So anyone else

anyone else getting hooked to a strap? haha. If it is not a muddy mess I plan on being up Sunday and possibly Monday. Have a wedding in Ames on Saturday that screws up the whole day.
 
we are planing on being there with a few more locals in tow possibly.
 
I need to make it up since I am a dues paying member, but I bitch out easily when it comes to hauling an hour and a half to play in the mud....I hate mud!
 
the MIOBI website is gone...what happened? I was going to print off some more fliers for the local guys.......I am still in the air of wheelin or going to the lake......
 
yeah i dont no what happen to the website it was down for a while its back up and going now.

So for you guys that dont like mud this would have been a great weekend for you guys to come down the weather was great. And it was a blast. Here a few pics of my comanche.



So I twisted the drive shaft this weekend after getting hung up on the rocks at camp I thought it would have lasted a lot longer than it did. I made it clear down by the creek before it went out.

The start of the rock Garden at camp

About ½ way down the rocks

Made it (the fist time)

Stuck on the rocks this was my second trip down and I wanted to get to the right so I would miss a tree that I got hung up between the first time. Well I got a little to far right and ended up stuck this is also where I dented/twisted my drive shaft.

Drive shafts, there not suppose to look like that right??

Trail fix so I could drive it out in front wheel drive. It a Gatorade bottle end black taped and zip tied to the tail shaft. Made it back to camp like that and didn’t spill a drop of tranny fluid.

Good pics man. I wish I was there to wheel but we had some unforseen problems occur on the farm. After my morning started so sh*ty, I was not going to take off at noon to head up for a few hours of wheelin'. Maybe next time. I have made the Toy's for Tot's run a few times, so that will probably be my next opportunity to get up there unless there is a weekend that is a few members getting together.
