Wilsons Sandbox

OK, so it sounds like somebody else out there gives their KLR a good work out. It sounds like a similar day I had today with my son and some friends who are more into the dirt than the DS. I can honestly say I continue to be amazed at how good my bike looks after I come home and clean it, put the mirrors back on and get it ready for cruising around my small NE town to soccer games, baseball games for the kids, to the store for beer, etc. My friends seem to be equally amazed that I can hold my own with them in the real severe mud, rocks, hills, trees, stumps, cow pastures, beaver dams, small rivers, and on and on. I plan on taking it on vacation to the White Mountains next week for some cruising on the Kankamangis Highway (spelling?), etc. My wife said she'll even come out for a ride. How's that after a brief 18 years of no riding while raising our two sons. I do sometimes wonder if this is to good to be true. Like all of a sudden is the whole bike going to fall apart or something after the heavy off rode stuff on Sunday afternoon with my kid and friends. Are the wheels going to fall off on Monday while I'm driving down the interstate at 65? I need some reassurance from one of the veteran KLR guys. Assuming of course you read this far into the e-mail. Let me know? Having a blast but concerned in New England. Boblfun@...
