drive allows them to drive just like it is a dry road(they take their BAD dry road driving habits and multiple them on wet/snowy roads)
Wait....so 4wd doesn't mean you can slow down just as fast and turn just as easy as being on dry pavement?? Maybe that is my problem......

In my more rebelious days I'd re-paint the airplane marks black. What am I saying I'd do it now if I had a bike.

Better yet black out one and then paint a new one twice as far apart, so you can do twice the speed :)

Or black them both out and paint the middle finger symbol  :-X
