Oh, & for Pre-Turkey run, we've got the trail to test Matt's 40" sticky's & Richard's new buggy... 'Chocolate Thunder'. It makes Resolution look like a drive to Starbucks:scared:

Good times. I forgot the camara at camp so no pics from me.
It pays to be in front of Ron though. Nice shots Ron. My new desk top.

Resolution is my new favorite trail.

Chocolate thunder scares me. Here's a link to pics of that trail

You guys suck!

I've totally lost track of how many times you guys have been out there and I couldn't go. :smsoap:

So, what all did you guys run this trip? And where's that new trail?

I'm going to have to eliminate anything not mandatory to get this thing wheelable now that Kathy is home for a good while. It may be ugly, but it will work. :)

My junk was so unfinished this trip that I almost didn't want to go, fortunately, Dave forgot his camera & didn't get the pics that he threatend to post.

Saturday Ron & I ran Lower & Upper big, then headed over to Jack Back.
Coming down Jack Back my box started squirting oil due to a cracked ear so we took it off & Ron took us down Jack & back to camp for a new box. We met Dave at camp & headed back for my junk. After replacing my box we finished up the rest of Jack & ran over to Sledge.
Sunday we ran BD & Resolution, then went exploring for Dirty Sanchez & Chocolate Thunder.
They're both basically in the hills to the West Wrecking Ball.
I don't know if we'll run Chocolate, it's that nasty...

Very nasty stuff. Peer pressure required. :D

Looks like the red paneled Hendrix rig in Dave's Pirate link found out first hand about that hole on the first climb.

I guess the upside would be is that it'll be easy to get Matt outta there flopped before he really even gets on the trail... that is if the hole there doesn't swallow his whole rig. :D

Called AGR to order a new box & even though I'm out of warranty & I didn't ask about warranty, they offered to replace it for $150. For an extra $50 they're setting it up for hydro assit, which I may never run, but it seems worth it just in case.

Damn, they offered me cost on replacing a brand new blown seals and spool valve unit. I guess I'll have to see what they'll ding me for on the other 2 units I have sitting here in the same condition.

Ya man I speak from experience......

The things I've been through with these guys!

Ten things I've experienced from the passengers seat with their crew:


1. Your ass will really hurt, especially with those all-night rides.

2. They really ream stuff out, and last time avery ran out of lube.

3. The call me all sorts of things like their slave, b**ch, whore, all sorts of degrading names.

4. They made me move boulders like an eqyptian slave.

5. I'm always volunteered for getting pictures of all their crazy stunts.

6. They did provide me with goggles so stuff wouldn't get in my eyes.


7. They made me pose in front of this thing and told me not to tell anyone about it.

8. One time they let ROBERTK join in for the fun, he's a really big guy.


9. The call one of the guys in their gang philythy phil. He was wearing a cowboy hat as i got hammered.


10. They took me on one adventure they called sh*t eater. You can imagine what went down there.

I've been around that crew at JV from GoatFest and the SoCalXJ Jambo. All that stuff doesnt surprise me. :D I think I'm more obscene than they are. So I'd fit in. Except my spotting skills are spotty.
