What tire pressure do you guys recommend for riding? I do a lot of woods/trail riding with a lot of water and creek beds with rocks. Also there are a far amount of hills and mud. I put a hole in my tire the last time I went out so trying to do whatever I can to help

I was running 9psi but after popping a bead, I upped it to 10. I am running 27" 8-ply radials though. Does fine in the woods and desert at that pressure for me.

Depends on what tire, how many ply, how stiff the sidewall and so on.  I with a 6 ply tire i usually run about 12 PSI. With an 8 ply tire i usually drop down to 10.  I am not  a fan of 4 ply tires but up around 14-15 psi usually will keep you from getting a pinch flat.  2 ply (what comes stock on the CF Moto should really only be used for sand.  When I run in the sand i go down to 2 psi but there is nothing to pinch them on.
I can imagine a world completely at peace.  A world where there are no weapons, no war, and no violence at all.  And I can imagine us taking over that world because they would never expect it.
