Default I recruited another new ATV'er!

Well, a co-worker of mine got a good tax return and I helped him spend it on a new 2008 Sportsman 800. He is addicted! He has a permanent grin and he can't believe he is 28 years old and hadn't done this sooner! Here are some pics of us riding the other day down the Applegate Trail/historic Frain Ranch in southern Oregon. It was a great day with plenty of mud. He didn't hold back and hit EVERY mud hole he could find! LOL! Oh, and that's me in the wife's sp700 x2.....(mine still has the tracks on it). She wasn't as happy when she saw the pictures! And for the record, that wasn't really mud I was stuck in, it was a swampy area filled with goose sh@#! It was disgusting to say the least! I found a log buried underneath and kept getting stuck on it! After a couple of passes through I beat it!

Nice job. I just upgraded my ride and roped a buddy of mine into buying his first quad a couple of weeks ago; a 2008 500 X2.

We've had a blast and he's learning the ropes. I may have created a monster though Of course we have raised the bar for a few of our buddies though.

Hey, the more people involved the more fun it is!

I just got my tracks off the other day or two. What a PITA getting them off and cleaned up / stored. Next time it'll go quicker.

Wow...Can't image that. I'm very excited with the tires. The difference is like night and day. I was smiling when I took my first rip. Love the tracks, don't get me wrong, but the wheels and tires are a nice change. Yeah, and the gas.......no comparison there. I can tell just foolin' around in the woods around my house that the mileage is much better.
