We\'re having a big birthday BBQ tomorrow, so we\'re out on wheeling.


While you are there, can you talk to Charlie and go scout the \'other\' land. Then set up a club trail cutting?

ya, well at night driving alone, i can make it down in 3.5 hours usually, i had to change a trailer tire, so it took me just under 4 to get down Saturday night.

I had zero plans to meet anyone, but was glad to see the park pretty full when i pulled in late.  Ended up wheeling with some of the Rightcoast guys.  

Had the oppertunity to do a lot of go fast testing.  Learned its way too much motor and suspention for my driving skills currently!  Very happy, just a few little issues most of which i already knew about that need to get fixed.  still having a fuel pressure issue at sustained speed.

ran cemetary first, which is currently considered one of the top 5 hardest trails in the park.  No issues at elivated speed crawling.

Glad you didn\'t wheel alone.  Too many risks.

I couldn\'t find \"cemetary\" trail on their map.  Where is it?

it\'s down the hill off south property.  you\'ll need a very fresh map to see it, it\'s new.

Rausch has a 2 rig minimum, wheeling truly \"alone\" isn\'t allowed there.  Nice to hook up with some friendly faces though.

ya, i tried once the just sign in to go get fire wood when i got there one time alone before dark on a friday, melisa was unsure, lynn said no :(

( had a season pass, so it didnt matter)

Melissa also told me i have paid for my season pass twice over, and that doesnt include the times lynn doesnt write it down in the book.
