Ditto!

Siting here drinking coffee......

Yesterday Reddog fried two front wheel bearings, got that fixed last night.

Goat has troubles with his heap, shocker!!

Easy mellow day yesterday cooked over a hundred brats, sausages last night and they all got eaten!!

Off to run Pyeatt soon.

Just thought I'd post up and say howdy.

Talk about a mid-week teaser!! Stay safe!

Fixed it for you...

100 Brats

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I may not make either or both of the days I signed up for (Wed and Thurs).

I thought I had signed up for those days to run Payette/Log Corral, but I may have been mistaken. Is Rocker Panel Pass the trail off of Sycamore Creek that Datz broke his front axle on, just as he was starting the trail?

Oh, and more gory details of Goat's mishaps, please. So much more fun to give him crap that way.

-Spike

Lots of breakage today - 2 driveshafts, 1 axle, 1 shock mount, 1 taillight , I think that's it. FUN trail!! Will do again!

Tomorrow is log corral.

Oh, that is messed up. Anyone from the run who posts details must post at least one picture from the run. You guys should not be allowed to have so much fun!
Lator....

Oh, I forgot leaf spring & tie rod. Whiteman is doing a part run today to locate the leaf spring, tie rod & tail light. I am bringing a spare driveshaft out with me. The other driveshaft was fixed w/ a spare on the trail w/ much welding and cutting required to fit. The axle was fixed w/ a spare on the trail. The shock mount was fixed at the trail.

Our photographer from Four Wheeler will be out today.

Should be a good day, Tater.

Goat is home and will unload and then get the rig ready to be sold. I have playd macanic for long enough and it could of cost my dads'and I's lives. "Long story short" I droped a draglink whill making a U-turn. I can't aford to take it to shops to have it fixed all the time, so I need to get reid of it.

I ducked out a couple of days early too... no problems, all is good. I broke an exhaust mount (on the washboard road by camp), and had a leaky beadlock on Pyatte (sp?) yesterday.

I am very impressed with how my truck drives, and am starting to develop good line picking skillz too

I wish I were able to stay the whole week, but oh well.

Sorry to hear that, my friend. I guess the situation just crossed the line from being comical to being depressing. If the rig has to go, I hope you find something else to take it's place that won't give you so many headaches.

I hear XTerra's with SAS's perform nicely.

Here are the Pictures I took..

These are of Day 2 and the start of Day 3.

Today was interesting. Started the trail with 17 (I think) trucks, but only 5 of them actually did the trail. The others got held up due to breakage and trail repair took so long that the rest of the group turned around and went back to camp. I was one of the 5 that did the trail and it was FUN and will do again.

Dinner tonite was fried turkey and pineapple upside down cake - sadly, I had to leave before it was ready.

I'm not going tomorrow but will head out again Friday for Sunflower and the major friday night party.

I actually popped up for awhile today. Got to meet everyone and hear stories about breakage. Sorry I missed Greg and Robert.

Yesterday's breakage was minimal. Andy sheared the bolt off his shackle mount so that had to be repaired on top of a bunch of rocks in a creek - much fun. Keith and his poor tie rod showed itself again. I *think* the only other breakage yesterday was when Ivan backed into Georgie. There's video of a strap hooked to the Mog and hooked to Ivan's back bumper trying to fix it - yeah, it didn't work.
