Sue, Rick, it looks like at 6:24 on the vid the "Katmobile" bottomed-out on a big rock hard enough that it even dragged it along for a bit. It then looks like you Rick, steered to the right to avoid it. I may be wrong (happens all the time) but that's how it looks, probably nothin'...glad you didn't sustain any serious damage Sue! Hope you're feelin' better after your MS flair-up.
Looks like a good time. My vx is coming up on perfection. Next year I am planning to go, especially after that video.
Thanks for the photos and video
More photos (a lot, not kidding!) from the Tuesday Fins 'n Things run. I personally loved this trail as it really showed me what my VX was capable of. I took my friend Joe back here to do the first part the morning we left so he could get a taste of it (we also did Baby Lion's Back and I think I took the steepest possible route down while Joe's jaw hung down on the ground).

More to come :)
I miss the days when Fins N Things would give me a rush. Your VX is capable of so much more than that!! Did anyone run the back side of Fins N Things? Oct 2011 that was one nasty trail, no sliders=not going. It was all washed out.
Since it was my first time there, I don't know what the back side is, but I thought we did the entire trail. There were some fun optional climbs, and by then nothing was optional for me :)

Thanks for posting the pics Tom!!! I'll upload our pictures the next day or so of Porcupine Rim, Golden Spike, Hello Kitty Canyon, Kane Creek, & Cliff Hanger. Didn't take too many pics this year... always felt like we were in a rush. :yesy:
Got back around 11PM last night. Drove from 90 degree temps all week in Moab to 35 degrees last night in a snow storm on Vail Pass. Had a blast & miss everyone. :thumbup:
I'm thinking we need a mini-stoop and trail run in Colorado in a month or so...
:)
