    Angry

    Why cut down the trees to build the church when you can just worship in the forest?

    I put a few pics up in my gallery. Sorry for the crappy quality.
    The trails were twisty and narrow through trees and some mud. Some were too narrow to pass. A few quads and a mototrcycle were running around. Ran into about 8 paint ballers out there too. In addititon to the wooded trails, there was a couple sand and gravel pits, but most of the higher hills were passable by quads and motorcycles. There are lots of places to go explore and next time I'm sure I will. I got a few more "pinstripes" on my cladding. I hope the others came home better.
    I now know exactly what my truck would look like with 3" lift and 285/75-16 Dueler M/T's. Rook's VX is awsome.
    Yal's VX was 2 weeks old and this was her first time off road. She was fearless!
    No trouble, no carnage, no repairs. (See, I didn't even mention the Jeep and how he left because he took on too much mud!)

    Unhappy

    Sorry I couldn't be there to play with you on those trails. Glad everyone had fun, and that this place is so close. I look forward to the next run!
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    Talking

    It was great meeting everyone, so much fun! I'm glad everyone else had a fun time too. No damage to report, it looks like just a few new pinstripes for me as well. The trails were a blast and actually ended up being much better than I remembered, all in all a good time. I'm already looking forward to our next run
    If I'm so anal about keeping my car clean, why do I smile everytime it's covered in mud?

    Hello

    Finally got a minute to say "wow"
    It was very very nice to meet you all. Yes, it was my first off road driving and I had a blast!
    I got a couple of pinstripes, but nothing a little rubbing compound and lots of TLC couldn't fix. VX got one tiny dent on the side, above the wheal, where the branch I drove over broke and sprang right in my side. I was scared to death I did something to the suspension when I heard the crack.

    My question is: when do we go again?
