Please correct me if I am wrong but I think there was only maybe a couple of P5’s at the last takeover? I was just wondering how well they handled the terrain and trails. Were some trails more hazardous and did y’all flip over ever? Any to avoid or use best judgement and hope? Do you air down up there? Just looking for insights before I go in April. Thanks a gazillion!

You will be fine. Nothing to worry about. A stock 500 can get around the entire park with little trouble. Now, if you want challenging. Just let us know.
As for air pressure. Recomend what it calls for due to the rocky terrain and to help avoid tire pinch.

FWIW I rode Brimstone last year with a group of hard core guys that only care about extreme trails. We rode all damned day and did less than 65 miles. I fell over once, but so did a Can-Am and a wildcat 700 sport with a long arm kit. My P5 is a bit taller than some of the RZR's and clearly not as wide, but I still kept up and ended up on top of the same hills. RRB is not any worse or better,I am told it has the same terrain as Brimstone, it's just down the road a bit. In reality there is always a "Bunny hill", and depending on the mood of the drivers some would go that route to get on top of the hill to take pics etc.., so you can typically take one a those.

I wish I was as short as you guys. I imagine you have no problem fitting in your pioneer 500s. As much as I love mine, sometimes I feel like I’m driving a clown car.


At 6'4" I feel a little cramped...I cant imagine at 6'9" !!!
