Video quality isn't as good as I'd like due to the trial version of the editing software I had to use.

Looks like you guys had a good time, though the quality sucked.

This was the first time I made it that far. My first trip on that trail was, well just watch this video and you'll see why we didn't even venture beyond Holy Cross City.

The second time I had a little mishap...

OUCH!! That didn't seem to be in too much of a bind. What exactly happened there?? I'm assuming that was the front DS, am I right?

Great vids all 3 of them. Was that a popped u-joint on the front DS. Hope so cause that aint no place to change an axle shaft. The resolution was not the greatest but that may be camera limitations. Music was killer on the vid. Joe Walsh kicks.

What kind of trail repair did you use to correct that?

I welded it after tapping in back into shape with my 4lb hammer. Got home without any problems at all.

With my luck it would have just snapped off while trying to coax it back into place. Glad you got out with minor damage.

Year is still young. I'm one of those half empty guys as opposed to half full like you Frank.
