I know exactly what you mean Eric. During hunting season, deer and moose grow a brain and use it. You have a hell of a time finding a freaking deer or moose when the season is open. Otherwise, you're almost tripping over them - deer that is. Moose are nowhere near as common as they used to be. When the deer move in, they spread a brain worm parasite that moose are not immune to. The deer can live with it but the moose can't. Therefore, less moose around when deer are present. Did I tell you that I don't like deer. Rats with horns I tell you. Don "E.L. Green" wrote:

So now I'm wondering if I'm going to be comfortable riding in front during our trip. I may just have to get used to eating dirt.

Your right, we have the same problem here, I am a service manager for a place that sells the chinese knockoffs. Some of the are very good, almost up to japanese quality, some ar no better than paper weights. But, if ya know what to look for, and what your getting, then you can get a decent deal. If you are going to purchase any of them, and have any questions, fell free to ask, and Ill let ya know what kind of issues we have had in my shop. BJ
