Well since it's my choosing and all how about we meet up @ 8 and head out. I hate getting up at the ass crack of dawn.

[slowimport96]

I have never been to red river, what type of riding would this be? Rocky? Sandy?

[5.0_CJ]

Lake Murray for sure imho.

[76 Maverick]

8 am is the crack of dawn but i'm up for it. Just figure out what time yall want to meet and i'll be there.


Lake murray gets a little boring at times. Fun place to ride but better done in moderation. :D

[FastFord19]

Damn I wish I could go. I just got home from hunting/riding in New Mexico though.

[GARS04]

I might be down for a day trip.

Works for me! Weather looks good so far, supposed to be cold in the morning but warms up nicely. Shouldn't even need ice for the cooler.

Don't you have to be a member to camp there on a weeknight or do they consider Friday night not a weeknight?

Did the Brute get stuck?

In that picture, the brute and the grizz were stuck...even the polaris in the back.

Btw - I highly recommend letting Greg (not big greg) test drive your brand new, two week old machine. :) make sure you plan on new handle bars.... I had a blast guys!

Someone else wrecked your ride? :mad:

Isn't that always how it happens?

Not exactly. It was more or less a group effort lol. Went up a hill that it probably shouldn't have gone up and it got high centered at the top. Got it past that part, and noone was riding it, but I was behind it and Greg was at the handle bars. It was only 3 feet to the top, i told him to hop on and ride it up. He did but at the very top it went to the left and the right rear got caught in the rut again and it went up and back over on top of Greg but he wasn't seriously hurt. His hand may be swollen today. Not a big deal, i'll have the bars straightened out today :) We almost had them straight yesterday on the trail, they just need tweaked a little more. Good times. We didn't realize we had an audience though till it was back on all fours.

FWIW... i'll be going back Jan 10th 2009 (guys from LS2.com) if anyone wants to go! Maybe start a new thread?

[HybridZ28]

i wish i could have went :( damn clutch cable LOL

[mustangguy289]

I finally had time to put the other 4 wheeler back together and it started first try. So we will try join you guys soon after the Holidays die down. Looks like we need to get some helmets though.

[jtm98snake]

Had a great time out at RR. Much more technical riding than Lake Murray. Definitely have to give it another shot soon.

[Buick355]

i wuz there

I barely made it in on the 4x4 and actually had the rope tied and was being pulled at the top where the Honda flipped but I will give you credit man, I don't know if I would have tried that hill on my Raptor! haha

I didn't even realize you were snapping pics of us stuck in that mud/sand pit. That stuff was like quick sand......every time I spun it seemed like it sunk two more inches. Im getting a winch!

It was a lot of fun, my first time out there on the 4x4 and it was a blast. We had to leave earlier than we wanted to but had to get back, turns out just in time though as the cold air was coming on pretty strong while we were loading up.

Nice meeting everyone and can't wait until the next trip!

I knew you were going to post that up. I did feel bad for fllipping your ride. The sad thing was I went up that hill on my 4x4 with ease. My ground clearance is pretty good and I did not get stuck at all. Then I felt like we could get Jeff's up there no problem. That damn thing had so much power that I thought I could fly and believe me I saw nothing but the sky. ;) Damn light ass front end.

BTW, my hand is a little sore but it is all good. Still kind of feel bad for that. Probably the reason I don't like getting on someone's ride. That hill was pretty steep even for me.

I have never seen so many RZR's in one place ever. Those things are awesome. For the first time I saw more of them that Rhino's.

Nice meeting Jeff and Billy and some of the others out there. Next stop is Murray for me. Will be taking the camper and other rides sometime next week I think. Jeff pm me your number and if I owe you anything for flipping your ride.

I just ordered a Warn RT15 on Ebay for $229, doubt it'll be here before this weekend though. There have been a couple of times where I could have used one and it'll really come in handy when loading my Raptor (2500 Dodge tailgates are pretty tall). That and hopefully the extra 20 pounds or so over the front end will help keep the wheels on the ground:)

Nah! All in good fun! I took an 8' foot pipe and straightened it out today :) looks good as new, infact, i bent it flat and bent the other side to match, little more comfy now. We should have put that rope to the front of mine and it would have never done that. Ohwell. Might see it with a winch next time haha.

I grew up riding a trx250 2wd that I have honestly been up steeper hills than that on! It definitely had more front end weight and no clutch which i'm sure would have made it easier. Clutch + Steep hill = VERY tricky.

There is a group of us going Jan 10th to RRMT again... you guys are more than welcome to come with! I'll start a new thread for it.

Bring that Raptor out, I want to see how bad I beat it :D

[DoesSpeedTurnUon]

Hell, i'm thinking about putting one on the XX! :D

Sure, the only downside I see is added weight and the thing already weighs 400+ pounds.

Yeah i'm also thinking it doesn't look that hard from the vantage point of that picture.

[SNEAKY]

Sure, the only downside I see is added weight and the thing already weighs 400+ pounds.the weight is gonna be on the nose, that thing is gonna handle like shit, and what about power? the stock battery ain't gonna last long when you are winching out. plus, why are you playing in deep mud on a raptor?

[markh1]

Look's like the waterfalls at RRMT :D

I'd rather have one and not need it than the other way around. Will be used primarily for loading the quad into my truck. I HATE riding up my ramps. One time I did a wheel stand and it scared the crap out of me, ever since then I've been nervous.

[SNEAKY]

Larry looks familiar....haha. :D
