    Awesome!! Stoked to see u guys!

    Jerry, everything in the Upper Lake area is fire roads. They'll be muddy and slick, but no real wheeling. However, if you continue on the m1 for approx 30/45 min you reach Lake Pillsbury basin, which has some fun trails and 4x4 goof off areas... I was thinking of bringing it up to everyone at coffee tomorrow, see who's interested in making the trip over to Pilz.

    It makes for a lot of driving, but it is really the only place with actual trails. The upper lake area is all fire roads, but has better selection of Xmas trees...

    I am truly sorry for your loss buddy. Mine passed away last year and was so far off by the time I got there she couldn't talk even though the holiday before we talked all the time (like 1 month prior). Was sad holding her hand and talking to her all night just wanting her to speak one last time to me. Find comfort in her words and that you got to have that last conversation. I pray for you and your family.

    Thank you sir. I know the connections and grounds are solid, Forerunner set it up and tested the connections for me. I didn't have time to tune. Should be fine, but wanna make sure.
