Bob Kelly III
Ranch Kid from way back,.... that got Old !
LOL I'm trying to make my stories SHORT sense you guys have short attention spans but it ain't easy !
sorry for the long winded stories guys ! ..... that's short to me ! HA !
.....
Those same guys rode all over the jones valley campground and tore the hell out of the ground everywhere
now there is NO Motorcycles allowed off road anywhere at the lake..... if your riding along the shore line they can site you !
..... hell , now with the new found powers the game wardens have they can probably shoot ya !
when my buddies and I rode we went out backbone.... no body cared.... or perhaps the lake and stayed on the shore line
not tearing up the country side..... but not everyone does and because those few that didn't the rest of us suffer
.... I rode my 305 dream along the shore line one time took my fishing pole and parked on a point and did some fishing and took a good long dip in the cool water ...it was over 100 degrees that day...... as I'm packing up to leave a patrol boat pulls up and an older pot bellied guy gets out and walks up to me and says Your Robert arn't you ? I couldn't help but be suprised but said Yes I sure am ! who are you?
I can't remember his name right now, but he said His son had a skii-do that wouldn't start..... got it in the boat down there if you wann'a take a look... I said sure..... looking him over I knoticed his sheriff badge right off, and he was obviously on duty.....
it seams that his sons skii-do quit on him in the back of beyond and he went and rescued him..... his son was in the boat too....
we popped the engine cover and looked it over and I saw that the in line fuel filter had crap in it... i mentioned that it may well be plugged...
and the guy went to his big locker and pulled out about 6 more and said what size do ya need ? , he kept a bunch because that was a major reason most boats won't run..... believe it or not he actually had one that was the right size ! I swapped it out in a hart beat and hit the starter..... it took it a while and after slapping my hand over the carb it finally fired up the son was elated ! and jumping for joy
the sheriff and I were laughing so hard by the time we got it all buttoned up and back in the water we were both shaking our heads
he was about 12yrs old.....the kid hits the starter and it fires up and he's up skiing on that thing in a flash.....
I said Dam man that looks like allot of fun ! the sheriff said oh it is but the things that kid can do on that thing scares me to death !
I said I don't doubt it ! ..... he asked how much he owed me and I said for what ? heck I just lent a hand ! you don't owe me a thing.
we walked back to the bike and he told me of the recent new laws that you cannot ride your bike on the shore line anymore I was dumbfounded ! so he explained why.... he said some guys on Big yellow suzuki 2 strokes tore the hell out of the entire campground
we had chp sheriff and helicopters looking for them bastards but never did find any of them.....
I said Oh really ! well, I may know them..... I will tell them to steer clear of jones valley..... And the shore line ! he smiled and said you do that !
I told Opie, the guy on the Yamaha 360mx about it and he told them.....
I never saw them again.... last I hurd they were terrorizing the other side of town ! ..... driving over cars that were too slow and stuff like that....
...... I can't abide that kind of behaviour..... not then and not now..... I'ed shoot'em ! lol
but I learned just because they have a bike don't make them good people ! ( that took a while to sink in though) HAHAHAH
