A few pics from today playing
Just near my house in a farm area that a farmer said he was okay with me riding on when there are no crops in the ground...just messin' around.
The view before going down the hill
The view back up
Trying to show the steepness of the climb I was having fun on. I still have the stock tires on for what it's worth...
And two of the garage now that the cars were out. One corner shows the air station, etc. (sign was a Xmas present from a cousin, fyi)
And last one of full view.

Thanks, it's my winter configuration so if I want to use the trailer I don't have to brush the snow off.
It was funny, on the way up the first time I got up 3/4 of the way...then got a run at it and made it up without too much trouble. Then when I thought of taking some photos on the slope, putting it in park it was steep enough that I actually slid backwards a little bit that caused me to wonder if I would slide all the way back down...ha ha. They were pretty good I thought. No winching needed. I had them aired down to make a bigger footprint. Would be neat if I had the resources to simply drive back to the garage, swap the tires for some big horns or something and try it again with the exact same conditions.

Cool, nice pics and sounds like you were having FUN, thats what its all about.
Ever been to Hatfield and McCoy? Now those are some hills down there, talk about steepness. I know firsthand as I try to take one just a little too steep on one of the Black trails. You can click on my photo gallery here on the forum.
Cheers,

Nice Weber grill Chad. Have similar model in red. I love cooking on the Weber all year 'round. Don't get around to it as much in the winter, but fun to grill a steak sometimes when it's 20 degrees out. Need to modify the way you cook in the winter.
Looks great.
