Thanks Gordon.
Let me know what you think of Muenster. My cousin told me of it's existence, but he has never ridden there.
I think I'm just going to test some different floatation devices today. Anything to keep the breather out of the water will do fine.

I can tell you EVERYTHING you want to know about Muenster. That is our main riding place. We have been 11 times since March. 3500 acres of the following:
1. Sand ( a good area to play)
2. Trails ( from easy to scarry, rolling to climbing, rocks to wide open)
3. Creek about 2 miles long. (Creek changes with each rain. ONE quicksand pit that ALWAYS have kids stuck needing to be pulled out. Then they appreciate old men like me with a winch)
4. Red River access when the rain has not filled the Red River (about 5 miles from one end to the other in the Red River. Good hard packed sand. Kind of like where we were drag racing on the Canadian.)
5. Roads ( gravel to dirt)
6. Camping areas ($10 per site-- Has a 10X20 cover like a pole barn)
7. Pastures with Jumps
8. Rock climbs
Muenster is about 15 miles away. Bring, drinks, water, food, air tanks, supplies, etc as there is NOTHING but trails when you get there. We always stop in Muenster and get food and snacks. They have Trail bologna as good as Mikes. NOT crowded as there is so much area to ride you never run in to anyone, except in passing. The lady that owns the land is a dirt bike enthusiast. She loves us and wants a family atmosphere.
Cost is $8 per person. Well worth the money.
Come up 35 and cross into Texas
Have you passport handy as we will check
Go to Gainesville
Go west on Hwy 82 to Muenster
Turn RIGHT at the light ( only light in town)
Go north about 15 miles
Red River Trails is on the right.
There may be a way from a little town in Oklahoma you can cross the Red River from, But Idon't know the name of the town.
Call and we can hook up.

wel, thanks for the invite, but I think I am going to ride close to the house today. Going to go to purcell, it's only 15 min form me. I'll be there around 3 or 3:30, so if anyone is bored and wants to ride, I'll be there. I got a guy coming to look at my quad tomorrow, so this might be the last day I have it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Bob,
That's kind of a sore subject with me today. I broke ANOTHER axle on the grizzly. This time, I rode off of a 3 inch former river channel and heard it pop. I was going between 10 & 15 M.P.H. I plan to raise hell all the way to Mr Yamaha if I can find him. I had to wing it back in 4WD. I almost had a reoccurance in a deep spot and began having flashbacks. We only officially sank ane quad so it wasn't that bad. There were 10 quads and a lot of happy children, so it was a success.
Shane and I came to a startling conclusion today. Of the 1100 miles I have riden my Grizzly, I have only had 3 mishaps. I have broken both rear axles and attempted to drown it once. There were only 3 common denominators. Me, Shane, and sand. I can't be the bad luck charm because of the other 1050 miles or so. I have been on or near sand several times with no problems. I can't place it, but I'm forgetting the punch line.... Me, sand........ It's a good thing that I'm not superstitious.
All in all, A great day!!

Brink,
you dont have to feel so bad. A friend of mine drowned his grizz today at Purcell also. Matter of fact he also broke a front CV joint today. Something about grizzleys and sand. I had to pull him back about 3 miles to get tools and get it going again.
Other than that met some really nice people from Purcell and rode until about 10:30pm

Kevin, I did some more research on that problem today. The battery on the P700 is toast, you have to use the pull rope 90% of the time to start it. I have learned that low voltage will cause the deflection switch to not reset. We will try it with a new battery and it should work. BTW, thanks again for the help...
