Not any real damage as I can tell so far. It just appears to be a bent front rack which I'm going to try and bang out next weekend when I get back over to my brothers place to clean the quad. The only time it effected the riding is when I bottomed out on some of the trails.

I got an email from Inez, but I don't think she is on the site. I might send her the connection so they can get on and we can chat. There is also IMs i have all three MSN, Yahoo, and AOL so if anyone wants to do those feel free to ask and I will give you my nickname.

Howdy Jac and Stem--
I really had a blast Saturday and I'm glad to be able to put a name to a face including Lawnchpper and Suzukirider who met up with me in Chester. I give Stades Park good marks for a place to ride but what made the day was the chance to ride with new and different people, with everyone helping each other to get through some technical spots and not leaving anyone behind. By technical I mean deep nasty mud holes. Kind of cool to see you grow more comfotable with your machine and start testing its limits by the end of the day Jackie. Frank, it was awsome watching your son take his 125 through places most sport bikes were getting stuck as well as riding with someone else with a wheeler set up to handle the more challanging stuff slades had to offer. We will have to do it again soon.

-I made it to the ATV-VA meeting Sunday. They seem to have a nice club and I joined. The do a number of group rides over the year and they also ave 220+ acres open for members only to use. It is about an hour from me but for yall Middle penn'rs it is a few more clicks further. Located an hour+ west of richmond very close to farmsville.

Hey Andy, I caught my son last night on-line looking at the Artic Cat 250 4x4, I think he had a good time, thanks with your assistance with him. I've always liked the technical stuff, winches, rope,4x4,muscle,sweat and good nerves. It was a pleasure riding there with good company. It has always amazed me how total strangers could meet and trust/get along so well, because of four wheels and a common interest.

Sounds good, I mapped it from my brothers place and it is about 2 hours but for another place to ride it might just be worth the $60.

Okay glad I'm not the only hurting, I didn't want to sound like a whimp but the body ache is just starting to subside.

Not to be rude but lawnchopper which one were you? I met so many people with weekend it is hard to remember who is who...

Inez finally here! Just joined. I enjoyed riding Saturday at Slades very much. Riding with a group is a lot of fun. I will admit I was really tired yesterday. I swallowed lots of dirt, mud and sand and my head sure felt it. It was a perfect day, except my 4-wheel drive messing up. My hubby, Lee has been working on it the better part of the day, still trying to figure it out. Found front diff full of water ( wonder why) he cleaned all that, changed oil, flushed 4 times and now it won't go out of 4-wheel drive. The icon is still always on even in neutral and reverse....only cuts off when you select 2-wheel drive...any ideas?

Inez, this is Frank, I put that subject on nyrocatv and a fellow there said that there is a similar post on that in atvfrontier.com (under forums) he said it sounded like a sending unit or other electrical device got flooded. Was that the one that was stuck in the "big hole" when my son and I met ya? Good hearing from you, my nose was was full of concrete buggers Sunday. We had a little excitement in Gloucester yesterday didn't we?
