Magician in Rural Burleigh Co.

[Magician16]

Put about 90 miles on the Magician mostly off road today. I need to get a new front tire because I was washing out constantly in the sand by the river. By the time I got back, my headlight had just about fallen off and my burrito tube was hanging on with one bolt. Took about a half hour to fix the bike after the trip. Trip was a combination of deep sand, atv 2 track with deep ruts, section lines, wash boarded gravel roads, and 20 miles of highway back.

Go over that bike from front to back and Use Blue and Red loctite where appropriate on every bolt and nut you can get to.

Every bolt on it has had loctite applied previously, except those 2 below the headlight. I somehow missed those. My burrito tube has a liter gas can full of gas in it and the torque from riding hard may have broken the bolt. I went out to the same area a few days ago and ended up riding through mud most of the time.
