Default Just got back from turkey bay!! (pics inside)

Went down to Land Between the Lakes national park to ride at the Turkey Bay OHV area with the local ATV club. I had an absolute BLAST! Not to mention it was the first time i'd ridden my new machine very hard and i am more than satisfied with it...i rode with 2 z400's (1 was modded), a raptor, a yz125, a kodiak, and a trailboss, and i could easily keep up on the trails, you're never going more than 50mph through the woods anyway [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

friday, the first day of riding, it rained ALL DAY, fairly hard most of the time. this shot was taken when we first got there, around 9AM, just before the rain started. You can see our trailblazer at the head of the group in the picture.

The group had a quest that day, and that was to find the elusive old silo, which was slightly out of bounds. It ended up being on the very edge of the park, next to the highway. The four of us were the only ones that actually got to it, the rest of our group separated and rode off somewhere else.

oh yea, here's me and the warrior after being rinsed off by the rain :shock:

Here's where stayed for the two nights, at the Wrangler camp (occupied mostly by, you guessed it, horse riders..so we couldnt start up the quads [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] )...anyway, we stayed in the "Rusty Spur" cabin....don't ask me i was just along for the ride.

I didn't take the any pictures of the ride yesterday because i thought my camera was done for, it'd gotten water-logged on friday, but thankfully it dried out.

This is the finished product: (note my pants on the edge of the ramp, getting dried off after being rinsed for 20 minutes)
THe trailer

Injuries sustained from the Trip:
Z400 (not pictured): broken taillight lens
Raptor: flipped it over forwards going down a hill, bent a nerf bar and some plastic
Warrior: popped a hole in a rear tire (luckily we had plugs), one of the ignition wires came loose, had to push start a few times lol
Trailboss: bent front rack, she smacked a tree.
YZ125: lost the kick starter somewhere in the woods LOL!
Kodiak: turned out fine lol
