Ok I'll start it. four of us started it. Joe, Steve (Shoppe), Buckeye, and myself and family. At first I thought it might be a bust with all the plowing they did, but it ended up being fun. Had to do some driving around to find trails. Really only found one decent one and it was short. the one on the leftI went on last time was plowed up. We did alot of exploring though. did a few quick flex poser shots. I'm getting pics uploaded and will post some soon. I know Joe has a lot. It was nice having only a few people due to all the turning around we did. Had fun. see you on the next trail. No damage I had a funny noise but it went away on the way home.

Yeah, we had one real technical spot back behind the pit that was leveled. The hill itself was a bit of a challenge. The real technical spot was the back right path as you look down into the pit area from the overlook, you go straight and follow the ATV/Snowmachine trail until the small gate, go to the right of the gate and follow that branch. It gets a little tight and twisty, then you come across some really nice ruts that in the summer would be near impossible due to the mud, but they were just fine for my stocker, as long as I stayed out of the big hole on the one side. It came out onto the main road near the beginning of it, I can't understand how we missed it going in. Right before the big hill that goes to the right then you see the no trespassing signs, it's off to the right and you can see the trail through the woods.

Anyway, I'm downloading the pics from the camera now, uploading them to my gallery in a few.

Michael, akram has your radio so you can meet up with him sometime when you come to pick up your monty from Mousee.

Joe can I send you the pics I have. I'm having a heck of a time getting them loaded. I have them on the puter but the photo host is not working right.

[TJVigilante]

yeah, do you have a zip program like winzip or winrar? They're both free programs, you just install, select the pictures, right click and click "add to xxxxx.rar" if you use winrar(www.winrar.org) Otherwise you'll need to send like 10 emails. After you zip them up, you can send it to my email that I'll PM you in a second.

Got a cple to work so I'll put them up.

Ok sincie I couldn't get my pics to upload correct I put them on a new blog. http://www.akram-in-ao.blogspot.com/ Some pics are the same but oh well. See if that works.

[TJVigilante]

Anyone who needs picture hosting you can sign up on my gallery, link's in my sig. make sure I know it's you though!!! I can't believe I didn't think about that before.

[akram]

One thing I did forget. The tied rod hit on the old sway bar mount. Since there is no sway bar I'm thinking that thing is going away. I might decide to add one later but something has to be done anyway. also I started an album in the 06 ride gallery. Members shoud be able to add photos but not sure.

[TJVigilante]

Got mine up there, it works.

Sweet. Glad to see you guys out enjoying the warm weather. I't 30* and windy here.

[Ronster]

I saw you guys racked and stacked by the Gas Station on Sunday. I was on my way to work, so no dice.... Wish I could have been there!
