    If only we had built your tire swingout by now, Jim wouldn't have been able to drop a dime on your tire problem. Bad Jim. @JimSnell

    Yeah I was parked next to them. Cement grey and a black one? They were nice guys (would you expect anything else of Canadians?)...

    My buddy got their contact info. He mentioned that next year they want to do the WABDR, go the the NWOR and then continue up into BC for the Overland rally that is up there the following weekend. I can see if he will share their info so we can bug them about sharing some spots up in BC. My wife has been bugging me about taking her up there but I don't know where to go lol.

    Wish the NF roads around here required airing down and offered more challenges. Everything is maintained really well. Can't find a reason to air down unless it's an OHV park.

    Wife and I are headed up there next week, then up to Jasper. Need to scope out some easy forest road side trips to drive while we're up there.

    A freak thing that happens the first time I am out makes me wonder if it's more than a fluke. Ridge Grapplers to try something new, again. I think they look cool. :anonymous:
    I prefer a nice camomile lotion and a strong...
    Yeah, seeing the old girl there hit me in the feels a bit.
    There's a company that builds a bumper that uses a system similar to that tire carrier I sent you and it has ruined a local dude's hatch... Kinda second guessing it now.
    I'll be there in September.
    Yeah, 8psi was my go-to in snow with the Duratracs. 12 elsewhere.



    The response from this crowd is so much different than the GX crowd. Everyone there said I was an idiot for even considering such a "small tire" on an 8.5" wheel.

    I walked by it slowly many, many times. About brought a tear to my eye when you drove by us on the first morning. That thing sounds so damn good.

    she is a smart lady. You should totally do it. There are many ways to get there, but if you go through northeastern Washington there are some amazing views along the way.

    If you plan on going to Banff, be sure to go a little further up to Jasper as well if you have time. Jasper is much less commercialized than Banff and awesome views around Moraine Lake.
