Wish I could have made it out, but bigger pressing life issues got in the way. Hustler and Max II are both repaired after spring Ohio disasters. Now to rebuild an Attex so the kid can ride all weekend without massive breakdowns

Yeah, we missed you Brian, but life happens. Happy to hear you got max and hustler back in order. Bright side is you'll be ready for next year. Wyatt seems to really enjoy that attex. Jon ran the wild wolf i built all weekend with no breaks, a couple stucks but no breaks, first time out with no issues. Woohoo.

Had a great time with everyone again this year, as Rick mentioned we missed the big ride when everyone was stuck on the powerlines as we were stuck in the peanut butter attempting to get there and did not get to ride with everyone this year. We got off to what seemed like an even later daily start than last year after we swore to start earlier and come back, that naturally led to late night rides. We had a afternoon ride on Sunday that was nice, no traffic, no much mud and I think my high centering was the only stuck, we did get wet.

See ya next time.

Wow Rick by the time I got there were only 2 machines stuck, but the Mudd Ox wasn't really stuck it was out of fuel, once Ralph filled that machine up he pulled right out of that mud, it was very, very impressive.

Had a great time as always. Conditions were typical wet busco, which means peanut butter and stuck machines. Enjoyed riding with everybody and hanging out with great people. Did not get to ride with a few people this time but will next time. Glad i missed the power line mess, that area was the same if not worse in april when we went. Happy to say i got a lot of good quality time with my family, thanks everyone for coming. Have short video of power line conditions. See y'all next time

This is why we love BUSCO BEACH. A very special THANK YOU to ONLYONCE(Keith) MATT and Nick Oxender, Matt answered my distress call he got Nick on it. We went over what might have happened and the next morning, BAM, we were out. This is why my wife LOVES Matt. Keith was there carrying 5 gallons of diesel threw 2 feet of mud to us. Dan Edwards was there asking if he could do anything. Thank you guys, THANK YOU

Ralph: Happy to return the favor. You both are always there to help when I need a tug.

Drew: Thanks for putting the video together.

My family and I had a great time out there. The mud was really thick all day Saturday, but the early evening rain seemed to soften it up to make for an awesome night ride. Thank you Jim and Rick for the expert leading and planning.

I will schedule the April ride as soon as I know when Mud Bash is so we can avoid it. I am not a big fan of the massive crowds and I know a few others feel the same.

Here is a video of some pics and footage my wife got while riding. You get to see a lot of my hat.

well...yes , it was definately extreme mud conditions. not only was there alot , but as stated it was thick, sticky , and deep . my max 2 highboy did great with the tracks . it had'nt got stuck at all till we hit the power lines . without thinking about it , i plowed in there with everyone else . after 300 ft. , that was it . i had lost a track . nothing i could do , so slowly made my way to the mud ox and helped with that till it was getting dark. so my and ralphs mud ox spent the night out there . ( who's going to steal them ? ) with the help of dan , keith , and xbuns on saturday , 2 machines pulled me out . got the track back on and we made it back to camp 5 hrs. later . thanks for all the help guys !! it was still a fun time , just more challenging . johnboy va.

Dan,
Sorry you had a rough time out there, but at least you had company. Thank you for letting my daughter ride with you and your grand-daughter. She had fun and talked about her adventure with her new friend and her grampa.

I have some pics and video to post. Hopefully tonight.

Love that MaxIV and I appreciate you letting my grand daughter ride the quad, she had a blast.

After power washing the thrown track it slipped right back on without a problem, I kinda pushed the machine really hard to see if it would throw a track, well it did, and it happened at the worst time. There wasn't a soul around to help me load that mud laden track into my machine, well I pushed the limits and found out just what not to do. Sorry folks. no video this time, the driving conditions were so extreme that I had to focus on what I was doing

I have never had an Argo so dirty, must have had over 200 pounds of mud on the machine, the clay sticks when wet but washes off easier than Texas mud, one set of ADAIR TRACKS WEIGHS 100 POUNDS, i WILL BET THEY WERE OVER 300 POUNDS WITH ALL THE MUD CAKED ON THEM.
