Busco!
The boys and I got home bruised and sore, the machines are bent and broken, and we had the time of our lives! Many, many thanks to our gracious hosts, the "Carolina Boys" (and girls as well). It was great to meet you all in person, and we'll be back for sure. I haven't eaten that much great food in years- we can't come back until we can work the extra weight off! The park is a wonderful place to ride and the people there were great. We'll have to make it a regular stop. The night ride was a blast and the playtime in the dunes Sunday morning was outstanding! What a great weekend!
I have a new-found respect for Argos. Thanks for letting us run your machines, especially puttin up with the boys' constant requests for stick time. You've got a great group started and I hope it expands and stays as friendly and fun as it is now. Thanks again guys, see you next time! Pics and videos to come Don

Just talk to George. He's still got 3 more hours of driving before he's home. He's says he's got tons of pics & videos. Can't wait to see them, and he sure did talk a lot about the great Southern hospitality. Looks like this could turn into a annual event?

We had a great time as well. It was great meeting you Don, Bud, and Q. and it was good seeing you again George. Thanks for driving so far and for letting us have some time behind the sticks of your Springer. What a ride!
The rest of you guys, it was of course good seeing you again too. Sorry we missed the second night ride and the Sunday morning fun but as far a places to ride go I would rate Busco Beach high on the list of Amphibious-friendly ATV parks. I didn't get too many pictures this time but I uploaded what I took in the gallery here: http://www.6x6world.com/gallery/showgallery.php/cat/596 I didn't get as much video as normal either but I will edit what I did get over the next week or so and post it when it's done. I can't wait to see George's pictures!

Well, I finally made it back. It was a very long ride but well worth it.
This place was great. I've only been riding at a handful of places but this place was by far the best. There was something for everyone. We were in mud, swamps, sand, woods, lakes, ponds....tracks! bowels! drag-strips! gullies, bridges...I mean there was everything! That was all very good but the best part was the company. 6x6World did it again. It brought together the very nicest and hospitable people you can imagine. This was the 2nd time I had the chance to enjoy Mike and McCoys' company. It seemed like getting together with old friends. It felt the same way with everyone else too. It was one laugh and joke after another. Everyone was eager to ask questions about my springer and answer the questions I had about Argos and the Max(es or en?). I also got to drive them! :-). As usual, whenever there was any mechanical problems, a dozen tool boxes popped up out of nowhere and wrenches started turning. The food was out of this world! There was real BBQ, grits, sausage, T-bones, country style ribs, chicken and chow-chow (or as we like to call it in NY, "Chi-Chi") Oh yeah....there was also chili...lots of it. Mmmmmm. OK, this trip has to become an annual event. The people and the place are just too great not to be revisited. Thanks to Mike, Jennifer, Lewis, Rob, Allie, Hunter, McCoy, Brian, Don, Bud, Q, Dan and Biscuit for a great weekend. Here's a postcard I picked up at the gift shop on my way out.

great friends, great food, and great riding... what more can i say. great to see everyone again, and to meet some for the first time. thanks to everyone for letting me try out the various machines. both Attex's were a blast to drive. if i had Don around to keep them tuned up i'd have 2 strokes in my machines! i love that throw you back in the seat throttle response. also thanks once again to McCoy's wrecker and tire service... not sure if i can go riding without you there to tow my butt out! i had a blast and can't wait to do it again (once i get some new front axles) pics and video will be up as soon as i get the bathroom stop edited out

Air Bud Bud
Here's Bud practicing to be a young Whipper. I cut the video just before the landing. It wasn't as pretty.
