    Lot's of people opting out.



    This will leave me confused on who to wait for in West Sac.



    If you're planning on going, but not arriving early to eat, please don't be late - or drive by and head to Cordelia.

    Ronie and I are still planning on meeting in West Sac. Will be gassed and ready for lift off at 7:15. See you at the Valero.

    The short answer is WE HAD A BALL!! Definitely worth a return trip IMO. 👏



    Some of the trails were more challenging for the newbies (like me 😲 ) than anticipated, but Brad spotted and got us through everything we attempted.



    Ronie got some pics and a couple of short movies. I'll see if I can get them posted up here in a bit.

    Ya, if you want to learn how to wheel, Brad is a good guy to have around.

    I used to wheel a lot. . .

    We had 10 vehicles total from grand cherokee to jk's. The wheeling was easy to moderate. The run had some mud and several fun water crossings. I think everyone had fun with them. Trail carnage included a lost track bar bolt and two sway bar failures, plus one computer problem where the abs went off continually causing brake smoking.



    We ate in a small town on the way back and had a great time. Several families were on the run with kids. It was a lot of fun.

    Well, I put together a movie of some of our experiences Saturday, but I'm unable to upload to Photobucket. My soundtrack it "copy-writed" ... NUTS! Will redo when I get a chance WITHOUT the :censor: soundtrack.



    GREAT TIME!

    Looks like someone enjoyed the water crossings!!!!



    😁 I still spent about 90 minutes cleaning under the Jeep THEN cleaned out the gutters ... but it was worth it! 👏
