Devil's Ditch/Conway, VA on the 18th (1 Viewer)

[stuck in GA]

I had a great time as well. Sorry I couldn't live up to my words and school the bronco, but I did make it up the hill climb faster than he did. Where are the pics and video? Lets see them. I didn't bring my camera so shame on me. Thanks again guys that was really an awsome trail ride!

A big thanks to Bob and Jeff! Without your spotting and knowledge of the trail, I doubt I could have made it through without damage.

Thanks, also, to Charlton and Jeff again for having the foresight to bring chainsaws.

OK guys. It's a big file, 429.85 MB and about 55 minutes. So right click and save it. It's Windows Media Player's format but also will play on Realplayer. I could make it 30MB but the size of the window would be less than the size of any of the avators. 56K connection might take couple days . But if you have cable, it will take about 5 minuts. I had a blast. It was great to meet you all.

So here you go:

BTW: Does any one have a PS Mirror that they would like to sell? . I could live without it but those ricers on the high way drives me nuts. Please PM me if you have one or know some one has one.

Thanks

....Still downloading

 

[Felix]

Five minutes to download, huh? I've got cable, and it looks like it's going to take an hour. Maybe my connection sucks.

Sweet riad,

Just watched the whole thing, too bad the battery died at the end.

Damn you, Comcast !!

 

[Riad]

Thanks guys. Next time I bringing back up batteries. Just put together my mirror, basically gathered up all the pieces and taped around it.It's back to 100% functional state. Also fixed up the flares. However, this morning noticed that the rear DS lower control arm is bent. I guess it is time to make that call to Slee .

It was good putting names with faces.

No smackdown, just a good time had by all.

 

[apcoleman]

Looks like you guys had some fun. Next time I should be able to come out and have some fun.

Thanks to everyone for a good time. Let's do this again when it gets warm enough to camp.

Yep, had a great time. Can't believe my radiator gaurd almost caused me to miss out on the whole trip.
I'll upload pics at work, dial up wouldn't work last night, spent all day today tuning my chain saw up and sharpening the chain for next time, and fine tuning a few more things on the rig.
I want to go back on the Graves side an explore some of those side trails off the main road. The way Zuki was talking they should be legal.

Be sure to post dates if/when you do.

Hey guys sorry I missed it. We had a radiator hose blow on 64 near gum springs while we were on the way there. We had to run back to richmond and get the trailer, engine did not sound to good I think it got a little hot. We will be working on it this week. I hope to make the next run up there and check it out.

On a scouting trip, I would be game almost any weekend, would probably be best if it was kept to 4-5 rigs since not sure how big or where the trails go. I have up until April 24th before I loose my play time.
Hoping to convert over to elec fan this weekend, I did punture the rad sat.

 

[Riad]

Yeah, I would like to go back there in March. It would be great to have another trip like this then, or camping like Bob said (if it gets warmer), or scouting but if you guys decide to go early, that's fine too, I just need to get a new pair of rear arms or fix the bented one.

 

[Felix]

Does anybody have anymore shots of the off-camber section at the top of the hill climb? I overheard Brandon and Josh talking each other through it on the CB, and it sounded a little dicey.

Also, does anyone have pics of what those trees looked like before Charlton and Jeff made quick work of them?

I second this! Time it right we could do Devils Ditch one day and Crozet the next.

I had a blast Saturday, glad to see everyone made it home OK
