Well, I was hoping to get to The Badlands this weekend to test out my rig before heading down to KS Wednesday. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find anyone that would go with me, but BurnedBronco wanted to head to The Cliffs today, so I decided last minute to go with him.

We started out heading over to the rock garden so I could test my new replacement rockers 🙂

…and I made sure to get nice and hung up on them 😉

Then Zach tried a brand new exit on trail #7

Then he went over to ‘wheelie’ tree on trail #11 to play.

Unfortunately on trail #21, a log jumped into my wheel and ripped out my valve stem, causing me to also lose my inner bead

Zach just can’t keep his wheels on the ground

…and one more I like

Overall, my Jeep seemed to work well, and didn’t fall apart….so that’s good. Few minor things to take care of, and it will be ready for KS next weekend 🙂

The second trail we hit this day was Rollins Pass East. It was definitely a nice trail….too bad it cannot be run all the way over the pass any longer.

Just got back a little while ago from Silver Lake sand dunes in MI and had a great time.

Here’s some pics from Saturday

After a week in CO, I’m back to midwest wheeling…..

Here’s my pics from today. Had a good time, as usual.

Enjoy!

Then we went and got dinner and headed back for a night run.
