Welcome to the Forums...

Yep I used to catch the PBR tour all the time.. now just on occassions I will catch it on TV...

Met a whole group of Bullriders in Tucson one year at a place called Cactus Moon.. drank some beer and shot the **** with them most the night.. they ended up giving a group of us tickets to the local event that weekend...

I used to be a fan when I lived in Tejas, hell I was an occasional rider. I notice the young fellas of today have wised up and wear flack jackets, helmets, mouth guards, elbow pads, knee pads, and athletic cups. It's almost like football.

Yup. Never occured to us to wear helmets back then.

Nimpolake. Interesting handle. Reminds of a place I've always dreamed of renting a cabin: nympho lake.

I enjoy watching. I rode the mechanical bull a few times and damn it made my balls hurt. I enjoyed 8 seconds as well.

Of course I usually root for the bull.

Dr. Pepperhill, Nimpo Lake is actually a real place, half way between Williams Lake and Bella Coola, 8 miles south of The Anahim Indian reservation on the Chilcotin Plateau fed by the Dean River, some of the finest Rainbow and Steelhead fishing in the world, green Doc Spratley drives em wild.
