TEC || Ardbeg Fall Run 2020 (Oct 2 - 4)

Make sure you have front and rear recovery points to hook up a winch line or tow rope.

Something like this for the front: https://www.amazon.ca/All-Sales-88711-Demon-Bumpers/dp/B07PGLK9CD

Something like this for the rear: https://www.princessauto.com/en/detail/5-ton-hitch-mount-tow-shackle/A-p8598377e and https://www.princessauto.com/en/detail/class-iii-and-iv-5-8-in-quick-latch-hitch-pin/A-p8906935e

 

The amaozon ones I'm getting.
At least for now...

 

Isn't there one stock on a OR?

 

Stock OR has a funny-looking hook on the front RH side, nothing in the rear. @19Canuck has a Sport.

In the rear you can also loop the strap on the hitch pin, but you'll be limited to straight pulls only:

 

Hrmm I wonder if these Amazon ones will work with my ARB bumper....

 

@19Canuck

Ardbeg is unlike anywhere else I have wheeled. It is all exposed Canadian Shield rock face. Little to no mud, you can find it but its not everywhere. You have to go to the area's with it.

This is why it is slightly more dangerous to wheel here with out proper skids, when you hit something, that something is solid rock, with his huge solid rock face buddy holding him in place.

Rare to even hit tree's right @Manfred as the main south trail is on just rock, with more rock.

 

I gots all this shit already! Not bad for a Newb...

 

The Demon brackets use the same bolt holes as the ARB bumper, so you'd have to either notch the brackets or open up the two bottom holes in the bumper. Probably not worth the trouble compared to the other options available.

 

Exactly why I'm looking at skids...but gonna chicken out and do the by pass trails! lol

 

there is no shame, i did all the bypass trails the first time i went - and i'll probably do that again this time

 

lol It wasnt embarrassing, it was downright hilarious

Not sure if it was a mistake to have it uncapped or not. but i'm starting to think there might need to be another bottle of Ardbeg at Ardbeg

 

It’s seems to be... at 750ml per bottle and 2oz cups it’ll be 12.5 people only. Well, here is to another trip to LCBO!

 

Count me out guys. Beer is ok and il bring my own of course. liquor is a no no for me.

 

Doing pre-run this weekend and going to finalize on camp sites and other organizing things next week.

 

Need a buddy?
I'll be around in Huntsville around 8 or 9pm Friday. About a 2 hour drive or so.

i also feel like this is a mistake to ask

 

Does your insurance pays MSRP at the end of the weekend, welcome to join? It's a hardcoreeeeeeeeeeeeee (read: people that can't drive) peeps only. Bunch of Heeps and one little taco on 35s.

 

Are you going to try to connect the North Trail with Harris Lake Rd further west?
