l8r, John

 

sweet might be up to go in the future if I can, I love wheeling but I still owe on my truck so I probably wont do any thing realy tretcherous, like that mud pit in the first pics, being that I'm not lifted yet. dangit! oh nice pics by the way

 

Haha, looks awesome dude. To bad there is no way my truck could do that stuff.

 

most of those have "by-passes" like the pit he went through and the water crossing and the hill climb is in one of the "challenge" areas.... i don't like em' much

my truck only has a 2" leveling puck on the front to help with the weight of the winch....other wise stock

like i said before they have plenty of trails for stock vehicles

thanx for the props on the pics...those are just the ones i had time to take, we were out there on the trails for 4+ hours, just havein' too much fun to stop and take a bunch of pics 9 in fact most of the pics were from things i wouldn't do with my mostly stock truck

as you can see

wasn't turkey bay closed for a while?

 

Thats a good little ways from Evansville.

 

maybe if we have another meet it could be around there that way those whom want to wheel can and it would have pleny of photo opportunties, js/an Idea, that's if enough people come and are interested.

 

it was closed for awhile after the big ice storm we had in Jan.

and yeah, i know more advanced planning is needed for a bigger turn-out down there....was only saying me and a couple others were goin this Sunday if anyone else is interested

Evansville is less than an hour from Madisonville, and i can get to Turkey Bay in an hour.... so figure 2 hours tops

if enough are interested......wanna plan something in say Sept. ?

let me know, John

 

Sounds good to me. Depends on when Jeweler54 plans the fall meet over his way though for me to.

 

^^Railman^^ that's cool man, just saying why we were only having it one day, hehe, what day in sept, are thinking like a sat or something?

 

to be honest, would like a Sat. and Sun.

that way those that have a drive could spend more time on the trails than the highway. or for the ones that could make a Sunday and not a Saturday and vice-versa

also, since it is $15 for a 3 day pass ( smallest they have ) and the camping is like $8, would make it more interesting for those that are driving farther

but, if anyone is interested for this Sunday pm me

l8r, John

 

awesome, hey after this meet we should start a thread to get the word out if any one is interested, well it don't have to be after this meet, if you want start one up and see who all you can get to come, I'm down for it if nothing happens.( the spt trip I can't this sunday)
Thought I would ad a vid, hehe! these are out in peabody in muhlenberg, Ky


Nothing very technical just having some fun!

 

Hey Members, The meet we (Me and Railman) are planning in Sept, we would like to make it both a meet/greet and a wheelin trip...for those who don't want to wheel there rides, but want to go on the trails, you can bring a 4 wheeler/dirt bike if you have one, or you could you could ride shotgun with a fellow member...For those wondering, yeah, thats my little truck at the top of this page...
Me seeing how much rear clearance I had with the help of my dually, I know, I'm crazy
