Can someone please tell me if All Terrain works against no-see-ums? We're in South Carolina for the summers and these nasty's are just awful. Thanks!

It depends on your chemistry. Personally, I was disappointed in the product. I'm in Florida and it did not protect against no-see-ums completely. However, bugs are drawn to me more than anyone I'm with at any given time, and it did work for the others. Seems Deep Woods Off or Bullfrog are the things that work for my skin, although one contains DEET and the other is a spray.

Not sure about the bugs in SC, but I bought it before visiting my in-laws in Bolivia during their summer (Dec 2013), ad I applied 2-3 times a day and the only times I ever had problems were when I forgot. (Lots of mosquitos and no one seemed to worry about screens on their windows. I loved the sliding glass doors on either side of the house for a great breeze, but it would allow plenty of skeeters or anything else easy access to the house.) Definitely worth a try, and it smells good to me too... lemony.

If you think bugs will not burrow through this you would be incorrect. You can use any non organic topping for bug stoppage, but I believe it would be better to use bug screen just below the dirt. Decorative rock may look better on top then this.

The best dang tire you can buy for a truck weighing more than 8k lbs and needing great off road capabilities. Just curious. Why do you care about the sidewalls? Worried about curbs or bullets? lol.

I saw a brief video (perhaps @ the vendor's site?) which had a nice demo. Near the end of the "run" just do a little "fling" up. I find it works great with dry or wet snow. Just did a search - this demo looks good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9GgYKtBE9Q. PS: I also got the gravel attachment. Hope this is helpful. All the best. Pat

Check the locations of broadcasting sites in your area, and then see if you cannot get a bearing on them through a window. In many cases all the locals will be on the same hilltop, and the Terck doesn't have to be *near* the window, just AIMED through it towards the broadcasters. There should be a webpage for "broadcast television stations" for your area, and will give you bearings from your location. I don't have direct experience with the siding issue, so that may be a sticking point.

Sorry, I'm no help either. I never thought to use it outside. One way to find out though!!! Let us know how it turns out.

Hey Will, just wondering if you bought this bike and successfully put 32's on the bike? I just saw my friends tires and 23's are way too skinny! Not to mention I'd bet you'd feel EVERY piece of dirt. I'd like to know before I commit.

I haven't had to teeter on rocks just yet but I did run into a big yellow concrete post, the ones that are put in front of buildings so you don't hit the building. They held up really well, no dents or anything just a nice long yellow stripe. I'd assume they'd do really well though on the rocks, not just for mall-crawling, the things are gnarly.

Mmmm... they resist rain well, not under water of course I live in Texas way down south so I dont even know what snow look like lol. Im sure they will resist enough but hey you can always buy the eexpenssive ones. It is a great deal for heat and rain in the street.

Was caught out driving when snow began to fall pretty steady, in Alabama, yeah haha... had to pull in the first parking I came to and park it. No matter how much I babied the throttle it would just spin and hardly move. Tire grip is terrible in snow as well on wet pavement. Although durability is great. Never a flat or pressure problem.

I'm intrigued by the idea of a net over my bike helmet. When I slow going up hills or at intersections in the spring, bugs come through the slots of my helmet and I can't hit or scratch them as they enjoy themselves biting my head. Stopping and removing the helmet takes time and lets more bugs catch up. I think I'll try it and see if the air is too restricted. Great brainstorm! Thanks!

I have made a big effort to make GameDay as weatherproof as possible knowing kids may leave it outside. But, because it is an electronic game, care should be taken regarding leaving it outside in bad weather. We have made it very easy to take on and off for this purpose. I am very excited to hear that our efforts to weatherproof GameDay has worked.....but I still recommend keeping it out of the bad weather. Thanks to all who responded. Scott

I would consider it all terrain. I have had an R6 for many years and loved it, however while it did work outdoors, over grass, gravel, dirt, etc, it involved a little more effort to pull it - and also with less of a load, so double the work - because of the smaller front wheels. The R12 on the other hand is fantastic so far on all surfaces with its larger and wider front wheels. Again, it depends on the 'use' situation and the load, for example I have not used it in a muddy situation yet. That said, I've been very pleased with mine and am wondering why i did not get the R12 sooner.

Thanks you for your quick response. Bit I guess I still don't quite understand. The directions say to either use them on primary runs (which I guess are the little ridges just below the surface), exploratory runs (which I didn't understand), or in the deep tunnels (which I guess is right inside the little volcanoes or mounds they dig. I have tons of mounds, so I thought I'd drop the worms in there first, unless that is not the best option. Right now, I've smashed all the mounds down and will check which ones reappear. Thanks again.

My wife's is supper tuff. It climbs like no tomorrow, I drove it up a mountain over 400 yards that for a person was all but hands and knees, went just a little to much side hill and it rolled and flipped over rocks and brush and still is ticking. Don't go ramming full blast into stuff and you should be ok.Got parts on line where ever. Love ours it's a supper truck.

They are better than the factory tires but they are still just an "all terrain" tire. They aren't really great in mud. Sand ok. I live in Florida and we have plenty of both.

I am just guessing that if it is muddy, there has to be water of some kind around/near. It seems logical it would work, but I don't know for sure. This might be a question to direct to the manufacturer, sending them photos of the area and more detailed information about if there is any water, if the water is trickling away down the creek so any BT would be moved off the target area, etc. Is there grass that is wet growing near the muddy creek which would hold moisture and provide mosquito breeding grounds? You may have to expand your treatment area to beyond just the muddy creek. Good luck! I am just guessing that if it is muddy, there has to be water of some kind around/near.
