I had a great time at the Badlands. I left the goodyear mtr’s at home so I could test out my new bfg t/a ko street tires. I am totally impressed by them. They always had traction even on the steepest hills. They also performed well in the mud. I did have to take the strap to get out of one mud hole. If I had the mtr’s on I think I might have made it out on my own.
The trails were awesome. The hills were dry and the mud was deep and sticky. We did alot of exploring. I tried to stay off the trails I had run previously. We spent a few hours lost in the woods along the west side of green. That’s where I popped a bead. I didn’t bring my hi-lift, so I had to dig a hole to get my tire off. The skids and boulderbars took a beating.
This hill is about three stories high and shaped like a construction cone, Strait up and strait down. I didn’t want to go too fast and hit the tree that was just over the other side so I took it slower than I should have and high centered myself on the top.
You can see the look of terror on my face.

Here I am wondering what to do now.
Backing down was not an option due to a tree that looked like it wanted a piece of me. I had the front and rear wheel spinning in the Air.
Somehow I was able to back down a few feet and step on the gas, which allowed me to get the front end far enough over that gravity and the sliders took over and I was on my way down again. That one had my adrenaline pumping!
Hear i am enjoying the flying insects. I brought the hi-lift base but not the jack. The scissor jack w/ the base worked, I just had to dig the wheel out a little
The spare is on and ready to roll (check out the flex)
Time for a snack. It's not easy to eat a carmel apple and run the trails at the same time.
Gotta do the tube and crank up the tunes.
Got Mud? I do! All the way upto the boulderbars.
and I almost made it out!
Now I have to clean off the mud in the pond.
Looking for Bogdan's summer house.
I found it but he wasn't home.
Took a final ride though the stream and headed to the gate. We were the only trucks there all day.
Gotta fill up before I head home $1.99/ gallon. You can see I am excited!
I got a few new beauty marks when I planted my front bumper straight into the ground. I didn't get a picture of that since we were trying to get to the gate before it closed. We made it out with 2 minutes to spare.
