    roadsafeamerica.org

    It looks like they are just like any other orgnazition. They pick and choose the data that supports their own agenda. It appears like they totally ignore data from the AAA Asoc. that says 3 out of 4 fatal accidents involving a truck are caused by a FOUR WHEELER!

    leg cramps

    You also need to wear something comfortable. Avoid boor fitting garments with elastic bands that can restrict the blood flow. I always switch from Jeans to loose sweat pants for those long runs.

    Speedco and the MBE900

    Are they any better at servicing the MBE 900? I took delivery of my MBE900 M2 in May of 03. At that time they had never seen this engine before. That was ok I had them use my own filters. On one occasion they broke a air line,don`t ask me how. They paid for the repair (after some haggling)...
