    Just watched a video of @pearing over at Apple Valley farms a few weeks back. (Video was on my buddy's Eric's phone) I'll try to post it if it will let me. But I'd try to fix that tire rubbing up front before you head to Ark.

    I wonder if it was a video that I uploaded.

    The video I took of that Heep coming up the hill has 1.8k views.
    Pat's uphill excursion is lacking with 659 views....we're never gonna get the flatbed viral at that rate.

    At AVF, when I had both rear wheels in the air. That 'brake stomp', as @Stoney Ranger put it, was unintentional.
    My foot was, indeed, on the brake.
    The stomp ocurred on decent when everything on the front and back seats ended up on the floor.
    I just about ate the steering wheel and my foot shoved the brake through the floorboard.
    Guess I wasn't anticipating 'Pat-like' trails.
    Thought I'd secure some things down for next time.
    :rofl:

    Check out the on board air!

    Like to see it if you can get it. Rubbing is just the tire into the fender. They are smashed up some but not enough... I have tried.

    Just give me a heads up before you head out, I got a lot of things going on right now but I'd enjoy wheeling with you all , as long as it's Not in Tigerton. Not a big fan of the Park. For Beginners.

    Meteorological Spring started Friday. ;)


    "Beginners", lol.

    You must have stuck to the perimeter road when you went there.

    There was another recovery incident recently. Some blaming a generic soft shackle, one comment blamed the recovery vehicle for pulling too hard/fast.

    Either way, a good reminder to be careful, and don't try to cheap out on recovery gear.

    Also, another reminder that kinetic ropes can be extremely dangerous. I personally consider them a last resort at this point.

    Idk, at Tigerton I’ve seen easy areas and extremely difficult areas. Hell, the trees there have been known to box you in to the point of needing to be winched out!

    I should assume you're just talking trash.

    But, anyone who has actually done the difficult trails would not say that they're for beginners. You're either trolling, or you haven't really been through there. There's plenty of spots to get stuck, or break stuff.

    True, the challenging areas aren’t really on the map they supply.

    Congrats on winning the battle! Now you’ve got practice on that job in case you need to do it on the trails.
