And it's still heavy even when empty.

I think jetting may be a bit off. I have a JD Jet kit on it's way.

Nice log hopping.
Sure looks like a EZ path around the back of the stump.
Funny how you get focused on what is in front of you and not what your options are.

Sure, but anybody can go around the log. Where is the challenge in that?

I'm right there with you. I almost never wreck/crash but falling down? Yeah, I've done that once or twice (per trail). :)

Sounds like a good time. I've got to get down there one of these days.

The tree was down bc of all the rain, sort of mini mudslide. I think you would have buried your tires trying to go up and around the stump. Im pretty sure the log was the easy option.

I tried to make it not look so easy. Hence the reason I fell.......... on purpose?

Thanks Phil for getting things organized and taking Cj with you. We couldn't have had a better time both grandsons are ready to go back. They both learned a lot. I have some video if I can get Kevin to edit it.

I just cobbled together a mount for the chinbar of my helmet. The next videos should be even better.

New throttle cable and brake pads went on today. Everything works as it should now. I suspect the throttle issue I was having was due to the gritty mud I forced into the throttle tube when I bit it at speed in a puddle. Eagle Bay this weekend for me.

Thanks again for organizing this trip, Phil. I want to go back this fall. Perhaps sometime after the S500?
