Well, yesterday's trip to the Gulches was a lot of fun except for-----On the way up there we blew a trailer tire:crying: Then once on the trail-the Grand Poobah was the first one to attempt Trail #7, and broke his axel shaft:banghead: A quote from Nick"FBG has wood". Haha. There was a lot of wenchin, and Charles(broncosbybart) broke his rear axel shaft I think. Over all it was a beautiful day, and I really enjoyed hangin with Clay,Charles,Nick, Chuzie, and of coarse my man. Thank you all for a great time that was full of laughs and cut ups!! Can't wait for the next trip.

Is it just me or is there something about Chuck and breaking axle shafts??? :hysterical: I hate blowing trailer tires ... happened to us going to Uhwarrie one year and we blew 3 dry rotted tires - thank goodness for Northern Tool having them in stock and us buying multiple spares (with plans on returning them).

Looks like a fun day .. glad the weather was nice too Confusedupergrin:

No, keep the 1 tons and get rid of those gargantuan tires. 39 or 37 will give you the challenge you want without the carnage.
