Tires are just some dual purpose DOT tires since we ride on the street at home. I am re-spoking a set of wheels for my 86 and will put some "real" knobbies on it for next year. I am also looking to getting some cartridge emulators for the front forks. My rear shock has a heavier spring, which supports my weight very well but the shock is under damped since it is stock. The rear gets rather bouncy in the rough stuff. It pitched me off once. I feel this year was a test run and I learned a great deal more about solutions, especially by following this and other forums.

Did not make the hot springs, but saw where they were North of Ouray. One of our guys did go to the mineral springs in Ouray.
