Hey Guys,

A few of you have asked me what Utah is like. So here are some photo's from what I feel is my piece of Earth. Although the state of Utah, and the National Government might think otherwise. Utah is more than a big red arch.

A few pictures from a wood chopping hike to prepare for some backpacking trips this summer.

Not for the weak at heart. We did have a Sasquatch sighting.

I live in Salt Lake County. Those pictures are from Wasatch county. Where I live is tied in with about 75 miles of people. Many cities but one big cluster of humanity surrounded by mountains. I hate the enormous amount of people. I'll post some pictures of my city, but I'll have to take some first.

Here is my 'Office'

The seat and frame pictured I built with my old man to be the exact same driving position as in one of our Sakers, and that is also a Saker seat, with a little more padding however

I'll post some outdoors shots when I get to be at home while its not dark.

[SJ]nissan man · « **Reply #9 on:** June 11, 2006, 10:38:20 am »

no wonder your so fast Riven, having a good racing seat is cheating

that is a sweet setup though, way better than my desk and office chair deal

[SJ]2shedz · « **Reply #10 on:** June 11, 2006, 12:52:03 pm »

blimey David, you got an office chair, i make do with a dining room chair (cant deal with a swively chair,i swivel enough on my own) :-\

[SJ]Stein · « **Reply #11 on:** June 11, 2006, 09:02:49 pm »

hehe riven, nice setup..

also noticed you have the pedalbox setup at an angle upwards.. which most ppl dont have.. more tip-toe-expirience that way eh?

Woof ~ Woof

[SJ]Riven · « **Reply #12 on:** June 11, 2006, 09:28:30 pm »

The pedals are just the standard Mono Black ones. I had to angle them up bacause of the driving position. They are made for people in normal chairs so you press down on them. I however am in a early 90's F1 position (pre raised nose), so my arse is at the same height as my feet.

This is a higher view (photos dissapeared from the site at this level

)

My place is about where the blue circle is, only 2mins from Palmerston North.

I work at the center of town pretty much, and it only takes about 7mins to get to work in peak traffic

[SJ]2shedz · « **Reply #15 on:** July 10, 2006, 03:11:49 pm »

if you could just post your postcode/zip and door number, i'll pop round when your at work and "borrow" your seat set-up >

what ever your budget ,theirs only 1 thing important the lens! make sure you get one from a proper camera company , e.g cannon,minnolta,pentax ect.. also mega pixels dont matter so much once you get over 3 meg unless your really gonna do proffesional stuff.
