Water (drinking) for your Trail Rig (the Hydra)

I can't say enough about having water with you at all times, for your safety and health. Water is the best thing going for us. So OK, it's not the only thing in your ice chest – but it's the most important. And if you want more room in your ice chest, plus want more water along, you gotta get one of these Hydra goodies.

The Hydra from Rompalicious is a perfect alternative to all those pesky water bottles that flop all over the place and out onto the trail without notice. The Hydra holds two and a half gallons of fresh water and straps easily to the back of the seat or on a roll bar so it takes up a lot less room than all those plastic bottles which makes it easier to store more important things like tools and extra parts.

MEGA FIRE GENERATION IS HERE!

WELCOME TO THE (UNNECESSARY) MEGA-FIRE GENERATION Living with Wildfire By Del Albright, Retired Fire Chief (NOTE: originally published in 2020, but the situation has gotten worse instead of better.

Now, we regularly experience 100,000 - 400,000-acre fires. I would like to offer an explanation based on over 30 years of government service, including 26 years with the fire service, and on my beginning my fire career with a Master’s Degree founded in Prescribed Burning. NO! It is not just global warming (climate change). NO! It is not understaffed or ill-trained firefighters. NO! It is not Mamma Nature getting even with our urban sprawl. NO! It is not careless campers or hunters. NO! It is not kids with matches. YES! It is a combination of many things, but mo...

Four E's of Protecting Access

Proven Formula to Protect Access and Save Trails By Del Albright Saving (and sustaining) a trail system, protecting access and keeping our off-pavement motorsports alive and well boils down to a proven formula: Engineering, Education, Enlisting and Enforcement. In the simplest of terms, that means 1) design it right; 2) let people know the rules and how to help; 3) get involvement from as many and varied users as you can; and 4) use trail patrols and if needed, law enforcement officers to ensure the rules are followed. I am borrowing from the fire service all over the country with their fire prevention programs that rely on the three E's -- Engineering, Education and Enforcement. In fire prevention, you design (engineer) a building, house or sub-division in such a way as to minimize the chances of fire. You then educate folks about preventing fires with signs, letters, commercials, school programs and whatever it takes. Then, if that doesn't work, yo...
