Bull Run ride

[Delton]

@huntinbuddy2 can follow me if he goes.

I'm bringing the Farm Rig and my brother because he wants to get some training before going to RRB.

Let's shoot for 09:00 central.

We need to meet up around 8-8:15 to make it there by 9. It's not very far from Huntland but it's slow winding country roads.

My wife is the one in the passenger seat saying "you got this, hit that mud hole, it ain't bad". I ain't scared of mud either but have no intentions on tearing my rig up.

We don't tear it up either but I don't want someone mad saying I didn't warn them.

Delton, help me remember...what have we broke out there? Is it only Dgann's steering?

We've lost hub caps and knocked tires off but that's about it.

We're flexible, if it needs to be half an hour later or so that will be no problem.

Yeah pretty sure that's it. It won't tear stuff up. You "can" tear it up there but you gotta drive like a crazy person (or a drunk person). There's some rocks that you'll catch a skid plate on but nothing that'll destroy your rig.

Nah I see no problem with 9. It'll be fun trying to turn all those trailers around lol

20-24' is about max.

24' probably needs to be goose neck.

If the water is too high, we may have to drop trailers to spin them around.

I was gonna use the Expedition but maybe the truck would be better choice. Can never have too many 4x4s lol.

I'm not afraid of a little shower here and there but what if it's real bad? Push off until Sunday?

By the way, we will probably make "the loop". It will be nasty with all the rain. Be prepared for scratches, dents on the skids and mud everywhere!

If y'all wait till Sunday I can ride!!!!

And rocky!

Some mud can be avoided...some can't. If anyone wants to become a "renegade", I've got one sticker but you got to make the loop without going around obstacles.

I don't plan on going around any obstacles and I expect to need the winch! Should be an awesome day if Harvey doesn't take a leak on us.

The loop is a booger!!! Been up it twice and broke something each time!!!

Yeah, if they're calling for that much rain on Friday for Saturday's forecast we may have to call it off. Hopefully it will be a lighter chance of rain
