The hills were alive with the sounds of dirt bikes!!  It was awesome.  Yesterday's rally at Carnegie State Vehicle Recreation Area (SVRA) was a huge success.  The judge's order to close the park has already had a stay of a couple weeks and we're fighting to get the park back FULLY open in short order. This is one of those bordering on silly situations -- but enough is enough, and silly or not, the OHV community is sick of being pushed around.  The FIGHT BACK attitude is alive and well. Don Amador shows what a hoax this judge's order is... Del and Don in the BlueRibbon booth with local riders who support BlueRibbon and Carnegie SVRA. It was about the kids...and there were plenty of kids in riding gear on the stage to show the press how we want to have something for our kids and their motorized recreation future. Side Note:  no matter what eco-situations we have or don't have on the ground where ever we recreate, it has been proven over and over that WE are ready,...

And I thought my first time with online banking was scarier than jumping out of airplanes in army boots. But no; there's more. United Services Automobile Association (USAA) insurance and banking company just told me how I can now do my insurance stuff AND bank on my Blackberry (or iPhone) and even do DEPOSITS using my phone camera and phone internet. OMG!!! Deposit a check I’m holding in my hand while taking a picture of it with my phone? What's next? Now this post is more than a lame advertisement for USAA, albeit I've been with them for 40 years and I highly recommend them to ANYONE who has served in the military. Yes, they are now open to any and all honorable vets. But this blog is about how we must embrace new technology and apply it to those clients, cu...
