How about a meet and work gathering up at Sly Park on Dec. 1 with Friends of Eldorado to trim some brush. It will be easy to get to, and is a very necessary chore. I got this info from them: IT'S AWN!!! December 1st will be the first FOE work-party in ELDO National Forest! We need at least...

Air bump pads gussetted to prevent distortion due to impact: Truss trimmed to fit shock tabs, then tacked: and finish welded WOO HOO!!!! I decided to weld a cap between the truss and the rear face of the housing to cover a gap there. Doing so will avoid collecting mud and rocks...
