I know this is last minute, but if anyone has tomorrow off and wants to do a little offroading/dualsporting, then speak up.
I wanted to head out to Greenridge tomorrow, I have two people who might go, but nobody has given me a definant.
Anybody else interested?

Phil,
I am on DAMNriders.org injured reserve at the moment. I broke me toe. Keep me posted in the future.

Didn't feel safe going by myself, so I went over to Ken's garage for some wrenching.
The DR now has turnsignals after going w/out them for 3-4 years, and an awesome new tool holder mounted up.

Re: Monday riding?
Any pictures of this tool tube? I've been noodling the idea on many past bikes and would love to see how you mounted it, and where you found the actual tube.
I've looked at "tractor manual holders" for such use.

For what it's worth, I don't need to carry tools, rather telescopic fishing rod and small qty of tackle.

Re: Monday riding?
Only problem I've seen with those tractor tubes is they tend to shatter under pressure, especially when cold. Make sure it's mounted somewhere it won't take a hit when the bike is dropped or you'll be finding your tools scattered on the side of the trail.
Re: Monday riding?
I'll put a picture up this weekend.
Yeah, Ken and I discussed the possibility of the tube getting damaged in a wreck. However, there wasn't a whole lot of good options on where to put it w/ out taking up the majority of the small rack behind the seat.
