What a great night!!! this is from SONIC on another forum...
the thread is entitled Jeebus is a toad licker LMAO!



I had not decided what to call this thread when I started uploading pictures, but somewhere in the middle it just came to me.

When I got home yesterday, I got PMs from Tibaal AND Trailbus. They had put together a night run to Chiva falls. I of course had just put on my sissy ass street wheels after the whole Summit / Moab run and thought I had it out of my system.

After a brief meet and greet, we aired down and headed to the trail
I chose the first crazy obstacle at Three Feathers since I knew I would be taking the bypasses the rest of the night. (or at least some of them)

Tibaal (Mike) amazed us all by once again running flawlessly down The Chute with precision guidance from Jake (although I think all his dash lights may be stuck on sometime very soon)

Since Mike did not actually get any damage on the Chute, he decided to smash up his door and leave behind his insanely expensive camera. This should somehow make up for it.

Did I mention Jake is a Toad Licker?

A little further up the trail Abbott found some water to cool his heels (do dogs have heels?)
OH NO....don't look too closely you might see Jake's next victim.

You do not have to wonder what this guy is on.

(And I probably do not have to remind you that Jake is a toad licker....but I will)

It was not long before Abbott got his first victim. He chased this lil feller right out in front of Jake, who dispatched him with blinding speed.

The lunch stop was a complete bug fest. There were enough bugs to feed an entire Ethiopian village. Sorry I did not get any pictures of that, but between eating ribs with my hands, and spraying DEET on everything, I did not feel too much like picking up the camera.

At the next creek crossing Tibaal treated us to another one of his classic hillclimbs. (no camera tricks were harmed in the making of this picture)

Just when you think the madness will end. Mike ran his FJ UP THE CHUTE! Which is an honor just to watch. I have only seen a handfull of rigs dare to TRY this line, let alone make it.

Being the attention wh0res we are, there is never a chance to pose that goes unnoticed. This night was no exception.

Oh My GOD! I almost forgot to mention. If you look real hard between Tibaal's and my FJs in the pictures you will see something new.

That is right, we ACTUALLY INVITED MICROBE!

And not one of those last minute "Hope this isn't too short of a notice" kind of things.
Good wheeling with you buddy!

For all the joking we did on the last thread, it felt good to actually meet up and go wheeling!
Maybe this should have been titled...

The First annual wheeling with Microbe night run.

So I have video of myself running up the middle of three feathers at 12:30 am like nothing...everyone did some stellar driving it was a great time! Colorado river toads everywhere, canyon tree frogs chirping, 100's of kangaroo rats minus 1 by abbot OOOPpps! I spotted Tibaal up and down the shoot he did really well.
 
Frick yea! I never post on here because the forum would never render correctly on my computer... that problem is gone all of the sudden. The invasion has begun! :p
