Well, welcome back to the Life Wide Open podcast. We're joined by a little bit different of a crew today. We got Ken behind the keyboard back there, Mike over here, Gavin, three-wheeler Gavin, and Ev. But you know what? I want to skip all the BS today, and I want to dig in to what matters. Gav, you found the girl of your dream last night. What are we talking about, Ry? Do you remember meeting her at the bar? We'll start with saying yes. Okay, so...
Last night, Gav was talking to this nice lady and, you know, they were getting along, all that, right? Nothing too out of the ordinary. And then she happens to mention that she owns a power sport dealership and sells Hondas.
And I watched Gavin roll around on the floor in shock because he was so excited. Honda's man. I don't know what to say about that, but she was talking about the red stuff and I got carried away. So Gav, what, what, what did you think?
When someone comes to you and they say, yeah, I am actually a dealer. I'm a fun dealer of Hondas. You know, I start off with getting mad because they don't sell three-wheelers anymore. That's what I was going to say. Yeah, that's not cool. So then we start into that conversation. They tell me they're too dangerous, and then nothing goes good after that.
So you dropped the ball on the woman of your dreams. Every time, technically, yeah. She wasn't the woman of his dreams because she doesn't sell three-wheelers. That's that. I mean, what are the odds you meet a girl that's like, yeah, I got a power sports dealership. We mostly just deal three-wheelers. I mean, you'd have to get on a knee. Duh. I mean, yeah. Instantly, yeah. 100%. But I did think, man, I overheard that conversation. I was like, man, Gav's got to be on cloud nine right now. I didn't even know what to say. What do you say?
Marry me. It's been a ripper of a weekend. We finally got the Hummer pontoon to the sandbar. Back on the water, but to the sandbar, it was an hour trip to the sandbar and it was honestly one of the most epic experiences of the summer. A true voyage. Yeah. I tried to not...
be too overbearing with my nervousness, but I was so anxious the entire time you're, you're driving that thing. And I felt a little bit of responsibility being it's my car that nobody's paid me for. And I'm listening to the, to the welds cracking and popping on the Hummer as we're floating over 30 feet of water in the middle of the windy Lake. It was
The most nerve wracking thing we've done in months. At least we had the AC and the jams tuning, man. I'll tell you that. That's true. I think that's what everybody brought up when they see that. You still got AC in that thing? I was like, of course. Heated seats too for when it gets cold. And it was really awesome to like see like everybody was driving by to wave and thumbs up and take pictures. But they all just kicked up a big wake for us to have to navigate in this pontoon. I know that was the worst part. Every boat would come running.
right at us and which was fun you know it's fun like waving everybody and it was fun being on a a boat that drew attention but basically we were trying to avoid waves because the waves are the enemy of that pontoon thing everybody would just drive right by at like 10 miles an hour and just kick up the biggest wave and every time a wave would hit it you hear the wells go
And it was flexing. It was bad. The aluminum was flexing so bad. Like I could tell Ryan, you know, you were stressing pretty good, but you also weren't projecting too much. I was trying not to. Like I could tell and I tried to be a little reassuring. Like, it's aluminum. It's got some flex. That was a funny conversation. Yeah. I was all assuring him. Yeah, it's supposed to flex. Ryan comes back saying, I just hope it doesn't flex too much. It doesn't come back. No, that's what it was. You go, aluminum can flex. And you're like, yeah, until it breaks. Yeah.
So we're coming into the access. It was a little chaotic, right? There's people that are pulling their boats in. Some people are pulling their boats out, all that. I got Evan Gav on the tiller. This is so good. The dream team. The dream team. Oh, come on. Give me a break here. The dream team of your worst nightmares. We're coming in hot because we knew the four-wheel drive doesn't work that well in the Hummer, and we knew we were going to have to hit the access hard to make it up. This boat pulls right out in front of us. In that moment,
Gav panics and then hands the tiller over to Evan. Correct. Hit the shoreline crooked, all this tomfoolery. Well, anyway, during that moment, I was holding onto my phone, you know, kind of got my screen must've gotten unlocked. Anyway, I accidentally called big wrench.
our mechanic at about 6 30 in the afternoon and we never call him when he's not here for when there's not any yeah it's always an issue we call we go hey man like a big wrench we need help with this thing so as i can assume he's sitting at his son's baseball game and the phone rings and he sees ryan's calling and he goes ah he knew what we were doing yeah he knew what we were doing i think he was a little nervous about it too and i gotta imagine he just sat back in his chair went
And so it turns out he, two's going down. And I go, oh, hey, Brian, how's it going? And he goes, hey, what's happening? Because in the background, all he heard was Evan and Gavin screaming at each other. The Hummer revved out to the moon. The tiller revved out to the moon and us scraping and banging into the dock and land. You knew he picked up that phone and had a panic attack, dude. Oh,
You got Ben watching the whole thing. Yeah, I can't imagine from Big Wrench's perspective. I mean, just like when the outboard comes out of the water and it's over revving and then we got tires burning, we have pontoon scraping on concrete, and then like a lot of hollering. And then what tops it off is Gab on the tiller first and going, Evan, I'm scared. You do it. You do it. You do it.
to give it full throttle but I didn't want to hit the ground and then everyone's like who cares if we hit ground I was like yeah that's a good point I don't know why you were so scared of that thing Gav dude that's a big 115 horsies right there getting ready to run up on some concrete a little scary I mean clearly you blacked out when it mattered but we had a plan you were gonna run the throttle and I was gonna run the trim
It didn't work out that way at all. It didn't pan out. I think that was two men on a one-man job right there for sure. No one wanted full responsibility for that. No, we would have gotten stopped. Me and Gav would have just been pointing at each other. It was him. He was touching the motor. Yeah, one of many shenanigans we do have planned, and it went well. Honestly, thank the good Lord above that we didn't sink. I mean, seriously.
That was just my thought. It wasn't like a... It was like a good or a bad situation, you know? It either goes well, as in we make it there and we make it back, or, you know... You can thank the Lord for getting us through that one, but I'm giving a shout-out to Big Ranch.
Yeah, I think that was far more than he ever expected that Hummer would be put through. Yeah, I mean, we have the pond. Yeah, we'll put it in the pond. It'll be cool. It'll float. Yeah, I don't know if he knew that was going to happen. And then after it went well, we're like, we're going to Big Cormorant. We're going to take it out on the big lake. And he was like, wait, wait. Well, I don't know about that.
But it worked flawlessly, so that's pretty great. Well, now we've got to figure out a way to get two motors on, man. We've got a wakeboard behind us. Oh, it isn't fast enough for you now, Gavin? Well, dude, I want to see it come up the plane. That's what I want to do. Come over the wake and start. To be honest, it's not fast enough. Is there no chance? No, it's not. But Hummers aren't fast on land, let alone in water. I mean, that's a good point.
That's a lot of weight to try and get out of the water and on plane. I mean, that's heavier than our Centurion. When you say on plane, that is the biggest factor. I was like, why is this thing so slow? It's because it doesn't plane out like a boat. Yeah, because it has a hummer dragging between. So what would happen if the tires weren't on it? It would help. Oh, you wouldn't be able to drive it down the road. It wouldn't be as good on land. Okay. I did think about that. If you almost had an any level type of lift that could suck the tires up,
And then you could really get going if you built like a skid plate and then an any level lift that sucked the tires up. It'd be pretty great. Let's just say our Hummer pontoon with an unlimited budget would be something, something of an awe. I almost think though that anything we add to it almost takes away from what it truly is. Yeah. A Hummer with pontoon. That's it. It's strapped to it. It is what it is. When you say it like that, it probably should only go five miles per hour. Exactly. It's perfect.
So a little bit of a transition then into our sooner shenanigans coming this week. Like we're going to try to do the snorkel three wheeler, which Gavin has done four times now. I kind of want to pick your brain about what explain what that is and how you came up with the idea and kind of the first thing.
Like things that you ran into trying to literally scuba dive a three-wheeler. All right. So it all started when I figured out the power of a Honda. These things are indestructible. I mean, I sunk it down in the river one time. I was like, oh, shit, I ruined this thing. And then I pulled the plug, let the air box dry a little bit, fires right back up. You can't kill them. All right. So that's where the first train of thought came. And then it was like, I want to go deep with this. I want to go further. And then I was like, ah, let's go across the lake.
Now we're here. So I want to do 10 feet, at least probably 10 feet from the air box to the top of the water or whatever. So we're working on setting up our snorkel kit. Gav, be honest with me. How much time did you put into your snorkel? It looked like you spent six and a half minutes on it. No, that's the disrespect. Hey, hey, six and a half. Based on the explanation you just gave me, I feel like I laid out the most beautiful question for you. And you're like, yeah, went underwater. Hondas are sick. What?
No, no, yeah. So then the idea came that we just want to go really deep with it. And so we're going to attach the snorkel right to the air box, go 10 feet up, 7 feet up, whatever we can, and drive fully underwater. Because it's a Honda. I mean, it'll stay running. So the biggest thing that we did have problems with was being able to stay on the bottom. So then when we added the tank tracks, our other problem was that we couldn't get the front tire to stay down. And so we tried to fill it with water, couldn't find a guy to fill it with water for us.
So, Randall's sandbags didn't work out, and now we're here. Oh, so the front tire, being that they are big on three wheelers, had that much buoyancy? Oh, even deflated all the way. Yeah, still trying to pop up on you. And then my lake isn't like a lake out here. It'll just drop right down, and then it'll be a weird divot, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. We're out here. It's going to be nice and smooth gradually going in, so that's what's going to help huge as well. So you have confidence in this. This out here with standing on the sandbar and stuff today and seeing what your beach is like, yeah, we got this.
I mean, and another fun thing for me was, okay, where do we get scuba gear? We looked it up. You know, we're pretty good. Everyone gets on their phone. Where do we get scuba gear? You got to pull some shenanigans. I pulled some shenanigans. Go ahead. Let me hear what you guys are thinking. How are we doing this? So then I was like, okay. So Gav, being in Colorado, like was able to rent some, but obviously you had to look around too. Well, we, I didn't know this. This is a cool factor and a scary factor. We ordered like scuba gear off of Amazon. It's not real scuba gear.
But it's like you could order like a tank that you can fill up and that you can also order the thing to refill it and all this. And I was like, I mean, it wasn't cheap, but I'm like, you can just get this off Amazon. Why is no one talking about this? Well, that's the thing. So I called the scuba shop, right? And we've kind of had a couple of run-ins with them before, you know, at different events. So I thought, we're like, hey, you know, we got a little friend on the inside. He'll be cool about it. I had no idea scuba people were so protective. Right.
over their sport. Oh, man. We had to pull some shenanigans, man. We told one shop. Oh, gosh. I hope they don't want to tell them. Oh, yeah. No, yeah. We use this for an air cannon. And then we just had to go use the other. We had to go get the BBMC or whatever it's called for the BPC. I think it's called for BBC. Yeah.
No, but then we would just tell them that we're using it as a prop or whatever, and then we'd put both and both together. Really? Yeah. See, I called my guy, and I said, I have my buddy coming out from Colorado. He's only here for just a few days. You know, we're going to be really crunched for time. It'd be great if I could come and pick up the scuba gear prior to him coming. Well, is he scuba certified? And I go, oh, yep, yep. He's got his certification. He does out in Colorado all the time. You know, out in Lake Mead and all that. He's scuba diving.
I had a whole story built up and I was like, he's going to buy this for sure. He goes, yep, yep. That sounds so great. I can't wait to meet him and talk scuba. Just have him bring in a certificate. And I go, no, no, no, no. We don't have enough time. I better just come in and pick it up before he goes. Why? I'm like,
I can't send out the scuba gear without a certification. Dude, they're crazy about it. They are. It's a tank of air. It's free. That's what I said. We're going to hook them up to a fucking welding tank and send them down there and hope it works. Gosh. Well, that's what I think. I think the thing that keeps them in business is, you know, dudes with Tippmann 98s trying to fill their CO2 tanks to shoot more paintballs. You know, like,
Like, I don't think they're filling that many scuba tanks or renting out that many, but I'm surprised by that. Not in this neck of the woods. No, no. Surprise that. He needs your certification. That's how they are. They don't want us just going down looking for the Titanic with no certification. Dude, too soon. I wasn't supposed to say, not like that. Don't you remember what happened? They exploded. Ah, Evan, get with it. They imploded. Cripes. I'll drink to that. Gavin, do you ever feel a little self-conscious?
About like possibly filming anything that's maybe questionably illegal in your videos.
Do you ever feel like you're going to get jammed up? Obviously, right? 100%. I feel like I'm going to get jammed up all the time. I feel like rappers can get away with talking about illegal shit and just not get in trouble for it. What's up with that? Some of them get jammed up. As of late, yeah. Oh, they're cracking down on the rappers? I mean, the whole Young Thug thing. Yeah, Young Thug for sure. He got like a Rico charge, which was literally invented to combat mobsters. What?
I feel like that's pretty extreme. Allegedly, they're running some sort of operation such as that. Big things. I don't know. You got to be careful, though. You got to be careful. I was scrolling through TikTok, and there is actually this TikTok rapper. And he straight up did a whole video. Oh, wait. It says this video is unavailable, so it was taken down. So we won't be able to watch it. If I can find it.
I'll put it back up. But this, this rapper is rapping exactly how to do credit card fraud. Tommy G just did a video with the dude. Yes. Yes, he did. And he step by step the whole thing. I have a hard time. Like,
It seemed very like authenticious. Yeah. Authenticious? Define. Good word. Authentic. I don't fucking know. Today's episode is brought to you by Angie. Angie has made it easier than ever to connect with skilled professionals to get all your jobs and projects done well.

I have fully done things around the home that I think look good and then a bang in the night and I wake up to a shelf collapsing, a painting falling off the wall. Like it, I've seen it all go south. I own a home and I can tell you, I know how much work it can take. Whether it's everyday maintenance and repairs or making dream projects a reality, it can be hard just to know where to start.

Right now, one of my wish lists is I want a bike for my condo in Milwaukee and I would love to rig it up on a pulley in the ceiling because I have one of those like lofted ceilings.

because when it comes to getting the most out of your home you can do this when you angie that download the free angie mobile app today or visit angie.com that's angi.com but no it seems so legit but like i don't see the guys like not masked up he's not like and he's just telling you like and he's i don't know they're just like doing it on film like watch this like transaction boom boom swipes the fake card goes in buys free pizza yeah i'm like this doesn't
You can't, and it wasn't even a good rap song. Like it was actually more of just a lyrical way of telling you how to commit credit card fraud. No, I love that. Like the fact that he's then exploiting like, okay, well if you can say like, you know, I got guns and stuff and I got, I got this and that all legal things. Then he's like taking it 10 steps further and just be like, I'm going to tell you how to do something illegal to a T and then see what happens. Might, might've been an experiment, but,
I'm sure he's not trying to get arrested, but it almost seems like it's a social experiment. Can I make this fly? It's a bold move. It's a very bold move. It's just kind of testing the boundaries probably, you know, filling out what you can do. Yeah, but you, like, test the boundaries. You hit the boundary, and you're all jammed up for a long time. Yeah. Of all crimes to, like, go down for, it just wouldn't be credit card fraud, which, again, is just stealing. Stealing is, like, one of the more, like, I can't make it on my own, so I'll just steal your money. It just isn't.
You just can't do that one. Yeah. I don't like that. You can't steal from the working man. No. Maybe like a Snickers from Walmart. Like, I won't judge you too hard. I'll never do it, but I wouldn't be mad. But if I find out you, like, stole a bike from someone's front yard, you're a piece of crap. Yeah. You don't do that. Tell him, man. Tell him. Hey, I don't like thieves, and I don't like litter bugs. Yeah. There's no reason to litter. Nothing worse than thieving. No. I agree.
There's nothing quite worse than it. Besides, like, serial killers, there's nothing worse than people that just steal from the working man. Have you ever with me when I did this? But I got a call the other day from the Clay County Sheriff's Office. And, you know, it gave me flashbacks to, like, when I was younger. I'd get a call from the sheriff's department, and they would, you know, it would be something that I was, like,
maybe potentially involved in. Nothing crazy. Like having your subwoofers too loud. Yeah, yeah. It's like, hey, were you with the fellas that were throwing fireworks at the park? You know, stuff like that. Okay. But anyway, flashbacks to that. But I'm getting a call from the Clay County Sheriff's Department. I'm like, well, I was like, dude, answer it. It's going to be, just answer it.
So I answer it. It was like the jail recording, like press button to accept call. So then, yeah. So then it was like press button to accept call for the jail. I'm like, okay, well, cool. Someone in jail is calling me. This is so how Mike would answer the phone. It was so great. I go, you know, hello. And he's just like, hey, you still, are you still with dad?
And I just, oh man, did I ever want to troll him? Did I want to roll that with, you know, but I couldn't waste his minutes. Oh, that was his next thing. He just goes, I just added four more minutes.
You still with dad? And I was like, listen, you got the wrong number. Hang up. Call who you got to call because you only got three now. Someone from jail called you? And it happened so quick. Like that quick. Like he said, are you with dad? I'm out of, I got four minutes. And I was like, oh, wrong guy, right? And he's like, boop. You know, assuming that, yeah, he was like, well, fudge. Why did I dial the extra zero or whatever? We kind of just like, it was like,
What was that? What just happened? It was just too good. I'm just like picturing you being in jail, someone, and trying to call your dad or your sister or your mom or your loved one, your significant other, and just messing up a number. Ending up with Micah. Yeah. It can't be that easy to get minutes in there. I mean. No. You got to get money somehow. God knows what he had to do to get those minutes. Seriously. Only God knows.
not good gav talk to me rye did you really spend 24 hours on your wheeler i did not leave that bad girl once i i pooped on it i slept on it i ate on it on it or next to it oh he's off it on it dude what do you want to see what do i have to show you to prove no no it was so gnarly but i did not leave that three i blew up a break right too
She was ticking, but yeah, I ran her for probably six hours all through the hills. I thought you couldn't kill a Honda. Well, this one, I... When you don't do an oil change and the spark plug looks like freaking... That's been your sales pitch. You don't need to change the oil and the spark plug doesn't matter. All right, we don't want to talk about it. And yeah, so blew the motor and then midnight came around, all right, hop on the next big red. So hopped on another big red. Sadly, that one is a little bit smaller.
And I somehow slept on that thing for about 15 minutes. Wait, did you keep it running the whole time? No, no, no. We turned it off. We turned it off. That was my favorite part when you were like, I actually, we were like, well, what did Ty do? Filmer, your buddy, Ty. What did Ty do? Well, he stayed in the truck right next to me. And you're like, I actually got more sleep than them because they forgot to bring sleeping bags. Those freaking idiots. They were like,
They were like, oh, we're starving. I'm over there with my beef jerky or whatever freaking happier than hell. No, that was too good. Like the fact that they came unprepared. Yeah. Like they could have brought anything and rubbed it in your face yet you're rubbing in their face. And I was in luxury. Well, not really, but yeah. And then the next morning that
That was brutal. Just because we woke up. It was 7 o'clock, 6 o'clock, whatever it was. We're like, all right, we want to be done at noon. Well, we didn't start until 4 the previous day. So we had to go all the way until 4. You had to go all day? What the hell did you do? Dude, we got a game of baseball rolling. We just had a good day with the fans.
with the fellas, man. I mean, that's what it's about is getting outside with your friends and having fun, honestly. And that's Gav's sales pitch. So look, look, look. Check it out. So look, this is doing the wheelie right here. Going up. Sorry, fellas. And then look, sleeping in the sleeping bag. I'm giving you the breakdown right here.
Okay, sleeping, sleeping, doing the wheelie. More riding, of course. More riding. Okay, look, there's the baseball right there. Oh, I didn't miss that. See? And then look, I got a good look at the, you like the swing? I'm just more impressed you didn't crash this entire 24 hours. Yeah, right. That's what the title should have been, is not crashing my three-wheeler for 24 hours. Damn, that's pretty good, huh? Yeah, last two hours were definitely getting scary because we were still riding around, but I was like, ah, whatever.
whatever right off the bat you did almost crash would you have started over would you cut that clip oh i had to start it over just yes because we were probably two hours in and just to prove to myself i can stay on this three-wheeler for 24 i know i could actually do probably longer than i could do 36 hours that'd probably be where i'd be really sick of it true story i really respect that out of you but why
Because why not? Content, baby. Content, baby. No, if it makes you. And I don't know. That's probably something. As a kid, just dumbass little Gavin just having fun. What would I want to do? I want to stay up and sleep on my big red. Yeah. Why not, right? I don't know, man. I spent so much time with my three-wheelers, and I'm just like, oh, why not spend a little bit more? Did you have to spend some time apart? No. Well, I was able to. Shut up. I could stand up. I could do everything. But afterwards, you just went back like everything was normal? Yeah. Yeah.
What do your other three-wheelers think? I'm not happy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 250R wasn't having a good time. Old baby girl. You've been kind of bad to her, though. Do you want to talk about that? What do you think about that? I think you ruined a piece of art. Dude, you know I was going to ruin it the minute you saw me hit that freaking water hole in Moab. You know? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I...
No, honestly, I knew before you even had it that it was going to go south. It's still running great, though. I mean, that power band's still there. She's still wanting to fight. Oh, yeah. You never had to fix it? Oh, no. I still need to put a base cast in it, but that's it, though. Yeah.
Honestly, though, I would have been more disappointed if you didn't ride it and you didn't beat it up. And that's all I was thinking about, especially at Trike Fest. I was like, what would Ryan say to me right now? Treat it like it's a dirty princess. And that's what was in my head the whole time. I mean, dude, I rolled that out on the race or whatever. I hopped right back on it. I don't know why we never posted a clip of it, but the front brake was locked up, but I didn't notice it.
And oh, yeah, I didn't know what was going on. My wheel's not spinning. You didn't know it was? Exactly. Just wait. I couldn't tell it wasn't spinning because the back was just going like this. I was like, shit, I blew an axle out or something. I don't know what's going on. I thought I bent it too much. Center south. And turns out, yeah, the front's all locked up. I'm all trying to help back in the race. Front's going boom, boom, boom. And then I crash again or whatever. Something happens. Some guy runs over. Dude, you know your brake cable's just jammed up. Twisting. That was fine. Finished the race? Finished the race. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did you win? No, no. Third place for my first race ever. Yeah, last place, actually. Oh, there was three people? For the 250R class. Three people. Yep, yep. I appreciate you for prefacing that there's only three because there's a lot of fellas out there that wouldn't. They go, yeah, yeah, it wasn't too bad, third place. And then we'd go, dude, not bad for your first race. And then you just wouldn't say anything. Dude, no, I sucked, dude. I got the whole shot, kind of, and then a kid clipped me and it was all my fault, pretty much, but...
That was that. Wasn't somebody on like a 70? Oh, so that was in the second race. So the first race was just a 250R class or whatever. You got beat by a Honda 70? Oh, dude, he ran me off the road. These are some bad freaking dudes. You guys are going to come out for a damn extra probably. What? That is a 310 built. Billet fucking cases. It's a goddamn race fuel. These guys have 200cc, 70 frames that weigh like what? Half the weight. And they're freaking set up for flat track. Really?
running this shit. These guys are crazy. They're going to smoke a cigarette in their shorts and tank tops two seconds later. It's ridiculous. Unfortunately, I'm sick of hearing excuses. Come out and race next year. Come on. Trike Fest, dude. It was a hell of a time. Yeah, Gav went to Trike Fest and he was a bit of a celebrity there, I guess. We had a really good time for sure. Everybody was very awesome and you can't beat that. You can't beat a crowd like that. Hopefully, we can get the fellas out there.
and show you guys a little bit of the real trike life. Did you have one of the cleanest 250Rs? It was. Everybody was trying to buy it. But probably my big... Oh, yeah. Everyone was trying to buy it. My favorite part is Gav told us this weekend everybody was trying to buy it at about 75% of retail value. That was the biggest problem. Yeah. Yeah.
They're like, seven grand? Come on. How could you say no? And you're like, dude, what? I just got it, and it's worth more than that. Exactly. But guys, seriously though. But the biggest hit was probably my 87 200X, and the story behind that is freaking awesome. So I just got done having lunch at Qdoba. Pretty average day. We're like, shit, we need to get something filmed or whatever. It's coming up on Wednesday. We need one last bit.
Coming home from Qdoba, see a headlight of a three-wheeler. I go, Ty, flip around. I saw a 200X headlight. Flip around, flip around. We keep going. We lose track of this guy. We're coming up over a hill. We come to a dead end. It's right or left. I was like, all right, shit, what do I do? I didn't see him anywhere. It's not a dead end. It's a T. It's a T. It's a damn T. It's a damn T. So I get out, and I go look up right. I go, Ty, I don't see him right. So we go left, and we go down the street about half a mile, discount tire, sitting there on a trailer.
All right, 200X. I couldn't believe it. Just gorgeous. I talked to the guy. I was like, hey, would you ever sell? Would you ever sell? I'm all pumped up. He's like, I'd probably consider selling it. No way. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And he goes, this is the last year they ever made. And me thinking, all right, it's got to be the 86, all right, because that's one of the last years they ever made. No way it's an 87. So I was like, hey, would you take 500? He goes, ah, 750 right now. But then I shook his hand, and I'm walking around it for a second, walking around it for a sec. And I look at it. I go, this has a key. And I go, I think it might be an 87. I go, what?
And I looked down. 1980 freaking 7, fellas. Only 2,500 of them made. It was the most ridiculous thing ever. And then I'm over here at Trike Fest. And I had my good buddy Mitch or whatever that I just met there. He kept bugging me, bugging me for it. And he looks back at me and he's just like, hey, I'll give you six for it right now. He's like, I'll give you six grand for it right now. Oh, yeah. Six grand? All the guys were ready to drop. What?
$5 cash on this thing. Oh, yeah. There was one selling. Six grand? Way worse shape for like five grand. Way worse shape. Didn't have the headlight or anything. Oh, yeah. I had to turn down six grand. Yeah, you love going like this to me. I was like, oh, I can't do it though because everybody else was telling me you're not going to find another one, Gavin. You're just not going. No, definitely. Yeah. So that's insane, dude. You can't build a collection if you sell them off. Exactly. Yeah, that's true, but you can't be a hoarder if you sell something. Yeah, I'm right.
The fact that you had that big of an offer for it and didn't sell it with props to you. Do you just walk around with a couple hundred bucks in your pocket all the time? Always got to have like 300 at least. Always got to have 300. But the biggest part of it is honestly staying consistent on the marketplace. You got to check it. Whenever you're taking a piss or whatever, just roll on it. Type in three whores. Type in 12 valves. We'll see what's up. The best find I've probably honestly had is my 12 valve.
Because everybody was scared to buy it. Kid had it listed originally like 15 grand, right? Just everyone was so scared to buy it because you can't see how many miles they're on it. Kid was probably lying to me when he said there was 250 on it. It was probably closer to half a mil. Yeah. Oh, yeah. The brakes were a little shot, but I didn't really realize that. Gab doesn't use them.
I didn't realize that. No shit. Yeah. And so I checked it out. That turbo spooled right up. And I was like, oh, baby, we got to get this girl. So I bought that. I was like, hey, five grand. Paid five grand for that oil. No way. Haven't changed the tires on it. Gave it one oil change. And it's been the best machine ever for about five years now. You drove it all the way here, didn't you? Yep. One drive from here to Colorado. Yeah. AC works good, too. What's that?
Yeah, wait, do you own any vehicles with air conditioning? No, no, no. Well, sadly, my first 12 valve, so I have two 12 valves. Yep. First one that I crashed in the wall used to have AC, but I discovered it doesn't anymore. Okay, yeah, yep. What, you crashed into a wall? You know the story, F? I mean, I recall, but I'd like a refresher. Okay, so coming up over hill, I'm a pretty freaking good driver, I'll say it.
No, to some extent, to some extent. And just like a driving man or through the mountains and highways or whatever. I had been looking at my gauges or I had been looking at my phone. Either way, I don't know. I'm going to be honest. I hope the insurance company is not watching this. So I'm coming up over a hill or whatever doing 70, right? And I look up a foot in front of me.
Just had a complete stop. I'm coming in probably weighing what? What? 6,000 pounds with a freaking metal cattle guard up front. I'm going to smoke anything in front of me. Smoke anything. So I lay on the brakes right before I'm like six inches of foot before hitting him. Take it hard left. Thankfully, the 12 valve had a little bit of stance to hurt. What was the complete stop? The traffic? Yeah.
Only the right lane that came to a complete stop. Oh, traffic. Okay. Okay. But only the right lane. So I took it hard left. Yep. Wait, wait, wait, let me keep going. Once I took it hard left, I took it so hard that I'm now going sideways. I'm now going sideways, hit the wall straight on like this. So I'm going like this, going like this, doing really well. I'm like, okay, I'm driving out of this right now. Looking really good right there. Hadn't even hit my face or anything.
I'm confused. You actually hit a wall or a car? Eating along the wall. And a car in the left lane, right as I'm getting ready to slow down a complete stop, smokes the bed. Smokes the bed. Oh, my gosh. I don't even want to talk about it. But smokes the bed. We'll keep going now. Smokes the bed. And...
Then throws me in the full 360, put my head in the steering wheel, bent the hell out of the steering wheel. We'll get up bloody lip or whatever, looking around, looking around like, holy shit, what just happened? And then I'm looking in my rearview mirror. All right, everything's looking okay. Truck's still running. Turn the truck off. That's not my spare tire, is it? Is that a Mercedes right there?
Oh, yeah. Right in the back from Mercedes. Just watch. Smoke from Mercedes. Okay. So moral of the story. Come to find out that everybody stopped in the right lane for some ducks. The cops were already there trying to get the ducks out of the highway. There's some ducks. The cops saw it all happen. Yep. Really? And I got to take it for following too close. And that was that. That could have been worse. But yeah. And my liability insurance doubled. Exactly. Smoked a 12 valve. Probably the cleanest 12 valve in Colorado. Really? Oh, yeah. 150.
50,000 miles on it. All original paint, probably the prettiest paint. Yeah. Smoked it. So 150,000 miles is low when it comes to 12 hours? I mean, yeah, I'd say. That's not even running yet. That's not even broken in. The heat cycle just got done. Could
Could someone inform me what's the laws of, you know, when something happens so long ago that you can't get in trouble for it anymore? Is that seven years, five years, 25? It depends on the crime. It really does. Let's say your buddy accidentally crashes a pickup, allegedly. I can't talk about this. Into an alleged bridge and allegedly causes significant structure damage. Wow. What would be the typical time that you could speak about that?
Um, in general, us federal law has a statute of limitation for five years, unless there is specific legal language for offenses that stretch beyond that time. For example, murder. Okay. Well, he didn't do that. Uh, so I guess you guys also have to tune back into the life. I don't podcast.
415 something like that and we will we'll have a good story for you guys you better subscribe and one day you'll get to hear the story i have something i would kind of like to talk about it with cj a little bit just because i kind of want your opinion i feel like gaff do you do drugs no
You don't? Nothing. See, and that's why I think a lot of people would think that the way you are and how happy and bubbly and energetic, people probably think you do. Dude, Mountain Dew and freaking just stokedness on being here, honestly. And see, I love that. And we were talking about it and someone said that, they're like, dude, it seems like Gav's all tweaked out on Adderall all the time or something like that. I thought it was cocaine when I first met you.
Nope, nothing. I don't know. Just very blessed. I like to have fun. My biggest say on it is sleep good, eat good, and get in the gym. That's what I mean. That'll keep you going and keep you motivated. Yeah, you've been here for three days. We ain't been eating good. You ain't been sleeping. And you ain't been in the gym. I was thinking the same thing. This guy has been really breaking his regimen, but...
Yeah, is it our fault? Are we bad? It's the weekend. I got here Friday, man. We're starting Monday tomorrow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's true. A little weight in the gym. What's up? I tried. I was getting tired. 6 a.m. We'll see you there tomorrow morning. That's a little early, but we can push that. I ain't going to be there. I'll throw some weight up with you. Let's run it. I see you, CJ. You're looking good. Pull-up contest. Get the guns going. I think I'd be able to beat Gavin in a pull-up contest. How many you got?
I don't know. I've never maxed out, but I'm just saying. There's no way you have, bro. I've never been like, how many pull-ups can I do? You do pull-ups until you're tired, and then you let go. That's maxed out. That's not how I do it. I just do like 10. 10?
I guess like if you really wanted to dig deep, I don't know, I'd maybe do like 20. But the only reason why I think I'd be able to beat Gavin in pull-ups is because I definitely weigh less than him. So I'm pulling less weight. But I bet you anything, he is two times stronger than me. You definitely got me there. Pulling 230 pounds up a lot. Yeah. Like I for sure probably beat him in a pull-up. So for me, it's like I never did pull-ups as like a real workout before.
Like it was always as a competition. It was like every time I've done right for you pull ups, it's just like, how many can you do? Like you just want to know. I honestly, I don't know. I bet you I could do 20 right now for sure. But a hundred bucks.
Yeah. Really? I'd put $100 that I could do 20 pull-ups right now. You think you would tap out at 20? Because I might be able to do 21. No, I'm just saying I could probably do 20 for sure. I could maybe do 25. I don't know. But I'd put $100 that I could do. Do you want to do it after this? Yeah, it crossed my mind. Go ahead and shake it.
I mean, I'm down if you are, but. Is it who does more or just if you do 20, you get 100? I wasn't saying more. I was just saying if you do 20. You asked me how much I could do. Yeah, so if you do 20. You're kind of an athlete. I think I could do 20. Like, I'd put 100 bucks for sure. Wow, I haven't just changed my mind real quick. Yeah, yeah, you know, for sure. Yeah, 100 bucks. Let's do it. You are doing it.
Go ahead, shake. Air shake, yeah. All right, end of the podcast. The outro will be a little pull-up contest between you two. Yeah, there we go. No, not a pull-up contest. Sorry, sorry, sorry. It's just if I can hit 20. Yeah. For sure. Yeah, everyone knows I can hit 20. I can't believe you didn't think I could do 20. You just bet 100 bucks that I couldn't do 20, but you're like, I got 20 in the bag. How do you feel about that, Siege? I'm a little confused on that. I would be too. Well, in the same way that you said Gav's... Or you're smaller than Gav. Like, I feel I'm smaller than you. Honestly, I...
Probably do weigh more than you, but I'm definitely shorter. No, you don't. You don't think so? I weigh 184 pounds. Really? Okay, I'm down a little bit. Like, I'm a buck 75 right now. Wow, Ev. You are a thick guy. I was running 180 all winter for sure. Wow. You bulked up a little bit, eh? Yeah, yeah. That's pretty good. Mainly in the tummy.
That's not bad. I heard, like, girls are into, like, the dad bod beer belly thing now. Like, six packs are kind of lame. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Dude, you put two guys with a fine belly on a bummer out in the middle of the lake on a sandbar. On a bummer. Good luck keeping the ladies away. Yeah, I mean, you guys, there were a lot of women on the top of the Hummer pontoon. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. And their boyfriends were overwatching. Were there really? They had boyfriends? Yeah, they were cool, though. Well, yeah, obviously, they're sitting up there, but who didn't want to sit on top of that thing? Right? Yeah.
I'd be a little alarmed if my girlfriend was sitting on a bummer. I would too. Especially with you. If it's not my bummer, I'd be like, that's not good. She probably ain't coming back. That's not looking great. Was that an eye up there? I got all devious. So, Rye. Yeah, buddy. How do you feel about three-wheelers nowadays? I just got to ask. In what context, baby? Well, see, it's almost been a year since I came up here last. I just want to know basically all your guys' perspective on them now that we've became friends.
I think they're freaking cool. I just don't think I should be riding one. Guys, they sit well. I can respect them, and I really think they're cool. Absolutely. But the last thing I need to be doing is getting on a three-wheeler and hitting some jumps or something. So do you just feel like the tippiness is just not – nothing's right about it, right? I feel like it's just – I think that might be the last vehicle I would want to jump is a three-wheeler. Hey, I like to hear that. It makes me feel better.
I feel like it just got all of the bad qualities of a dirt bike and the bad qualities of a four-wheeler. Okay, you ready for the best answer? What? Yes. Go ahead, Ev. Always loved them. Hey, I don't know if I've said this before. It was my first off-road vehicle that I ever rode. My grandpa, Honda 110. Man, I don't know the year. CNN?
Late, late, was it 70s? Late 70s? No, probably early 80s. Early 80s? 82, 83 maybe? I don't know. ATC 110? It could have been. No suspension, balloon tires, high, low range. You had the balloon tires. You had the balloons. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Yep. Probably 70s, later 70s. That's what started the whole thing for me was that three-wheeler. See, that's probably one of the raddest things about it all for me is that they are what started all the ATV and all that kind of everything for that manner. Well, no, I mean the motorcycle. No, no, no.
no for like the atv no for like being able to ride in winter that's what big thing behind three wheelers was is we need something that's going to sell in winter and that's what exploded on the atv side or whatever i mean there was no side by sides it was dirt bikes and then three wheelers so they didn't make four wheelers they went from two wheels to three wheels exactly really it just seems like four wheels would have made more sense you can't add two things at once you
You had one, but you could add one axle. They weren't thinking like that. I don't know. They were wanting to get rad. Yeah, they were wanting to get rad. And so that's probably one of the coolest things is that's what started it all. And like hearing Ev's story, I've heard so many stories. That's what kids grew up on, like the older generation. Kids grew up. They're now full-grown men, but yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying. Kids grew up, and now they're freaking men. They're old, and they're dying now. They're 50s. It's what started it all. That's what's rad to me.
to me. It is nice to hear you excited about something, Gav. Yeah. Gav, you kind of got me in some trouble this weekend. What do we got going on, Ry? You call everybody baby. I tend to do that. You go like, give me some baby. You like that? With Gavin's baby energy, I have started to call people baby. Good. My girlfriend has not appreciated me calling anybody within shouting distance baby. I guess
Right. What's up, baby? Who'd you call baby? Like girls? No, no, no, no girls. But like, I'm like, hey, hand me a tea, baby. Gav, come over here, baby. Like stuff like that. Well, that's ridiculous that she doesn't like that. If you were going around calling other girls, baby, I could see that. That's true. I mean, I...
Definitely can understand that. But I think there was a slight tinge of jealousy. Oh, 100%. She better start calling her baby. No, I do. But it's tough to overcome the baby ratio. It might devalue the baby. That's probably what's actually going on. I think you're right there, Ev. Ryan's a baby guy. And now, Gav, you are turning him into a big baby guy.
What's up, baby? It's just fun to say, dude. Sorry to get you all tangled up in that mess, though. That's what happens when you hang out with you. We're trying to not burn corn rot down. I don't know if you can say you're trying. You're working on it. You're doing your best. I would say you're trying to burn corn rot down. He's just so pumped that you're here. I know. I'm taking all the blame for everything. From Colorado to corn rot and everything in between, right? It's all just going to hell. What?
Like, how do we keep it under control now, F? There is no control. Yeah, he was walking in. He was like, are you sure we're not brothers in some house I have? There might be a bloodline down there, man. I don't know. I think we got some of the same trousers. I mean, jeans. No, no.
Yeah, no, we're trying not to burn it down. You two have been a little dynamic duo, because you're always sitting next to each other in restaurants, and I have been cackling, laughing at you two, because you two bust each other up, and one of you spits out your food, your drink, your whatever. I'm sensing a little bit of jealousy out of Mike over there. Oh, no, Mike's all about it. It's like Gavin came to town, and now...
Yeah, and now and now it's like he's just been chewed off to the side and and and Evans like hey guys Come on. Let's go. Let's go get lunch. Just me and you We're just lucky that you guys already had bunk beds in my room cuz me and Gav we're gonna build some last night. Were you? Yeah, we got the guacamole and the nachos going. Oh wait, we got bunk beds
Did you sleep on the bunk beds last night just because, like, you know we got that spare room for you? Yeah, we hit the sauna and stuff, and then, yep. Ev, why are you still sleeping in a bunk bed? Fuck. Because we've offered to get you set up with a freaking queen size, get you a king size bed in that room. So, I mean, most bunk beds people think is just two twin beds, maybe, or something small. This is like a bigger bed.
I'm not sure what the next size or two of them is. A full, maybe even a queen. I don't think it's a queen. It might be close. It's a close queen. Close queen. Hey, well, I know I'm a short fella, but I can lay sideways damn near on it. Really? Yeah, so it's pretty good. Okay. The top acts as a shelf.
What do you mean? Like the top bed, I throw shit up there. Oh, yeah, I noticed. Oh, yeah, your hats. My hats, my clothes. No, not much trash. Hot pockets. Oh, yeah, I leave snacks, you know, goldfish. Right. Empty tea cans. And then also, I've found out, I didn't know this, that when you're using the lower level bed, that the upper level bed is a great point for... For what? Um...
Angling the position of your body when you're aggressively napping with your significant other. I feel like there would be multiple... Okay, that makes sense. Keep killing the bunk bed life. You might have had a cheek kill. I feel like I'd get in the way a lot, though, because you couldn't even go all the way. I'm 5'5". I'd be like, constantly...
Yeah, I suppose. Maybe it works for you, huh? Yeah, no, it works real good. It's all positives. Yeah, no negatives, really. You come over, like next time you come over to the house, you look in my room, it's just a bunk bed. Dude, that'd be hilarious. My girlfriend wanted me to buy a sex swing. I purchased a bunk bed. A bunk bed?
It'd be kind of nice. Like, you get kind of uncomfortable sleeping next to each other. Just one goes up top. You're still in the same room. That's one step away from two bedrooms in the same room. Yeah, but it's still not two bedrooms. Eh, slightly better. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. It is funny walking into Ev's room, and he's just got his bunk bed in there. Ah, it keeps me young.
There is something keeping me young, Ev. That's for sure. I don't know what it is. I think we all need a little bit of what Evan and Gavin have. I agree. Whatever you guys got going, man. Honestly, I don't think you guys can handle it. I don't think we could either. Very few can. It's not for everyone. There's a jam up left and right all the time, but there are just two peas in a pod this weekend, bro. That's what I'm saying, dude.
You guys just had a real bonding moment that happened, and now you are going to be inseparable for life. The scary thing is I felt that way the last half a dozen times we've met, but this week has really been something. Really, yeah. I'm really connected. It was really honestly the first time I ever came up here, and I was talking about this rainbow rail. I don't want to do a rainbow rail. I don't do rails. I don't jump. I thought you were going to say rainbows. No, no, no, no. And so, yeah, we're hanging out over at the—
Getting dinner. No, no, we're getting lunch over at the pit. Okay. And Ev won't stop talking about it. He's like, dude, I went to sleep last night. Not okay. We got this rail. We can do this rail. I was like, all right, Ev, all right. And he's like, if anyone's going to do it, you're the three-wheeler guy. You got to hit it first. Yeah, I wanted it, but it wasn't my speed. It was all you. Yeah, exactly. Well, you know how it is. I didn't know if it was possible. I needed a true guy, three-wheeler guy to show me. So we show up.
And we're looking at it. I was like, nope, not doing it, not doing it. But I put my tennis shoes on just in case. I was in case I had a change of heart. That's the riding gear. I made sure to put my tennis shoes on. Yeah, I even tied my laces. You went from the Crocs to the tennis shoes. Yep, yep. Put my tennis on, dude. I was like, it's game time maybe, but I really don't want it. Game time maybe. And F going, F's like.
Back and forth like, holy shit, he's about to do this. He looks at me one last time. He's like, sure, Gav. You can do it first. And I go, Ev, let me do it. Next thing I know, he used second gear, full throttle, over a rainbow rail. Best feeling I've ever had. And Ev saying, you got it, man. That's when I knew. I was like, shit, this is not going to be good. Like, what do you mean by... His confidence and him telling me, oh, we got this shit. And then you listening. And me believing, oh, we probably do got this shit. There's a chance we don't, but...
He knows that if I'm going to encourage him, he's in good hands. He's in good hands. I support it, and I know he's got this. Better hands than most. Like the 450 jump, too. When I cleared the 450 jump, I was like, oh, that's a big girl. But I was like, dude, man. You know, I can't say that I look at Evan and think,
I'm in good hands. I can't believe I look at him and think that either, but there's just something about, I mean, and it all just wraps around to surround your people, surrounding yourself around people that you want to help make yourself better and be cool. And I don't do all the fun stuff with, and that's just one of the biggest examples right there. Just surrounding yourself by people that want to push you and stuff like that. Would you consider Evan to be an enabler? I think I would. Or more of a leader? A little bit of both.
Definitely probably a little. Who's leading when you two are going into something? Is it your tag team? No, Ev's done more. I don't feel that way. We're tag teaming it, but Ev has more experience, so I'm listening to him a little bit more, but I'm still trying to chirp him. Okay, Gav, you're confused. Go ahead. No, no. I don't think I have more experience, and I don't think you should trust me as much. I thought we were on the same page. We're going in this together, but you're following me. I don't like that. Well, just keep thinking we're on the same page. All right. We'll run it.
No, it is though, for real. Like the energy you got, you build off other people's energy. You do something crazy. I want to do something crazier. I don't know. You just, it's fun. Right? Yeah. No, you can't beat that. That's good. That's good. Yeah. Yeah. It is. Does it make you guys?
Ever want to try and go do the stunt here and there like that? No, I know it does because the entire Seaboy squad was wheeling in your yard for hours. Oh, man. Was that the best sight I've ever seen, though? Did that make the heart happy? I shed a tear. Did you? Ben was smiling, doing wheelies, drinking a Celsius. Ben was smiling. I shed a tear. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Wow, you cracked a smile out of me. No, it wasn't just a smile. I meant while doing the wheeler. Yeah, it was amazing. Oh, yeah.
The whole squad. No, you can't beat that, right? That's what it's about right there. I could never get the whole squad to do wheelies on a three-wheeler. We show up to your place for a few hours, everyone's running wheelies. Well, we only have one three-wheeler, Ev. Well, that would probably be the first one. Gavin has like 20. Based off of this, you're suggesting we buy more? Not necessarily. Heck yeah. Dude, that was rad having you guys all just on wheelers, everyone having a blast. We can't beat that. And you guys...
All you guys need to go out and mess around. That's what it's about right there. You won't see more joy than just boys messing around on some old wheelers or anything. I mean, even if you have a freaking pedal bike, get outside and have fun with your friends, right? Gosh, damn. Absolutely. Is outside paying you to tell people to go outside? Yeah. Is that your paid endorsement, Gav? Outside is fucking nature is paying Gav. Feeling my energy, man. Feeling my energy. I don't know. I love it. It'll do something to a man. I'll tell you that.
Spent a little too much time up in Dirty Gunny. What's the dirtiest thing that's ever happened up in Gunny? We don't want to go there. I kind of want to. I want to hear this. Let's unpack it. Tell me what you want to, like, what kind of story would you like to hear here? Well, you just asked you. The dirtiest? But what is Gunnison? In what manner? In what manner? So just give the people a five-second description of Gunnison. So Gunnison is not on the main highway up to the mountains or whatever. No.
It's off the beaten path. It is off the beaten path. Is there an asphalt road that goes there? There is, but it's a single lane. Oh, yeah, it's not the big old three-lane highway up I-70. No, you're taking the single lane up 285 straight to Gunny. Okay. And it's paradise. But, man, will that change a man? Let's keep on going. And so, dude, dirtiest story, man. I don't know if that's appropriate. Dude, I don't have too many dirty stories. I mean, we try to keep it pretty classy.
In the mountains. I'm glad you... One of my favorites... Why can't you keep it classy in Cormorant? Yeah, I was going to say, I'm glad you prefaced in the mountains. We like to keep it classy. We get down here in the slums of Cormorant. I just let it loose. Don't say that. One of the best things... No, this is one of the funnier things that's happened. Is just on the trails and some girl comes up to me. Did you make that? What are you talking about? I had no clue what she... That three-wheeled contraption, did you make it?
What? Gavin, did you tell that woman that you invented the three wheeler? Wait, wait, wait. So do you know how to make them? Oh, this is mine. Yeah, yeah. Oh, I started to wonder for a sec.
And that was the end of it. She got into it and off. She thought I was a creator of three rulers. Fuck, that was anticlimactic. I thought you were going somewhere like that. I thought you were going to have her piled up on the back of the wheel. Yeah, that's what I thought. He's going. Yeah, she was one of the Gunnison hippie chicks. Oh, she wasn't a heavy. She was a hippie. Dude, there's a difference. I mean, they're polar opposites, I'd go to say. 100%. You ever take a nice young lady on a night out on the town on the three ruler?
Oh, 100%. That was probably one of the best things, just cruising up to Hartman's with the old lady on the back of the Big Red. Go cook a nice burger on a rock. You cooked a burger on a rock? You know what I'm saying, though. Okay. No, I don't think anyone does exactly know. Did you start a fire? No, I just put the...
- You put the grill right there on top of the rocks. - Oh, you're on a big rock. - Yes, yes, yes. - Oh, I thought you were cooking on a rock. - Yeah, 'cause I've heard of people like cooking an egg on hot asphalt. So I envision you cooking a burger on a hot rock. - No, no, no, I got my little grill set up there. - Where do you put the grill if you got a girl and a three wheeler? - It's a big rock. - No, but how big is the three wheeler? - You didn't ride the rock out there? - You have a grill in your backpack?
Yeah, are you Spongebob? You guys are throwing this story all over the place. I know. I just want to know the logistics of this thing. You're going on a sweet little date. You got yourself a Big Red. You got yourself a cute gal. And you probably got a cooler. A barbecue grill. You guys are putting me in paradise. No, I have a grill right there. Oh, you leave it out there. No, no. I pack the Big Red up, get everything loaded on, and cruise up the hills. But where's the grill? Where's the grill? Do you pull a trailer? No.
No, it's in the back of the Big Red. Big Red has a big apartment. Oh, you guys. No, but Gunnison, yeah, that's all you got to do out there. There's no big parties or anything. You got to go outside. You got to catch a fish and you got to go hang out. Yeah. There's that outside plug again, dude. You guys. No, we're trying to get the kids outside. How do you feel about kids with iPads?
Terrible. Makes me want to go up and see how far I can punt it. The kid or the iPad. Pulled at that point? Gosh, damn it. No, it shouldn't be the kid. It's the iPad or the parent, baby. Not the kid. The iPad. Give him a three-wheeler. Don't kick him. No, yeah. Damn it. Give him a fishing pole. The kid's on the iPad after he breaks his collarbone. Yeah, if he has a three-wheeler the next day, he's back on the iPad because he broke his collarbone. Yeah, I'm getting it. Damn.
Oh my gosh. Yeah, I was thinking about that. You know, we give away the pit bikes. It'd be cool if you did a three-wheeler giveaway, but you can't do that. You can't give a kid a three-wheeler. He did. I did. Oh, I'm sorry. I missed that part. Yeah, I know. We bought a van, so we did a giveaway. Yeah. And he's okay? Oh, he's alive still. I told him to stay in second gear. Do not leave second gear. Keep your feet on the pedals, and you're going to be good. He wasn't an iPad kid, I hope.
He didn't know how to do carb clean. He might have been an iPad kid. You're telling me that you gave away a wheeler that needed a carb clean? You are every Craigslist guy ever. It's mint. It just needs a carb clean. You won the grand prize. It just needs a carb clean. We made sure to get... No, no. I was just talking to him about carb cleans. We made sure to give him the cleanest wheeler we had. That thing started out... The cleanest carb? Shut up.
No, start it up first, pole man. No, we treated him right. But no, that was a scary thing about it. He had no clue. He hopped on that thing and he did not know what he was doing. He took a hard Lucy and it wasn't looking good for him off the bat. Lucy? Shut up. Yeah, what the fuck is this? Do you always call left Lucy? You gotta hook a Lucy, man. That one does not taste right.
Shit. All right. But yeah, no. Then after that, we got him to keep his feet on the pegs. And dude, stay in second gear. Got the hang of it. Did a couple wheelies with the kid. Sent him off the 185. I'm really excited to see you two do a pull-up. Not contest. Sorry. I'm excited to see CJ do 20 pull-ups. Yeah, after CJ goes, like, there's no wager on what I can do. But obviously, I'm just going to try to do better just to be a douche.
That's cool. I'm not sure if I can. CJ hits the gym. But you're what? Five, six days a week in the gym? No, it just depends on the time. Lately, I have been going to the gym a lot. But other times, it'll be like four months without even going. Oh, really? Yeah, it just goes back and forth. Good shit, CJ. But I see you all the time when there's a quick five, 15 minutes of downtime. You just zip over, hit a couple lifts, whatever. Yeah, I try to.
I think that's almost better if you blend it through the day, like five times you just wander over. Definitely better than nothing. Oh, better than nothing for sure. I'd agree. How do you guys feel about working out? Does it actually help you get through? Like if you work out in the morning or night, what's that like for you? What do you prefer? I think if I work out during the day, preferably...
It just like, you feel like you already got a good victory under your belt. Ready to go, right? That's the best. Like you could do like a normal full day, but if you like mix in a workout, like an actual, you went to the gym, you really feel like you did a good job. You're ready to start kicking ass, right? You didn't leave anything unturned that day. At least that's how I feel. No, I feel the same way. What do you got to say about it, Ev?
I hate the gym. I don't enjoy it. They're all drinking water there, not teas. Sorry, yeah. The same thing that CJ just described, I would get that out of
hopping on my dirt bike and just ripping the track for 30 minutes straight, 10, 20 laps, whatever. Just ride till I'm exhausted and I feel satisfied from that. But it's also screwed up because you're also just one of those natural born athletes that doesn't really, you can go sleep on that couch and drink Cheetos and nachos, eat Cheetos and drink, drink Gatorades all day and go perform like hell of an athlete on the track 20 minutes later. Yeah. Cause that's just you. There's just dogs like that, I guess. Huh?
I do what I can. I just, it's so hard for me to like, when I wake up, I normally get so excited, not excited. Maybe isn't the right term, but I'm like ready to go get to work. Like we have a gym here and never use it because I get to work and I go, all right, going to do 10 minutes of things on my computer. Then I'll run down there and work out. And it's like, you get started with the day and then it's too hard for me to quit because
And go work out. I feel that. But I always feel better when I do. I wish I was better at it. You just got to dedicate yourself. It's true. That's all it's about, really. Yeah. Well, Ev. Wait, final question. Yeah. How do you guys think Scuba Steve's going to work? I just want to know right before we do it. Yeah, what do you guys all think? I think that, yeah, I mean, it just depends on the location. I think it's going to go well because we have big wrench. I was going to say, we have the number one guy in the country. Yeah.
For driving a three-wheeler underwater? Well, that too. I was going to say, the number one guy in the country for building a machine that is going to operate in water that should not be near the water. Like the Hummer. Yep. Brian's the guy. He was going to make it happen. We got the ultimate driver and we got the ultimate builder. I don't see where we could go wrong.
It's going to go wrong, but I don't know where it's going to be. Are you going to actually do it or is someone else going to do it? Oh, I'm doing it. You're the one going to go underwater. Yeah, let's go. Okay. Well, I believe the beauty of a Honda is you could do it multiple times. Right? Yeah. We'll pull the plug. We got it. Yeah. Well, I was just. No offense. Take this. I shouldn't say no offense because then. And you know what? I just maybe shouldn't say it. Offend him. Offend him. Gavin, how many. You just. Maybe someone else should drive the three wheeler.
Like, you're a fantastic three-wheeler driver, rider. Okay. But you just haven't successfully... Yeah, you're right. ...scooped what Steve did. Maybe we need a different rider. Maybe we need a different rider. It's just...
I don't know. Just throwing it out there. Maybe that's something we should consider. Remember, you couldn't quite get the water skip, and then Ken came in. So maybe Ken would be the guy for this job. Ken, how do you feel about scuba diving? I've never gone scuba diving or anything like that. Snorkeling? I'm going to go out on a limb and say Gav hasn't scuba dived either. Legally? Legally?
No, we're going to defy the odds and we're going to have a hell of a time doing it and we're going to make it across, fellas. All right. Should we go do some pull-ups? You're first.

Rusty Clark, an Army and Air Force veteran, needed treatment at a VA hospital. Meet his wife, Juanita. We live above Borgantown, West Virginia. It would take us about seven hours to get here. And I was prepared to sleep on the hospital floor beside of Mr. Clark.
But the Fisher House opened up that door. We had a lovely suite to stay in. We had food to eat. We didn't have to worry about that because the Fisher House, the foundation, Mr. and Mrs. Fisher took care of all that years ago, following their dream to make our reality that we were together and we could be treated here. It's a great blessing. Meet Rusty. I was in the Army Guard, and then I went into the Air Force, and then I met Juanita. Keeping families together when they need it most.
