So true[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] But what was nice is, I had that stuff already at the house[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] So, I'm only out the cost of the paint[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] if, I decide to change things[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] I really don't plan on pulling to many things with it. Quad doesn't weigh enough, to do that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] So, basically, it will be for self recovery. Though, I am up to try anything, at least once[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Had a blast out there.

Had a nice relatively dry ride with a couple on Friday afternoon when I got there. It rained a little on Saturday. Not a lot, but enough to have to pull the chairs under the shade ramada (where I pitched my tent. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] ) It did rain like crazy Saturday and Sunday nights.

Rancho Rd was in it's muddy glory on Sunday and the freaking MC riders trying to ride up it. I know I hosed a couple. And blackshot got one when he got stuck. Heck, I think the whole group got one guy one time. Track was in different conditions. Anywhere from sloppy to awesome.

Drive home was dry except for Los Banos to 99. Had some good heavy downpours in that area.
Skinner, glad you didn't get all that WET[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] We had some down pours here[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] HAd one cell go through (must of been the one mstr saw on doppler) wind was howling, rain blowing sideways[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Really had to close the hatches[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

You knew the mc riders, were going to be in your riding equations[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] Glad you had fun and stayed dry[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I'm LMFAO[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] You guys are killing me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I'd say it's a little over kill[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] ok, a lot, that stuff is heavier, then what my neighbor has holding his 12000 lb Warn[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I prefab all of it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Had my neighbor weld it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I could of, but, decided to let him do it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Thanks on the checker plate. I had it sitting around and after paying an arm and a leg for it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] glad I could incorporate it. I figure, if I go fast enough (like Festus) I can plow through or over anything[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

If I damage it, I don't want to see my caracass either[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Dam one of these days i gonna have to get some pictures of my log jumpin bumber that bolts on my warrior. hmm i wonder if it would bolt on the rap??? might have to check it out. Since the radiator is aover where it goes i dont think it should cause overheating problems. would have to paint it red instead of johndeere green though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] good ol recycled gaurdrail. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
