    @assjuice cyrus Mom is usually there to drive the tow bike, he is looking at an air override for his slider so he can do it by himself when she doesn't want to come.

    You guys are right, my mom is awesome for helping him for all these years.....great German lady!!!!!

    Definitely a great place to grow up, I got tired of the cold weather and decided to leave. I think I've seen LeRoy road signs on I-74.
