    Newbie in the house

    Hi guys(and gals), I'm new to the forum, and I'm a motorhead of sorts. I just picked up a Motovox MBX10 from a neighbor who was moving out. It was a a basket case...and cheap, but I viewed it as a challenge. I was into go-Karts and minibikes when I was much younger. Perhaps I'm looking to...

    Another ice storm and lots of damage at my house.

    These ice storms are hell, they weigh trees down and then they crash to the ground. I took out five trees early this fall because they were leaning to get sunlight and had stretched across the entire yard perilously, four of the five would certainly have come down right across my power line once...

    Earthquake in Michigan

    Today we had a 4.0 earthquake in Michigan. I was driving home from work and didn't notice it. But my wife called me and said the house shook for a few seconds. Anybody else in this area notice it?

    In house shops??

    Just curious if anyone else works on the mini bike in the house. I have a "shop" in the basement. Difficult to keep odors and such to. A minimum. Especially as I want to learn how to weld....:confused:

    Picked this up from a friend's house last night for free. He said the computer needed a new hard drive. It's some Konami cabinet with an X-Arcade controller. It's currently got a TV that was butchered to make it fit and looks like shit. We're going to stick my roommate's old 19" flat panel...
