went to a friends
I have a friend that had about 2 acres with trails cut here and there as well as perimeter.
but we have not taken a ride there in about a year and he has been too busy with other things so it is a bit grown over so we volunteered to run the trails to beat them back down. that was fun for a bit but we have to cut up a few fallen timbers to complete some of the trails. then I tackled the mud pit. last time i tried this mud hole I got stuck all the time because i had crappy tires and a crappy carb.....things were different this time :wink: http://s58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...lsplace001.mp4 http://s58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...lsplace002.mp4 still think it bogs down like that because i am not using enough throttle in the beginning??? why they do not make bigger fenders on sport quads I will never know but then I wouldn't look this great for pics if they did now would I??

If there was an Olympic medal for mud it would be worn by a proud Canadian right now. 8)

Mrs. Weldangrind made a really bad face at the site of those pics.

We love trail riding, but we're not big on mud.

You have rightfully earned the "greasy mud award," MidLife! The mud here in Idaho is much thicker.

Sorry man, that pic is disturbing...haha.
Is that a bolt protruding from the rear fender just above the tail light...hate to think where that might end up if you ever got bucked up and off the back of that quad? Keep some lube on that just in case...Is that original equip.? |

It would be good for the fist few feet or one tire revolution. Then it would be covered in mud and rendered useless. :wink:
