I deleted the old thread to start one with concrete information:

We have planned another ride in North Carolina for the weekend of April 4th. Some of us are planning on going down Friday the 3rd and staying until Sunday the 5th. If you haven't been on a ride and can make it I encourage you to come out and ride with some other AATVs even if just for a day. We always have fun and love meeting others from the site.

Here's the info:

I look forward to meeting some of you from the site that I haven't met yet and getting in some good 6x6 riding. I have the event added to the calender so that you can get an email reminder when it gets closer to time. Here's that link: http://www.6x6world.com/forums/calen...8&day=2009-4-3

Now that it's over, I deleted the 31 pages of "planning" posts so that everyone can talk about the ride here in this thread. It was great to meet so many new members and put a face (and real name) with a user name. Thanks for making this the best NC event yet!

Here a little of the action at Busco. I missed some of the best shots because i was having problems with my camera, but here are a few good shot of several members and vehicles. Didn't get lewis, sorry, but that ARGO SWIMS GREAT WITH THE NEW TIRES AND I NEVER SAW HIM GET STUCK.

Great video, MMIV- thanks for posting it. It looks like you had a great time, wish we would've been there. We won't miss the fall ride, glad to hear it's already being planned. How do you like the Argo, liflod?

Thanks for the video, and all the ones to come. Looks like a good weekend! See ya in chat tonight.

Did I see liflod in a 6 wheel conquest??????? or should I quit on the margaritas? Wow, that was weird, Lance A stubby, nose heavy bulldog your first impression?

I had such a great time yesterday. The only bad part was having to leave before dinner.

There were a lot of great people and great machines. I learned so much by watching others go through the holes.

I'd like to thank Mike again for having this forum, which brought all of us together for the ride this weekend. As I told him, I would not have bought a 6x6 of any kind without seeing the amount of information on this site, and I wouldn't have chosen a Max II if I didn't see the videos of what he can do with the vehicle.

I'll be heading to Busco at least once a month since I live so close. If anyone wants to hook up there for a day ride, let me know.
