    Poison Ivy

    What do you guys and gals use to get rid of poison ivy? I'm not looking to reduce the itching, as I can keep myself from doing so, I just want the rashes and blisters gone. I tried toothpaste and it seems to be helping right now. Thanks

    Custom Pivot Riser

    I have on order a 5" fly riser along with the pivot adapter for my new 500. I took the 3" sportech from that sled and put it on my 700 due to the nice shiny looking aluminum. I was sitting on my sleds this morning with nothing to do, so I came up with an idea. I headed over to acatzl550's house...

    A tornado a few weeks ago took out a barn a few miles away from me. The motor somehow was blown about 20 feet away from the cement slab it was sitting on while inside of a barn. Farmers had no clue how to get rid of it (too heavy) well, me and 3 other buds took a mustang hood, a few boards and...
