I'm sorry to hear this Kurt. It sounds like he lived very good life.

Stay safe and thank you.

Flying J truck stops and hard tails

hanging out under the bridge just before you got into Index drinking a 4 Loko after hangdogging my way up Davis Holland with Jeff who climbed it in his usual good style

post climbing hanging out along the Wenatchee in the canyon, drinking beer and throwing rocks in the water with my newb hands all scratched to fuck

after flying down blasting down Porcupine Rim, drinking cold water out of Matrimony Springs

i was in a VW bus, headed up into the mountains past Pendleton, or the flat land past Boise, with my friends and the bus loaded with mountain bikes headed for Moab with big open skies ahead

*rim slap* https://www.northwestpaddling.net/paddle-clubs I have a friend that races kayaks and there are a number online communities. I'm not sure, but I think he was on a Yahoo group, but I think they moved to here (he is from Bellingham): https://groups.io/g/Whatcompaddlers But that is for racers I think, not sure that helps a newb. I am not the person to ask beyond that info.

i'm sure there some people that post here or used to that are into spanking....

Agree with what Jason is saying, but it also depends on what your are carrying, sometimes even with a rack that is "designed" for a vehicle or a gutter mount. Lost an aluminum Grumman and another canoe coming back from the Bowron years back...huge bummer. Big crosswinds got us and overwhelmed the gutters, the canoes were basically kites. Luckily the vanagon (with my son and his friend in it) didn't tip over too...was scary to watch that unfold, the vanagon up on two wheels in the wind. Luckily the gutters did fail and the canoes found the ditch. Anyway yeah you might be able to make it work, but shit may also end up in the ditch depending on conditions or the load.

just awesome

damn scammers...if they created a CC.com account PM me with the account info.
