Northern Virginia Roll Call

Ouch.

 

Tell me that was not you

 

Ouch, hope you're ok!!

Expanding the brewery?

 

Oh it most definitely was me this am.

Replaced the rotting wooden decking on my front porch with trex.

 

You were pretty calm about it. My neighbors would've learned new words.

 

I too was impressed by his grace and control!

 

I’ve finally made it, 3 years after leaving active duty I get a muster notice letting me know I’m now a Sgt.

 

It's an official letter. I don't see why they can't say no.

 

Adam I hope your ok man that looked nasty....

 

Yeah, there would have been a few words my neighbors haven't heard me use. And maybe an ice pack.

 

Holy shit, Batman! Hope you’re ok.

 

I was thinking about s commuter car. Or truck. Or both.

 

The way wood prices are rising, trex may soon be the cheaper option.. Best of luck with the rest of your project!

 

Funny stuff. Been awhile since I’ve watched his vids.

 

I was told it's about equal right now when we got a deck quote.

 

Thanks for the info Bill

Lucky it was open, and for someone who mostly hits the trails during the weekdays it was very busy.

I may be saying water is wet here, but here's my trail report:

While not the tightest I've been on, it definitely did add a fair amount to my already immense pinstripe collection. So pavement princesses need not apply.

None except the largest water hole is no more than a 1.5 feet deep. The largest one has a deep and shallow side with the deeper causing trouble for a jeep on 35s and the shallow being a non-event.

As far a technicality, nothing too serious, but I did end up using my lockers twice so there is something to be had.

Obligatory picture for the gram of me hardcore offroading with 31s


A word caution and advice:
Those water obstacles really aren't a big deal. But it is important that you keep momentum when going through them because at the bottom is really soft sand. If you slow down or stop (as I did on my way back) you could end up high-centered where no amount of lockers and crawl control can help. It ended up taking a passing-by Jeep 20 tries with the kinetic rope to get me out.

Overall it's a fun little trail.

 

Looks like good times yea had.

 

Glad you were prepared!! Comealong for the Win!

 

I am.one with the grinder. The grinder is one with me

 

What’s up guys. Looks like I may be getting back into overlanding the wife really misses our trips. So we are looking at buying truck just for this. Gotta be good for cross country. Found a 2001 Tacoma with 189k on it V6 looks super clean. What do y’all suggest for y’all that don’t know I’ve had 2nd and 3 gen Tacoma and built both
