Gulches Challenge - 3rd time is a charm

[LBarr2002]

3rd attempt at the Gulches Shitbox Challenge this Saturday, 5/8. Who's planning to go?

I'm just going to drive the jeep up and watch for a while.

I might be down. The wife will be out of town and I’m looking for something to do anyway.

Are the trails open that day?

Are the trails open that day?

Yeah, we'll probably ride a little. I'm not going to mess with towing because it will probably be busy, so I won't be doing anything too crazy.

Looks like the weather is going to be beautiful!

DJ and I went up for a while Saturday. The event was ok, not as rowdy as I expected. They had people going up the right "easy" side of Radical Ravine so people either broke in shipwreck or made the whole course.

After watching for a little while we rode TNT, Heartbreaker, Rocker Knocker, Palmetto Crossing, and Sidewinder.

I didn't take a single picture. In the event, there were a few broken control arms, broken drive shafts, etc. One cherokee was on tons running little skinny on stock steel wheels and axle hopped like crazy and broke. There was a rollover that I missed, but it looked like it flopped going back down the slab. They did more damage in recovery than the flop.
